T31566 Mobile Base (Mfd. Since 08/19)

8.  With the help of an assistant, or proper lifting 

equipment,  lift  and  position  machine  inside 
mobile base (see 

Figure 9).

Figure 9. Example of machine properly placed 

inside mobile base.

9.  Verify machine is properly seated on mobile-

base corner pads, it is free of wobbles, and 
there is no deflection in mobile base. 

 — 

Deflection: If any deflection exists, verify 
all  fasteners  are  securely  tightened  and 
mobile  base  is  properly  assembled.  If 
this  does  not  solve  the  problem,  verify 
machine does not exceed the rated weight 
limit listed in 

Specifications on Page 1.

 — 

Wobbles:  Wobbles  can  easily  be  elimi-
nated  by  placing  an  appropriately  sized 
shim  between  machine  and  mobile  base 
where needed.

If your machine is oddly shaped or too heavy to 
lift  into  the  mobile  base,  you  can  assemble  the 
mobile base around your machine as an alternate 
option  for  assembly.  Always  have  an  assistant 
stabilize the machine during assembly.

To assemble mobile base around machine:

1.  Install foot pedal plunger and spring into each 

corner bracket (see 

Figure 10), and attach a 

rubber foot (with M10-1.5 hex nut) to the bot-

BOTH hex bolts must be secured against 

side rail in each end of corner brackets. DO 

NOT load machine onto mobile base until all 

bolts have been firmly tightened. Improper 

tightening or only using one bolt can result 

in collapse or tipping when moving machine 

around later, which could result in crushing 

injury or property damage.
