5.1 Inspecting Shipment
This machine has been carefully packed to prevent damage during shipment. However, claims for
damage or loss are the responsibility of the recipient. Inspect all shipments as soon as they are
received. If there is any noticeable damage, note it on the freight bill. Visual and/or hidden damage
must be reported to the claims department of the carrier within 15 days. Contact your dealer if you
need any assistance. Check the contents of the box against the packing list on page 7. Make sure
there are no missing items.
5.2 Uncrating
The Spartan 150 weighs approximately 200 lbs (91 kg). DO NOT risk personal injury or damage by
attempting to move machinery with makeshift equipment or inadequate help. This machine is
shipped on a wooden skid and enclosed in a protective, wooden frame and corrugated carton.
Remove the carton by removing the nails or staples holding it to the wooden frame and lift it straight
up over the cutter. Remove the wooden uprights and cut the plastic straps. Carefully lift machine off
skid and set on to work surface or optional stand.
5.3 Cleaning
After unpacking, wipe down all machine panels and surfaces with a clean cloth.
5.4 Power Hook-Up
SHOCK HAZARD! NEVER CUT THE GROUND TERMINAL from a three-
prong plug to fit a two-prong socket. Possible shock could cause personal injury or death. Hire a
qualified electrician to provide a power source that meets electrical requirements and all local
electrical codes.
It is the customer’s responsibility to provide a properly grounded receptacle that meets the power
requirements specified on the nameplate of this machine, as well as all local electrical codes. Have a
qualified electrician install one if your location is not so equipped.
