Although not required, we recommend that you mount
your new bandsaw to the floor. Because this is an optional
step and floor materials may vary, floor mounting hard-
ware is not included. You must use a precison level to
level your machine.
You may also mount your bandsaw to a mobile base with-
wheel locking or wheel retracting capabilities that keep
the mobile base from rolling when the bandsaw is in use.
Bolting.to.Concrete.Floors
Lag shield anchors with lag bolts and anchor studs ( Figure.
12) are two popular methods for anchoring an object to a
concrete floor. We suggest you research the many options
and methods for mounting your machine and choose the
best that fits your specific application. Figure.13 shows
the mounting locations for this machine.
