Moving & Placing

Base Unit

This is an extremely heavy machine. Serious personal injury may occur if safe moving methods are not followed. To be safe, you will need assistance and a forklift or a hoist when removing the machine from the crate. Use a chain or a lifting strap with a minimum of 1000 lbs. lifting capacity. If the chain or lifting strap breaks, serious personal injury may occur.

Special care should be taken when moving this bandsaw. Only use the following methods to lift or move this bandsaw.

To move and place the bandsaw:

1.Use a forklift to move the bandsaw on the pallet to its final location.

2.Unbolt the bandsaw from the pallet.

3.Install the eye bolt shown in Figure 11 if it is not already installed (make sure it is threaded all the way in), then place the lifting hook through the eye bolt and lift slowly with a forklift.

4.Remove the pallet and slowly set the bandsaw into position.

Mounting

We recommend mounting your new machine to the floor. Because floor materials may vary, floor mounting hardware is not included. You may also mount your machine to a mobile base that has wheel locking or wheel retracting capabilities that keep the mobile base from rolling when not in use.

Bolting to Concrete Floors

Lag shield anchors with lag bolts (Figure 12) and anchor studs (Figure 13) are two popular meth- ods for anchoring an object to a concrete floor. We suggest you research the many options and methods for mounting your machine and choose the best that fits your specific application.

Figure 12. Typical lag shield anchor and bolt.

NOTICE

Anchor studs are stronger and more per- manent alternatives to lag shield anchors; however, they will stick out of the floor, which may cause a tripping hazard if you decide to move your machine.
