Workbench Load
Your Model M1043 weighs nearly 335 lbs and has a foot-
print of 52" x 12". BEFORE moving the brake onto a work-
bench, inspect the workbench carefully to determine
that it will be sufficient to carry the load of the brake,
the workpiece material, and any downward pressure from
operation. If you have doubts about the strength of the
workbench, reinforce it.
Working Clearances
Consider existing and anticipated needs, size of mate-
rial to be processed, and space for auxiliary stands, work
tables or other machinery when establishing a location
for your Model M1043 Pan and Box Brake.
Lighting
Lighting should be bright enough to eliminate shadow and
prevent eye strain.
