Children or untrained

people may be seriously

injured by this machine.

Install machine in an

access restricted location.

Space Allocation

Consider the largest size of workpiece that will

be processed through this machine and provide

enough space around the machine for adequate

operator material handling or the installation

of auxiliary equipment. With permanent

installations, leave enough space around

the machine to open or remove doors/covers

as required by the maintenance and service

described in this manual.

Weight Load

Refer to the Machine Specifications for the

weight of your machine. Make sure that the

surface upon which the machine is placed will

bear the weight of the machine, additional

equipment that may be installed on the machine,

and the heaviest workpiece that will be used.

Additionally, consider the weight of the operator

and any dynamic loading that may occur when

operating the machine.

Physical Environment

The physical environment where your machine

is operated is important for safe operation and

longevity of parts. For best results, operate this

machine in a dry environment that is free from

excessive moisture, hazardous or flammable

chemicals, airborne abrasives, or extreme

conditions. Extreme conditions for this type

of machinery are generally those where the

ambient temperature is outside the range of 41°–

104°F; the relative humidity is outside the range

of 20–95% (non-condensing); or the environment

is subject to vibration, shocks, or bumps.

Electrical Installation

Place this machine near an existing power source

that meets the minimum circuit requirements.

Make sure all power cords are protected from

traffic, material handling, moisture, chemicals,

or other hazards. Leave access to disconnect the

power source or engage a lockout/tagout device.

Lighting

Lighting around the machine must be adequate

enough that operations can be performed

safely. Shadows, glare, or strobe effects that

may distract or impede the operator must be

eliminated.
