—If using mounting hardware that does not allow for adjustment, level the lathe by placing metal shims between the lathe base and the floor before bolting it down.

Bolting to Concrete Floors

Lag screws and anchors, or anchor studs (see Figure 20), are two popular methods for bolt- ing machinery to a concrete floor. We suggest you research the many options and methods for mounting your machine and choose the best one for your specific application.
