SET UP

•Floor Load: Your vertical mill has a large weight load of 822 lbs. in a small footprint. We recommend placing this mill on a concrete floor.

•Working Clearances: Consider existing and anticipated needs, size of material to be processed through the machine, and space for auxiliary stands, work tables or other machinery when establishing a location for your vertical mill (see Figure 5).

•Lighting: Lighting should be bright enough to eliminate shadow and prevent eye strain.

•Electrical: Electrical circuits must be dedicated or large enough to handle amperage requirements. Outlets must be located near each machine, so power or extension cords are clear of high-traffic areas. Follow local electrical codes for proper installation of new lighting, outlets, or circuits.

The table and other unpainted parts of your Vertical Mill are coated with a waxy grease that protects them from corrosion during shipment. Clean this grease off with a solvent cleaner or citrus-based degreaser. DO NOT use chlorine- based solvents such as brake parts cleaner or acetone—if you happen to splash some onto a painted surface, you will ruin the finish.

NEVER use gasoline or other petroleum-based solvents to clean with. Most have low flash points, which make them extremely flammable. A risk of explosion and burning exists if these products are used. Serious personal injury may occur if this warning is ignored!

ALWAYS work in well- ventilated areas far from possible ignition sources when using solvents to clean machinery. Many solvents are toxic when inhaled or ingested. Use care when disposing of waste rags and towels to be sure they DO NOT create fire or environmental hazards.

USE helpers and power lifting equipment to lift this 6" x 26" Vertical Mill. Otherwise, serious per- sonal injury may occur.
