Site Considerations

Bench Load

Refer to the Machine Data Sheet for the weight and footprint specifications of your machine. Some workbenches may require additional rein- forcement to support both the machine and the workpiece.

Placement Location

Consider existing and anticipated needs, size of material to be processed through each machine, and space for auxiliary stands, work tables or other machinery when establishing a location for your new machine. See Figure 5 for the minimum working clearances.

Mounting

The Model H8126 must be mounted to a work- bench to avoid accidental tipping. If you intend to use the grinder for portable applications, mount it to a heavy plywood base (at least 1" thick) that is wide enough to prevent tipping or rocking during use, then clamp the plywood base to the work- bench or table.

To mount the grinder:

1.Once you have confirmed that your grinder is running properly, mount it to a workbench through the holes in the base using the dimensions in Figure 6. DO NOT overtighten the mounting bolts or you will crack the base.
