D2260A Mini Mobile Base Instructions
Preparation
The machine base must sit on the four corner brackets of
the mobile base shown in
Figure 3
.
To prepare the mobile base for assembly, do these
steps:
1.
If you haven't already done so, make sure the
weight and footprint size of your machine are within
the specifications of the mobile base shown in
Specifications
on
Page 1
.
Note:
Anything extending outward within a 2" high
band (see
Figure 4
) around the base of the machine
may interfere with the installation of the machine
on the base, so be sure to account for that during
assembly.
— If the weight and footprint size of your machine
do not exceed the specifications of the mobile
base, go to
Step 2
.
— If the weight and footprint size of your machine
are not within the specifications of the Model
D2260A mobile base, DO NOT attempt to mount
your machine onto this base. Choose a larger Shop
Fox mobile base, such as the Model D2057A or
D2058A, that will accommodate the footprint of
your machine.
— If the footprint of the machine is too small for
the mobile base, complete
Steps 2-3
, assemble
the mobile base, then follow the instructions in
Making a Base Plate
on
Page 10
.
2.
Determine which end of the machine you want to
swivel.
Note:
It is usually most convenient to mount the
swivel casters to the side of the machine that will
be pushed. This provides the greatest degree of
maneuverability and control.
— If a long and narrow configuration is required,
such as with a jointer or edge sander, it is best to
mount the swivel casters on one of the short ends.
