2. Installation
Hex head
bolt
2.2 Location
The machine should be installed in a well-lit area, set up on a solid oor base of concrete
or similar. Wooden oors should ideally be avoided.
Using a spirit level, laid across / along the traverse rails, the machine can be leveled easily,
suitable metal packing may be placed under the cabinet chassis feet.
2.1 Handling
The weight of the machine is indicated on the plate on
the front of the machine.
If the machine is supplied crated, it can be moved by a
suitable forklift or pallet truck under the crate base (skid).
Once the lid and sides of the crate have been removed,
the machine remains bolted to the base (skid).
LIFTING WITH CHAINS/STRAPS/FORKS MUST ONLY
BE CARRIED OUT AS INDICATED BY LABELS ON
THE MACHINE NOT BY MEANS OF THE TRAVERSE GUIDE RAILS.
2.3 For transit purposes, the blade-mounting bar is locked in position at both ends. Some units
may be shipped with a hex head bolt in the right hand clamp. If so, the clamp lock down
lever is in the tool drawer of the machine cabinet. Remove replace the hex head bolt with
the lever and tighten down.
The hex head bolt on the left-hand clamp should be eased off and adjusted to permit
rotation of the mounting bar with a small amount of resistance.
Do not release the right hand clamp (lock down lever) until the weight has been taken on
the angle control lever. For all subsequent use only the lock down lever will be used to hold
the mounting bar in position. If the lock down lever does not appear to be applying enough
force, the hex head bolt on the left-hand needs to be a little tighter.
