INSTALLATION

All the "left", "right", "front", "rear" directions
in this manual are as viewed by the operator
when facing the control box and machine
controls.

LOCATION

1.
Position the machine to allow adequate space for all
your sawing needs with maximum convenience.
2.
Locate the machine to provide sufficient clearance
for: (a) Material loading and unloading; (b) All door
openings; (c) Head elevation; (d) Maintenance and
lubrication procedures; (e) Operation of the any
supplied machine accessories.
3.
Approximate floor dimensions for the machine are
shown on pages 1, 2 and 3.
4.
Accessories such as roller stock conveyors will
require additional working area.

OSHA NOTICE!!

OSHA Regulation No. 1910.212 (5B).
Machines designed for a fixed location shall
be securely anchored to prevent walking or
moving.

UNPACKING

1.
The machine and other parts and supplies were
fastened to a wooden skid before shipment.
DO NOT remove the red metal bracket holding
the saw head to the vise base until the
machine has been lifted and positioned at its
permanent location.
2.
Remove all other protective covers, strapping,
crating, etc. Then: (a) Remove the bolts or screws
attaching the machine to the shipping skid.
3.
Inspect the machine for broken or damaged parts.
Refer to this manual's inside front cover for damage
claim procedures.

CLEANING

1.
If necessary, use solvent to remove the rust-
preventative coating applied to the machine's
exposed bare metal surfaces before shipping.

LIFTING

Never lift the machine by its sawing head.
1.
Lift pockets located on the lower portion of the base
weldment are provided for lifting purposes.
2.
Use a fork lift truck to lift the machine to its
permanent location. Lifting should be done from
the front and the forks should be a minimum of six
(6) feet (2 meters) long to sufficiently support the
machine. Net weight for the standard machine is
approximately 3000 pounds (1360.8 kg). Added
features and options will increase the weight by as
much as 500 pounds (226.8 kg).
The use of an overhead hoist is NOT
recommended.
3.
Optional roller stock conveyors can be lifted into
position using a fork lift or other means that provides
adequate safety precautions.

FLOOR INSTALLATION

1.
Before placing the machine down, install one (1)
M16 leveling screw and nut into each base foot
pad. Then: (a) Adjust the leveling screws to
extend an equal distance through the mounting
pad - approximately one-half inch (12.7 mm); (b)
Tighten the jam nuts. Now lower the machine in
the desired location.
2.
Remove the bracket holding the saw head to the
base. Save this bracket for use in case machine
relocation becomes necessary at a future
date.
3.
Place a machinist's level on the vise bed. Then
adjust the leveling screws until the vise base wear
plates are level and weight of the machine is
resting evenly on all mounting pads.
4.
Adjust the two (2) leveling screws on the right side
of the saw base to raise the machine slightly to
allow coolant to drain towards the open end of the
coolant pan and drop into the reservoir.
5.
Install anchoring screws through the base pad holes
next to the leveling screw locations.
Machine must rest evenly on all pads.
