T31566 Mobile Base (Mfd. Since 08/19)
Using Mobile Base
1. DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!
2. With machine mounted on mobile base, lift
foot pedals to raise rubber feet. If needed,
adjust feet further to ensure feet do not drag
during move. Refer to
Adjusting Rubber
Feet on Page 7 for details.
— If floor is uneven, retract feet completely to
eliminate the chance of the pads dragging.
3. Check to make sure machine pathway is
clear of all obstructions.
4. Push machine from lowest possible point to
avoid tipping it over, and move it to its new
location. The best control is usually achieved
by pushing from swivel caster side of base.
— If the machine is large, get an assistant to
help stabilize the machine while it is being
moved.
5. Adjust each foot until it touches floor, then
rotate each foot so it firmly presses against
ground without raising casters.
6. Check machine to make sure it is stable in
its new location, and make sure machine is
clear of any obstructions before reconnecting
power and turning machine
ON.
To reduce risk of serious injury when using
this mobile base:
1. LOCKING FEET. Do not operate machine
on mobile base unless all mobile base feet
firmly contact floor. Using the machine on
base when it is not secured could result in
a loss of workpiece control.
2. MACHINE STABILITY. Test for stability
after placing the machine in its new location.
Adjust feet so they all touch the ground,
then push on machine at several locations,
making sure it is not off balance. The hex
nuts can be adjusted up to top of foot
assembly to lock foot height setting.
Before moving machine and mobile base,
check to make sure pathway is clear of
any hoses, wires, tools or shop debris. An
abrupt impact with an object along path of
travel can lock a wheel and cause machine
to fall over, resulting in serious personal
injury. Disconnect machine from power
supply or dust collection before moving.
