CHECKING AND ADJUSTING THE WORKTOP FOR
FLATNESS (continued).
Adjust the surface flatness by adding packing
pieces, made from 1.5mm-3mm (1/16” – 1/8”)
thick rigid material such as PVC Foamboard, under
the mounting plates during installation (see 3.3).
THE BASE LOCATING BRACKETS & MOUNTING
PLATES
The base locating brackets and mounting plates
are designed to hold the base of the cutter firmly
in place and provide a means to adjust the base
for both flatness and alignment of the cutting
groove. Before fitting the brackets, check that the
tips of the grub screws are aligned with the inside
of the bracket. These are factory set but may
have moved in transit. Check that the jacking
screws are present and are finger tight.
IF YOU ARE FITTING THE ATHENA 3 TO THE ATLAS
FOR ATHENA TABLE PLEASE PROCEED TO 7.1
POSITIONING THE BASE LOCATING BRACKETS &
MOUNTING PLATES
Position a bracket & plate 10 cms (4”) inboard
from either end of the line drawn as described in
3.1, ensuring that the centre of the bracket is
aligned with the pencil line and fix to the worktop
using the screws provided. Position the remaining
brackets accurately along the line with equal
spacing (B) between each bracket. Check that all
brackets are aligned correctly and if not, remove
any incorrectly positioned brackets slightly to one
side of the original position to create new screw
holes.
