mounting options
Before you place your machine on the cabinet, we
recommend you consider the following options for
leveling and mounting it. deciding on a method for
mounting and leveling before placing the machine
on the cabinet will make the process much safer
and easier.
option 1: use the included leveling bolts. the
advantage of this method is that no addi-
tional hardware is required. the drawback is
that the leveling bolts have a small footprint
and may cause damage on surfaces other
than concrete floors. if you plan to place the
machine on a non-concrete floor, consider
option 2.
option 2: use aftermarket machine mounts.
these are readily available and their broad
footprint disperses the load more evenly.
grizzly offers four sizes:
g7158—1-1/2" dia., 800 lb capacity
g7159—3" dia., 1600 lb capacity
g7160—4-3/4" dia., 8000 lb capacity
g7161—6-1/4" dia., 25,000 lb capacity
option 3: Mount the machine to the floor. this
ensures that the machine will not move dur-
ing use, maximizing safety. Because this is
an optional step and floor materials may vary,
this type of hardware is not included with the
machine.
read through the following two pages to better
understand the options and determine the one
that best suits your needs.
using the included leveling bolt
1. thread one M12-1.75 x 40 hex bolt with one
M12-1.75 hex nut into the bolt mounting hole
on each corner of the base, as shown in
figure 15.
2. place the machine on the cabinet, using the
methods described in moving & placing
machine on page 22. Mount the machine
to the base with the four M10-1.5 x 140 hex
bolts.
3. place a precision level on the table, then
turn the leveling bolts as needed to level the
machine. once the machine is level, tighten
the hex nut against the foot base to prevent
the leveling bolt from turning.
