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.

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.

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.

Place this machine near an existing power 
source. Make sure all power cords are protected 
from traffic, material handling, moisture, 
chemicals, or other hazards. Make sure to leave 
access to a means of disconnecting the power 
source or engaging a lockout/tagout device.

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.
