3. INSTALLATION
Weight Load
Check the Machine Specification plate mounted on the rear of the machine for the weight
of the machine. Make sure that the surface, the machine is placed on, will bear the weight
of the machine and any additional equipment that may be installed. This should include the
heaviest workpiece that could be used, when assessing the weight of the machine
Space Allocation
Consider the largest size of workpiece that will be processed through the machine and provide
enough space around the machine to adequately handle the largest workpiece or any acces-
sory that may be used. With permanent installations, leave enough space around the machine
to open or remove doors/covers as required by the maintenance and for service. See footprint

Environment
The physical environment where the machine is operated is important for safe operation and
longevity of the machine components. For best results, operate this machine in a dry environ-
ment that is free from excessive moisture, hazardous chemicals, airborne abrasives, or extreme
conditions. Extreme conditions for this type of machinery are generally those that are outside a
temperature range of 5°– 40°C. The environment should not be subject to vibration, shocks,
or bumps.
