Figure 4.10: Typical Machinery Anchor Installation
1. Remove the wood skid by unscrewing the carriage bolts holding it to the bottom frame of
the machine.
2. Carefully place the machine over the anchor bolts. Raise and level it 1/2 inch above the floor
on four points, using spacers that can be removed.
3. Fill the spaces between the machine base and floor with machinery grout. Grout completely
under all frame members. Remove front panel and rear panel to gain access to all frame
members. Force grout under the machine base until all voids are filled.
4. Remove the spacers carefully, allowing the machine to settle into the wet grout.
5. Attached the mounting bolt washers and lock nuts to the anchor bolts after the grout has
hardened. Tighten the lock nuts by even increments-one after the other-until all are tightened
evenly and the machine is fastened securely to the floor. The nuts should be tightened in a
diagonal fashion, which will help ensure equal tension at all anchor points.
6. Remove the transportation brackets which secure the moving components of the machine
during shipping. Refer to figure 4.11 on page 29 for typical locations.
4.5 Transportation Brackets
Remove both front and rear transportation brackets, as well as the bracket located on the lower
inside right of the machine. Failure to remove shipping brackets before operation of the SP series
will void your warranty. Inspect the machine carefully to ensure that all transportation brackets
are removed. All transportation brackets are painted red for easy identification.
