Lifting & Placing
Straining or crushing injury
may occur from improperly
lifting machine or some of
its parts. To reduce this risk,
get help from other people
and use a forklift (or other
lifting equipment) rated for
weight of this machine.
To lift and place shear on workbench:
1.
Move shear to installation location while it is
still on shipping pallet.
2.
To avoid damage from lifting straps, remove
M6-1 x 12 cap screws and 6mm flat washers
(14 on G0828, 16 on G0829) securing lower
cover, blade guard, and upper cover, (see
Figure 6).

connecting lifting straps (G0828 shown).
3.
Remove fasteners securing shear to pallet.
Save hardware for mounting in Step 7.
4.
Position straps under shear and attach to
forklift. Or, with help from others, lift shear
onto workbench and proceed to Step 6.
5.
Use forklift to raise shear. Remove pallet,
then lower shear onto workbench.
6.
Re-install guard and covers removed in
Step 2.

7.
Fasten shear to workbench as recommended
in Bench Mounting.
Bench Mounting
The base of this machine has mounting holes
that allow it to be fastened to a workbench or
other mounting surface to prevent it from moving
during operation and causing accidental injury or
damage.
The strongest mounting option is a "Through
Mount" (see example below) where holes are
drilled all the way through the workbench—and
hex bolts, washers, and hex nuts are used to
secure the machine in place.

Another option is a "Direct Mount" (see example
below) where the machine is secured directly to
the workbench with lag screws and washers.
