Clean Up
The unpainted surfaces are coated with a waxy oil to protect them from corrosion during ship- ment. Remove this protective coating with a sol- vent cleaner or
Gasoline and petroleum products have low flash points and could cause an explosion or fire if used to clean machinery. DO NOT use gasoline or petroleum products to clean the machinery.
Many of the solvents commonly used to clean machinery can be toxic when inhaled or ingest- ed. Lack of ventilation while using these sol- vents could cause seri- ous personal health risks or fire. Take precautions from this hazard by only using cleaning solvents in a well ventilated area.
Site Considerations
Workbench Load
Although adjustable feet are included with your mill/drill, It is strongly recommended you bolt your machine to a sturdy workbench that will not tip. Refer to the Machine Data Sheet for the weight and footprint specifications of your machine. Some workbenches may require additional rein- forcement to support both the machine and the workpiece.
Working Clearances
Consider existing and anticipated needs, size of material to be processed through each machine, and space for auxiliary stands, work tables or other machinery when establishing a location for your new machine. See Figure 5 for the minimum working clearances.
