5. Unpacking
Unload the machine using an overhead crane using straps with sufficient capacity and eye
bolts. Make sure that the machine is in balance by moving the tailstock and the saddle to the
right side of the machine before carefully lifting the machine and placing it on the floor.
6. Cleaning
Before putting the machine into operation, it will need to be thoroughly cleaned of any anti-
rust grease, use white spirit or kerosene to clean all of the bright metal surfaces, do not use
lacquer thinner or any other caustic solvents which could damage the paint work. Once the
machine is clean, apply a thin layer of machine oil to all of the bright work.
7. Installation
Place this machine onto a solid concrete floor, make sure that there is sufficient space around
the machine to make the operation and maintenance processes as easy as possible. Use a
precision level on the bedways to make sure that the machine is perfectly level then tighten
the foundation bolts evenly before re-checking the level.
