ASSEMBLY
13.1
Unpacking
Check for shipping damage. If damage has occurred, a claim must be filed with carrier. Check for
completeness. Immediately report missing parts to dealer.
The rotary machine comes assembled as one unit with one die set attached. Additional parts
which need to be fastened to the tool should be located and accounted for before assembling:
IMPORTANT:
Rotary machine and dies are coated with a protectant. To ensure proper fit and
operation, remove coating. Coating is easily removed with mild solvents, such as mineral spirits,
and a soft cloth. Avoid getting cleaning solution on paint or any of the rubber or plastic parts.
Solvents may deteriorate these finishes. Use soap and water on paint, plastic or rubber
components. After cleaning, cover all exposed surfaces with a light coating of oil.
