2.8.3 MACHINE LEVELING
To ensure a smooth, vibration free operation, the machine should be properly
leveled and its legs should rest evenly on the floor.
To this effect, the machine is supplied with adjustable legs and rubber pad
(figure 2.8.1, item 1); in some cases, with fixed legs which do not require to be
adjusted or with pivoting wheels which have to be locked before operating the
machine.
For the leveling, proceed as follows:
- lift the machine and place the pads under the legs;
- lower the machine until the legs sit firmly on the blocks;
- adjust height from floor by tightening or loosening the adjustable legs, then
check the levelling with respect to the machined surface of the head;
- make sure that the machine's weight is divided among all legs;
- lock the legs using the appropriate lock ring (figure 2.8.1, item 2).
In some cases, due to vibrations, the machine may move and consequently
cause stress to the piping; if you wish to avoid this, the leg pads can be secured
by steel rings fixed to the floor.
