alignment condition.

i) With foot bolts loosened, move machine feet keeping an eye on the smiley on
the display screen.
ii) Note the following sign convention – Positive feet values indicate that the
machine feet should be removed towards viewer, while negative feet values
suggest the moving of machine feet away from viewer.
Do NOT attempt to move the machine using heavy sledgehammer blows. This
can cause bearing damage, and also produce inaccurate Move results. Jack
bolts on the feet or other mechanical or hydraulic devices are recommended for
moving machines.
iii) Tighten anchor bolts and recheck alignment by taking another set of measure-
ments and viewing results. If they are in tolerance, then the machines are
aligned.
