Once foot movements have been established, the results are interpreted and
translated into shim thicknesses to be placed under the feet. How straightforward
this is, depends on the type of soft foot present.
5.17 Checking and correcting soft foot conditions
The three main types are parallel soft foot, angular soft foot, and induced soft foot.
There are instances where the soft foot is a combination of two or more types.
Checking for soft foot is part of machine and job preparation.
The machine to be checked is assumed to have four feet which are bolted down
in an approximately square formation. If the machine has six feet, it is advisable
to leave the middle feet loose and treat the machine as a four-footed machine.
Soft foot is measured only on machine designated as movable.
