Lifting & Placing
Do not attempt to lift or move this lathe without
using the proper lifting equipment (such as forklift
or crane) or the necessary assistance from other
people. Each piece of lifting equipment must be
rated for at least 2000 lbs. to support dynamic
loads that may be applied while lifting. Refer to
Needed for Setup on Page 18 for details.
To lift and move lathe:
1. Remove shipping crate top and sides, then
remove small components from shipping pal-
let.
2. Move lathe to its prepared location while it is
still attached to shipping pallet.
3. Unbolt lathe from shipping pallet.
4. To balance load for lifting, move tailstock and
carriage to extreme right end of bedway, then
lock them in place.
Note:
Before attempting to move the car-
riage, make sure the carriage lock is loose,
the half nut is disengaged, and the power
feed is disengaged (feed selection lever).
5. Remove splash guard so it does not get
damaged when lathe is raised.
6. Insert round steel bar stock through four lift-
ing holes (see
Figure 15).
Note: To properly support the lathe and
avoid damaging lathe components, bar stock
should be at least 1" diameter thick and 49"
long, so it projects 14" from both sides of the
lathe when installed.
7. Attach lifting straps to bar stock and power
lifting equipment (see
Figure 15). Make sure
there is enough space between straps and
control rod, feed rod, leadscrew and electrical
cabinet to prevent putting pressure on these
components when lifting.
8. Raise lathe a couple of inches and check bal-
ance of load. Have two other people carefully
steady lathe to help prevent it from swinging.
— If load is not safely balanced, immedi-
ately lower lathe and resolve issue before
attempting to lift it again.
9. Raise lathe enough to clear shipping pallet
and carefully remove pallet.
10. Lower lathe into position.
11. Re-install splash guard.

HEAVY LIFT!
Straining or crushing injury
may occur from improperly
lifting machine or some of
its parts. To reduce this risk,
get help from other people
and use a forklift (or other
lifting equipment) rated for
weight of this machine.
