2800/2801 Lathe Enclosures • 3
This installation procedure
requires 2 persons to
complete. The enclosure is
large and heavy and cannot be unpacked, moved,
or positioned safely by one person. The removal
and reinstallation of a lathe requires 2 persons.
Use care to avoid dropping or damaging the
Enclosure. Have one person hold the collector
while the other removes packing materials or
shipping cartons. During installation, one person
will need to hold the Enclosure in place on the
bench until it is securely fastened to the bench.
Installation – 2800 and 2801
Unpacking the Enclosure
The collector is packed standing on end in the
shipping carton. The required brackets and
hardware are included inside the carton. Unpack
the unit in an area large enough to allow the unit
to be laid out, opened, and spread out.
1. Remove the strapping from the shipping
container and remove the top cover.
2. Remove the tool board and all other items
packed around the Enclosure. Be careful not
to scratch the viewing window.
NOTE: The chip bucket contains the chip tube,
all the necessary fasteners, and some of the
bracketry.
3. Carefully lay the Enclosure on a pad on the floor.
4. Slide the lower carton off of the unit.
5. Stand the Enclosure on end in the middle of
the work area (fig. 1).
NOTE: Place a pad or blanket under the
Enclosure to avoid damaging the outside
surfaces of the unit.

5. Open the Enclosure and remove any parts or
materials packed inside.
IMPORTANT: Use care not to scratch the
window.
Preparing the Bench for Installation
6. If a lathe is attached to the bench, remove it
now.
7. Move the bench to a position where all sides
are easily accessible, and there is sufficient
room to install the collector.
8. If the bench has a tool board or sign attached,
remove them now. Be sure to remove all
mounting for the board and/or sign as well.
9. Clear the bench of all tools and materials.
Assembling and Installing the Enclosure
10. Open the Enclosure and locate the loose end
on both gas struts attached to the top cover of
the Enclosure.
NOTE: One person will need to hold the
Enclosure open at a workable distance while
the other attaches the struts.
11. Snap the socket on the loose end of the strut
onto the ball stud on the mounting bracket on
the lower half of the Enclosure (fig. 2). Repeat
for the second strut.

12. Lift the Enclosure and set it in place on top of
the bench.
13. Locate the lathe mounting holes in the
bottom of the Enclosure that will be used to
mount your lathe. Break the seals open on
these holes only.
14. Adjust the position of the Enclosure on the
bench so that the holes in the bottom of the
enclosure align with the mounting holes in
the top of the bench.
15. Use your lathe mounting bolts and nuts to
attach the Enclosure to the bench. Snug the
bolts at this time, but do not tighten.
16. Locate the Enclosure tool board and the 2
vertical mounting brackets.
17. Locate and remove the bolt and nut at each
end of the hinge on the lower section of the
Enclosure back wall.
