SECURING THE TCM TO A WORKBENCH
The TCM Series Motorized Test Stand is a heavy piece of equipment and cannot normally tip over. However, if there is the possibility that users can pull against
the vertical column, then there is a risk that the machine may be pulled over.
It is required that the TCM be secured to a workbench using the two (2) tapped holes in the base of the machine. The template below shows the location of of
the two holes, and can serve as a guide for drilling two holes in the workbench to receive the two M8 mounting bolts.
