The components of this machine are very heavy and workpieces can be cumbersome and have sharp edges. Always wear gloves and fully support components and workpieces. Get help if necessary. Failure to do this may result in personal injury.
3.With the help of an assistant, slide and lift the upper roller out from the base. Remove the workpiece from the upper roller, then place the upper roller back onto the base (Figure 31).
