1. Raise the crosshead.
2. Put two foot mounts (items 7 and 10) on the frame in the provided machined indents.
3. Put a M6 x 1.00 mm x 12mm buttonhead cap screw (item 4) for the top bracket on the baseplate.
Once the side panel is in place and before you tighten down the bottom screws, it makes installation easier
to secure the top side panel bracket to the frame to help hold the side panel in position while you tighten
the bottom screws to secure the side pane to the frame base. This step puts the top bracket screw where
you can reach it when the time comes.
4. Put M5 C'Bore butt fasteners (item 9) in the two bottom slots in the side panel and insert the DIN912 M5
x 0.80 mm x 30 mm SST sockethead cap screws (item 8).
5. Position the side panel (item 6) on the frame such that the bottom screws fit through the foot mounts and
into the threaded holes.
6. Take the screw from step 3 and secure the top bracket (item 3) to the frame. Hand-tighten.
7. Hand-tighten the screws securing the side panel to the frame base.
8. Repeat steps 2 through 7 for the other side panel.
9. Using the supplied Allen wrench, snug down all fasteners. Do not over-tighten.
Fasteners should be tightened enough to hold the panels firmly in place but not so tight the panels cannot
be slightly positioned for alignment after the back panel (item 1) and front door (item 12) are installed.
10. Pre-install the door. There are (2) hinges. Mount both hinges to the door and torque to 8.8 [12 N] and then
place the door into position.
11. Place the front door into position with the handle to the right side, and secure the top hinge to the side
panel using one M6 x 1.00 mm x 12 mm buttonhead cap screw (item 5).
12. Close and latch the door to hold it in place.
13. Install the remaining three M6 x 25 mm x 12 mm flathead screws. Tighten enough to hold the door firmly
in place but not so tight the door cannot be slightly positioned for alignment after the back panel is installed.
