Site Considerations
Floor Load
Refer to the Machine Data Sheet for the weight
and footprint specifications of your machine.
Some residential floors may require additional
reinforcement to support both the machine and
operator.
Working Clearance
Consider existing and anticipated needs, size of
material to be processed through each machine,
and space for auxiliary stands, work tables or
other machinery when establishing a location for
your new machine. See Figure
10 for the mini-
mum working clearances.
Unsupervised children and
visitors entering a shop
could suffer serious per
-
sonal injury. Ensure child
and visitor safety by keep
-
ing all entrances to the
shop locked at all times.
DO NOT allow unsuper
-
vised children or visitors
in the shop at any time.
Clean Up
Any unpainted surfaces are coated with a waxy
oil to protect them from corrosion during ship
-
ment. Remove this protective coating with a sol
-
vent cleaner or citrus-based degreaser such as
Grizzly’s G7895 Degreaser. To clean thoroughly,
some parts may need to be removed. For opti
-
mum performance from your machine, make
sure you clean all moving parts or sliding
contact surfaces that are coated. Avoid chlo
-
rine-based solvents as they will damage painted
surfaces should they come in contact.
Gasoline and petroleum
products have low flash
points and could explode
if used to clean machin
-
ery. DO NOT use gasoline
or petroleum products to
clean the machinery.
Lack of ventilation while
using solvents could
cause serious person
-
al health risks, fire, or
environmental hazards.
Always work in a well
ventilated area to pre
-
vent the accumulation
of dangerous fumes.
Supply the work area
with a constant source
of fresh air.
