Installation
Machine Location:
DO NOT place the machine in the following conditions:
• Places where the machine would be exposed directly to solar rays or a heat
source
• Places where there are usual changes of air, relative humidity, and/or relative
humidity is too high (75%)
• Places with a lot of dust and/or high concentrations of corrosive gases
• Places near a vibration source
• Places with less than 4” of concrete foundation
For best results, place the machine in following conditions:
• Place on concrete foundation at least 4” thick
• Medium temperature 71.6°F – 76°F
• Air relative humidity below 75%
• Allow for enough space around the machine to access parts as necessary
• Allow for safety area of 2-3 ft. around the machine to discourage people or
objects from being too close to the machine while it’s operating.
Transport, Loading and Unloading:
Follow these instructions for transportation and loading machine:
• Check that all mobile parts are fixed with elements provided by FlexCNC (See

and crane have enough capacity to safely handle the weight
• Be very cautions of areas where straps can touch the machine and damage any
of the machine’s components, paint, or straps during loading and unloading

under the machine when it is lowered into its final position.
• Before loading or unloading ensure the load is balanced
