Site Considerations

Site Considerations
Floor Load
Refer to the Machine Data Sheet on Page 3 for
the weight and footprint specifications of your
machine. Some residential floors may require
additional reinforcement to support both the
machine and operator.
Placement Location
Consider existing and anticipated needs, size of
material to be processed through each machine,
and space for auxiliary stands, work tables, other
machinery, and the operator when establishing a
location for your new machine. See Figure 5 for
the minimum clearance dimensions.

Lighting
Lighting should be bright enough to eliminate
shadow in the working zones of the machine and
prevent eye strain. Follow local electrical codes
for proper installation of new lighting.
Children and visitors may be
seriously injured if unsuper-
vised. Lock all entrances to
the shop when you are away.
DO NOT allow unsupervised
children or visitors in your
shop at any time!

Moving & Placing
Moving & Placing
Base Unit
The Model G0484 is a
heavy machine. Serious
personal injury may occur
if safe moving methods
are not used. To be safe,
get assistance and use
power equipment to move
the shipping crate and
remove the machine from
the crate.
NOTICE
The G0484 is designed to be lifted from the
base. DO NOT lift your mill/drill from the
headstock. Failure to heed this notice will
cause damage to your mill/drill and void the
warranty.
To lift the G0484 from the base, remove both side
panels of the base (see Figure 6). Carefully place
the lift forks completely through the base cavity.
Be sure to use assistance in this process and only
lift the mill/drill enough to clear floor obstacles as
you move it to its permanent position.
