 Rails secured to fixed corner 

brackets.

x 4

Each side rail-to-corner bracket connection must have 

a minimum of two hex bolts installed, making a total 

of four bolts at each corner, as shown in Figure 11. 

Do not load a machine onto the base until all of these 

bolts  have  been  installed  and  tightened.  Loading  a 

machine  onto  the  base  before  completing  assembly 

can  result  in  the  machine  falling  or  tipping  over, 

resulting in serious personal injury. 

9. 

Thread a knob into the top of a foot post several 

turns, then insert a foot into the bottom of the foot 

post, as shown in 

Figure

. The knob shaft should 

pick up the foot when it comes in close proximity 

since the top of the foot is magnetized.

  Repeat 

Step 9

 to install the remaining knob and foot 

into the other foot post. 

11.

  With the mobile base sitting on the floor, adjust the 

knobs to raise the feet off the floor.
