SECURING THE MACHINE TO THE FLOOR

- CAUTION -

The hold-down brackets MUST be installed if the machine is to be used with a bar
feed system.

- NOTE -

The lag screws, flat washers, and expansion shields used to secure the hold-down
brackets to the floor are provided with the machine

1. Align the hold-brackets with the mounting holes on the machine base. Refer to Figure 1.4.

2. Mark two drilling locations on the floor for each bracket.

3. Drill 3/4 inch [19 millimeter] diameter holes, 4 inches [102 millimeters] deep.

4. Remove any debris from the drilled holes.
