Lighting

Lighting should be bright enough to eliminate shadow in the working zones of the machine and prevent eye strain. Follow local electrical codes for proper installation of new lighting.

Children and visitors may be seriously injured if unsuper- vised. Lock all entrances to the shop when you are away. DO NOT allow unsupervised children or visitors in your shop at any time!

Moving & Placing

Moving & Placing

Base Unit

The Model G0484 is a heavy machine. Serious personal injury may occur if safe moving methods are not used. To be safe, get assistance and use power equipment to move the shipping crate and remove the machine from the crate.

NOTICE

The G0484 is designed to be lifted from the base. DO NOT lift your mill/drill from the headstock. Failure to heed this notice will cause damage to your mill/drill and void the warranty.

To lift the G0484 from the base, remove both side panels of the base (see Figure 6). Carefully place the lift forks completely through the base cavity.

Be sure to use assistance in this process and only lift the mill/drill enough to clear floor obstacles as you move it to its permanent position.
