OPERATION MANUAL
The unpainted surfaces of the machine have been coated with a waxy oil to protect them from
corrosion during shipment. Remove the protective coating with a solvent cleaner or a citrus
based degreaser.
Optimum performance from your machine will be achieved when you clean all moving parts or
sliding contact surfaces that are coated with rust prevented products.
Hafco advise to avoid chlorine based solvents, such as acetone or brake parts cleaner, as they
will damage painted surfaces and strip metal should they come in contact. Always follow the
manufacturer’s instructions when using any type of cleaning product.

3. SETUP
3.1 SITE PREPARATION
When selecting the site for the machine, consider the largest size of workpiece that will be
processed through the machine and provide enough space around the machine for operat-
ing the machine safely. Consideration should be given to the installation of auxiliary equip-
ment. Leave enough space around the machine to open or remove doors/covers as required
for the maintenance and service as described in this manual.
It is recommended that the machine is anchored to the floor to prevent tipping or shifting. It
also reduces vibration that may occur during operation. The machine should be mounted on
a reinforced concrete floor with a minimum of 150mm thickness. The floor must be able to
support the weight of the machine and any workpiece that is to be worked.
3.3 MACHINE MOUNTING OPTIONS
Although it is not required Hafco recommends that you secure
your machine to the floor. Masonry anchors with bolts are the
best way to anchor machinery, because the anchors sit flush
with the floor surface, making it easy to unbolt and move the
machine later, if needed. (Fig. 3.1) Other methods of mounting
is the use of machine mounts which also help with the levelling
of the machine and isolating vibration. (Fig.3.2)
