any unevenness in the concrete in order to get a solid foundation at all points.
4. When setting machine on a oor that has any surface irregularities, shims should be used to
correct this condition to the greatest extent possible.
5. There are 4 holes in the base for mounting the machine permanently to a smooth, solid, and level oor.
