Assembly

Before assembling your new mill/drill, deter- mine if you will bolt your stand to the floor or use machine mounts. Machine mounts, shown in Figure 5, give the advantage of fast leveling and vibration reduction. For the Model G0517, we recommend using four Grizzly Model G7159 machine mounts.

Figure 5. Machine mount example.

Bolting the machine to the floor is the strongest option, but also the most permanent.

Lag shield anchors with lag bolts (Figure 6) and anchor studs (Figure 7) are two popular methods for anchoring an object to a concrete floor.

To assemble the mill/drill:

1.Mount the stand to the floor in your desired location.

2.Place the splash tray on top of the stand, as shown in Figure 8, and align the mounting holes.

Note: Take care to install the splash tray in the same orientation as shown in Figure 8. Installing the splash tray backwards will limit column movement.

4.Fasten the base assembly to the stand with the mounting bolts, flat washers, and hex nuts provided (see Figure 9).
