level surface.

system on a floor subject to wet
conditions.
1.3 Getting Started
Step 1:
Unwrap and remove the cabinet from the pallet.
Step 2:
Using the built-in forklift channels at the bottom of the cabinet, move the
system to the installation location.
Step 3:
Insure there is adequate space on both sides of the cabinet for full opening of
part loading/unloading and maintenance access doors. PF3642 cabinets require 37
inches and PF 4652 cabinets require 44 inches on each side of the cabinet.
1.4 Positioning the ProFormer
TM
System
Step 1:
Place the cabinet and stabilize it by adjusting the leveling bolts to compensate
for any unevenness in the floor.
Step 2:
Insure that there is adequate space at both sides of the system for easy access
to components such as the reclaimer on the left hand side and the dust drum and
dust collector on the right hand side. There must be adequate space for work pieces
to be easily loaded and unloaded through the cabinet doors.
Step 3:
Leave a space of 6 to 8 inches behind the cabinet for the compressed air
supply line. There is a 2 ½ inch hole provided on the bottom right side of the system
back wall for air supply line access.
