Lifting & Placing
To lift and place machine into position:
1. Move shipping crate next to workbench or
stand, then unbolt machine from pallet.
2. Move machine work table as close to column
as possible, and raise headstock to its high-
est position. This will help balance machine
when moving.
3. Tighten Z-Axis and table locks (see Page 3)
to avoid sudden shifts when lifting.
4. Position a lifting sling under headstock, as
shown in Figure 7. Connect sling ends to a
forklift, then place machine on workbench.

Another option is a "Direct Mount" (see example
below) where the machine is secured directly to
the workbench with lag screws and washers.
The base of this machine has mounting holes
that allow it to be fastened to a workbench or
other mounting surface to prevent it from moving
during operation and causing accidental injury or
damage.
The strongest mounting option is a "Through
Mount" (see example below) where holes are
drilled all the way through the workbench—and
hex bolts, washers, and hex nuts are used to
secure the machine in place.
