LIFTING MACHINE
This machine is to be lifted in one, fully assembled piece. In order to lift the machine it needs to be in the following
condition:
• Saw head in the down position
• Shuttle vise fully forward
• Coolant tank emptied
The H14A may be lifted from the FRONT with a forklift, which has a minimum capacity of 4500 lbs (2040 kg) and a fork
length of 72” (1830mm).
The machine is shipped on sections of 4 x 4 tubing. The tubing blocks should be removed prior to locating the machine
onto the shop oor.
FOUNDATION, LEVELING AND ANCHORING
Machine location should be carefully selected. A at concrete oor area should be chosen. It should have enough free
space surrounding the machine to enable free access for safe operation and maintenance. The machine should be
leveled in both directions (from side to side & from front to back), using a level on the machine out-feed table. Six leveling
screws are provided (these are shipped in the coolant tank), and should be installed. One at each front and rear corner
of the machine base, one inside the power pack enclosure, and one at the base of the drive side post. Steel plates are
provided (also shipped in the coolant tank) to be placed under each screw to prevent their sinking into the concrete oor.
In cases when the machine is to be anchored permanently, anchoring holes are provided. They are located next to the
leveling screw holes.
NOTE:
In some cases leveling the saw in-feed and conveyor with a slight slope towards the blade is recommended. This will
prevent coolant from running down the raw stock. (This is especially true when cutting tubing or bundles).
