OPERATION MANUAL
2.2 PRESS ASSEMBLY
The Metalmaster press may be supplied in pack
configuration for ease of transport. The pack comes
mounted on a metal skid for stability and should not
be removed until the table has been attached to the
main frame. When lifting, a crane suitable to han-
dle the load should be used. The use of certified web
slings must be used and care should be taken at all
times.
Before releasing the strapping, sling the table (Fig. 1)
Once the slings are safely attached, lift the table off
the pack and lay it down on wooded beams to prevent
damage.

Using a forklift, lift the table (Fig. 2) and slide it
between the main frame making sure that bottom
web of the table frame is mounted under the roll-
ers. (Fig. 3) Care should be taken not to damage
the rollers during the assembly.
Once the table has been mounted to the main
frame the legs can now be assembled. To do this
lift the press as (Fig. 4) and attach the legs and
remove the main frame from the metal skid.
WARNING !
The table and main frame should
be clamped to ensure that it does not move
during this operation.
