Locke RS-5100 Assembly Instructions And Set-Up, Uncrating the Sharpener, Locating The Grinder

SECTION 2—ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS AND SET-UP

Uncrating the Sharpener

Refer to Figures 2-1 and 2-2:

1.First, remove the eight (8) bolts securing he sharp- ener to the pallet. Fig. 2-1 (#1)

2.Using a fork lift, narrow the forks so they slide un- der the drain pan from the rear. Be careful to avoid hoses and electrical components. Make sure that the forks do not slide all the way up to the back of the Control Panel, Fig. 2-2 (#2), but have deep enough to lift the sharpener such that it is not unbalanced or top heavy.

Locating The Grinder

NOTE

The following instructions apply mainly to a Combination Sharpener only. However, it is the manufacturer’s recommendation that, if space is available, this locating procedure be followed:

Place the sharpener in a location with adequate light- ing. It is considered that 13,400 Lumens at the working surface is adequate. This amount of lighting can be obtained by two (2) 8-foot fluorescent lights at a mini- mum height of 8 feet.

Leave a minimum of four (4) feet between the controls and the wall in back of the operator, if such is the case.

The sharpener should face an open area of the shop as the reel units will be installed from the “shop side” of the sharpener.

Securing the Sharpener

IMPORTANT

Read steps 1 through 9 before starting. Im- proper leveling may cause distortion of the sharpener bed.

1.Remove any brackets that have been installed for shipping.

2.Attach a stabilizer leg to each end, but do not tighten. Fig. 2-1 (#4).

3.Mark the floor through the four (4) holes at the base of the sharpener and the two (2) at each sta- bilizer leg. Fig. 2-1 (#1).

4.Remove the legs, shift sharpener out of the way, drill holes in the floor and insert anchors.

5.Shift the sharpener back over the anchors and replace the legs.

6.Holding the legs to the side wall of the sharp- ener, fasten bolts until finger tight. Fig. 2-1 (#4)

7.Place an engineer’s level on the two (2) round bars directly over each end of the cast bed. Level the sharpener front to back and left to right. Use flat shim stock under the four bolts around the base of the sharpener for proper leveling, if needed.

8.Tighten the anchor bolts securely to the floor. Fig. 2-1 (#1)

IMPORTANT

Do not tighten the stabilizer legs to sharp- ener before securing them to the floor.

9.Tighten the stabilizer legs (#5) to sharpener through slots at (#4).
