Site Considerations

Floor Load

Your lathe/mill is a heavy load (1200 lbs.) distribut- ed in a small footprint. Place this machine on con- crete floors only. The floor MUST be level, or the lathe/mill frame and ways may distort over time.

Placement Location

Consider existing and anticipated needs, ser- vice panel access, length of rods to be load- ed into the lathe/mill, and space for auxil- iary stands, work tables or other machinery when establishing a location for your lathe/mill (see Figure 5 for minimum wall clearances).

Unsupervised children and visitors inside your shop could cause serious per- sonal injury to themselves. Lock all entrances to the shop when you are away and DO NOT allow unsupervised children or visitors in your shop at any time!

Clean Up

The ways and other unpainted parts of your lathe/ mill are coated with a waxy grease that protects them from corrosion during shipment. Clean this grease off with a solvent cleaner or citrus-based degreaser. DO NOT use chlorine-based sol- vents such as brake parts cleaner, lacquer thin- ner, or acetone—if you happen to splash some onto a painted surface, you will ruin the finish.

Gasoline and petroleum products ignite easily. 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.
