Figure 15. T26599 Stand for G0768/G0769.
The T26599 Stand is specifically designed for
the G0768/G0769 and comes with pre-drilled
mounting holes that match the base of these
machines. You MUST mount your machine
to a stand or workbench to prevent it from
unexpectedly moving during operation, which
could lead to personal injury or property damage.
Follow these guidelines when mounting your
machine to ensure safe and accurate cutting
results:
Make sure stand or workbench can ade-
quately support weight of machine and mate-
rials, and that it will not move or vibrate dur-
ing operation.
Use a silicon sealant between the machine
base and chip pan to prevent coolant or other
fluids from leaking through onto the stand,
workbench, or floor.
