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 move machine into position:
1.
Move shipping crate next to workbench or
stand, then unbolt machine from pallet.
2.
Move table as close to column as possible,
and raise headstock to its highest position.
this will help balance machine when moving.
3.
tighten z-axis locks to avoid sudden shifts
when lifting.
4.
place a lifting strap under headstock, as
shown in Figure 6, connect strap ends to a
forklift, then lift and place machine.

Bench Mounting
Number of Mounting Holes ............................ 4
Diameter of Mounting Hardware .................
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.
