How to make you Alliance Machine square and level
During the initial installation of your Alliance Machine it should have been placed on a level surface. Also,
the machine should have been made square and have the wall anchors installed to help retain the position
of the machine.
Misalignment in the machine can lead to the shafts not sitting correctly, they will then begin to “wobble”, or
grind against the drive gears through out the machine. This leads to friction, friction causes heat, heat causes
expansion, and expansion causes damages and breakages. Misalignment in the machine is often reflected in
the drive gear, the bushing, and the gear reducer.
We recommend that you check your machine for alignment every six to eight months of operation.
We also suggest that after completing and repairs or part replacement on a machine that you check to
ensure alignment is correct as well.
The wall anchors that were supplied in the motor box of your machine are very important to help retain
alignment over time. They secure the top of the machine to the wall. This helps to prevent movement during
operation. Wall anchors also provide a safety against the machine tipping onto a user.
To adjust the alignment to your machine:
1 - Loosen the four thumb screws in the left and right feet.
2 - You can now push or pull the machine to the left or the right to guide it back to square.
3 - Re-tighten the four thumb screws.
4 - If need be tighten or reposition the wall anchors for more stability.
