Leveling and Alignment
4.1 Leveling and Alignment Overview
Ensuring the Dragon A400 is straight
and level is the most critical part of
the installation of the machine. Many
operational difficulties can be traced back
to improper machine installation, and the
majority of installation issues center around
the machine not being true. This process
is also covered in the Startup and Training
Manual Part 2.
4.1.1 Checking Support Beam Level
Each Support Beam section should
be checked for level side-to-side and
lengthwise using a bubble level. If the
Support Beam needs to be adjusted, use
the Swivel Levelers to adjust machine
level. The Swivel Levelers should be
installed upon assembly.
4.1.2 Adjusting Swivel Levelers
To adjust the Swivel Levelers, use a 9/16
in. wrench to loosen the jam nut and ensure it is backed off to the base of the Swivel Leveler.
Place a 5/8 in. wrench on the hex adjustment at the base of the Swivel Leveler. When viewing
from above, turn clockwise to raise the leg, turn counterclockwise to lower the leg.
