Anchor
Stud
Lag screws and anchors, or anchor studs
(below), are two popular methods for securing
machinery to a concrete floor. We suggest you
research the many options and methods for
securing your machine and choose the best one
for your specific application.
Included with your machine are five cast-iron
feet and adjustment studs. These feet are easily
installed and provide a quick and easy method
for machine leveling.
Assembly
If you desire to use the mounting feet included
with your machine, proceed as follows.
To assemble the machine:
1. Thread one jam nut on each foot stud,
and apply lithium grease or similar to the
threads on the studs to ensure that the studs
will not rust inside of the base should water
from floor cleaning activities pose a problem.
2. From the top down, thread each stud into
the machine base until the ends emerge from
the underside of the base.
3. Slide a foot under each stud, and thread each
stud into its foot until it is fully seated.
4. Tighten each stud until the machine is
positioned approximately
1
⁄2" off of the floor,
as shown in Figure 10.
5. Cut or remove the handwheel shipping
straps that tie the handwheels together.
