Where to locate your machine.
Before you remove your machine from the packaging, select the area where you will use
your machine. There are no hard and fast rules for its location, but below are a few
guidelines:
1. There should be an area at the front of the machine suitable for comfortable working.
2. There should be sufficient area at the back of the machine to allow access for
adjustments and maintenance to be conducted.
3. Adequate lighting. The better the lighting the more accurately and safely you will be able
to work.
4. Solid floor. You should select a solid flat floor, preferably concrete or something similar.
5. Locate it close to a power source and dust collection.
6. Allow an area for the storage of blanks, finished products and tools.
