Installation

Machine foundation
The machines are designed to be bolted in
position to a concrete floor or specially prepared
concrete foundation. A template showing the size
of the foundation and positioning of the
foundation bolts is delivered with each machine.
For installation on an existing concrete floor, the
floor must be at least 8" thick and of good quality.
If the floor does not meet these requirements,
then a 6-8" high concrete foundation should be
made. A prefabricated steel base is available for
mounting of machines without an additional
foundation.
Follow the instructions below when making a
concrete foundation:
Fig.
1. Decide where to place the machine and
consider maintenance requirements, i.e.
2
determine a suitable distance from the rear of
the foundation to the wall, and the distance
from the foundation to the nearest side wall.
The distance should be at least 16 and 12
inches, respectively.
Fig.
2. Break up the floor to a depth of 3 inches,
making sure that the sides of the hole slope
3
inwards - the bottom of the hole should be 5
inches longer than the upper length.
3. Wet the hole well. Brush the bottom and sides
with cement grout.
4. Prepare a casing and fill with concrete to form
foundation. Make sure the foundation is level.
Fig.
5. Use the template to position the foundation
bolts correctly - bolts are to extend 1 1/2"
4
above concrete.
NOTE: A prefabricated steel frame, designed
to be placed in the concrete instead of the
individual mounting bolts, is available.
