Moving & Placing
Base Unit
The Model G0451 is a
heavy machine that
weighs over 1300 lbs.
Serious personal injury
may occur if safe mov
-
ing methods are not fol
-
lowed. To be safe, you
will need assistance and
power equipment when
moving the shipping
crate and removing the
machine from the crate.
To remove the saw base unit from the crate
pallet:
1. Remove the top of the crate and position the
forklift forks together and directly above the
saw.
2. Place two lifting straps over the forks and
attach the ends to the lifting bolts as shown
in Figure 18.

3. Lift the saw base unit and move it to your
predetermined location.
4. Before lowering the saw into position, place
safety blocks under the frame and thread the
four foot studs into the frame at least half of
their length.
5. Remove the safety blocks and lower the saw
onto the feet as shown in
Figure 19 and
remove the forklift straps.
6. Place a level on the saw table and adjust
foot studs so the saw table is level from left-
to-right and from front-to-back. This will allow
the table to slide smoothly.
7. Lock the foot studs in position by tightening
their jam nuts against the machine body.
DO NOT lift the table saw any higher than
necessary to clear the floor. Serious per
-
sonal injury and damage to the machine
may occur if safe moving methods are not
followed.
Use lifting straps with a minimum of 1500
lbs. lifting capacity. If the lifting strap
breaks, serious personal injury may occur.
