8. Secure each end of the rails to the corner brackets
with (2) M8-1.25 x 25 hex bolt and 8mm lock nut
assemblies as shown in Figure 15. Tighten the lock
nuts against the rail.

brackets.
9. Thread the knobs into the top of each foot post
several turns, then insert a foot into the bottom
of each foot post, as shown in Figure 16. The
magnetized knob shaft should pick up the foot when
it comes in close proximity.
10. Thread the knobs down to raise the swivel casters
off the floor.
11. Lift the machine into position above the mobile base
using any necessary help, and lower the machine
onto the corner bracket pads.
12. Check to make sure the machine is properly seated
on the pads and that there is no sign of stress or
deflection in the mobile base.
— If there is any deflection, immediately remove
the machine from the base and check that all
fasteners have been tightened and the base is
properly assembled. If this does not solve the
problem, double check the weight specification of
the machine and make certain it does not exceed
the load limit listed in Specifications on Page 1.

the head of the bolt.

Each side rail-to-corner bracket connection must use
both hex bolts, making a total of four bolts at each
corner, as shown in Figure 15. Do not load a machine
onto the base until all of these bolts have been
installed and tightened. Loading a machine onto the
base before completing assembly can result in the
machine falling or tipping over, resulting in serious
personal injury.
