Mounting to Shop

Floor

The Model G9749 should be mounted to the floor. Because floor materials may vary, floor mounting hardware is not included. It is also necessary to level your machine with a precision level.

Bolting to Concrete Floors

Lag shield anchors with lag bolts (see Figure 7) and anchor studs (see Figure 8) are two popular methods 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.

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.

To mount the drill press to the floor:

1.With the drill press securely resting on the floor, shim between the floor and drill press base as required to level the drill press table.

2.Secure the drill press to the floor, but DO NOT overtighten the fasteners.

NOTICE

Shims may be required when mounting the drill press to the floor. If the floor is uneven and you tighten the mounting bolts without shims, you can crack the cast iron base. Shim any gaps between the base and the floor before fully tightening the mounting bolts.

3.Recheck the table to make sure that it is still level, and re-shim as required.

4.When the drill press is level and all gaps are shimed, securely tighten the mounting bolts.
