Although not required, we strongly recommend
that you mount your new machine to the floor to
prevent tipping. Because this is an optional step

popular methods for anchoring an object to a con-
crete floor. We suggest you research the many
options and methods for mounting your machine
and choose the best that fits your specific applica-

NOTICE
Anchor studs are stronger and more perma-
nent alternatives to lag bolts; however, they
will stick out of the floor, which may cause
a tripping hazard if you decide to move your
machine.
NOTICE
We strongly recommend securing your
machine to the floor if it is hardwired to the
power source. Consult with your electrician
to ensure compliance with local codes.
