Leveling
Leveling machinery helps precision components
remain straight and flat during the lifespan of the
machine. Components on an improperly leveled
machine may slowly twist due to the dynamic
loads placed on the machine during operation.
For accurate planing results and to prevent
warping or twisting of cast iron base,
machine MUST be leveled from side to side
and from front to back on both ends.
Re-check the machine 24 hours after
installation, two weeks after that, and then
annually to make sure it remains level.
To level machine:
1. Slide (4) leveling pads under (4) footings at
corners of machine, as shown in
Figure 17.
Make sure center of threaded hole in footing
aligns with center of leveling pad.
2. Insert (4) M16-1.5 x 75 hex bolts with (4) M16-
1.5 jam nuts into (4) threaded holes in foot-
ings, as shown in
Figure 17.

prevent it from swinging.

let and carefully remove pallet.
