Although not required, we recommend that you
mount your new machine cabinet to the floor.
Because this is an optional step and floor mate-
rials may vary, floor mounting hardware is not
included. Generally, you can either bolt the cabi-
net to the floor or mount it on machine mounts.
Both options are described below. Whichever
option you choose, it is necessary to level the
cabinet with a precision level.
Bolting to Concrete Floors
Lag shield anchors with lag bolts and anchor
studs (
Figure 10) are two popular methods for
anchoring an object to a concrete floor. We sug-
gest you research the many options and methods
for mounting your machine and choose the best
that fits your specific application.

NOTICE
Anchor studs are stronger and more per-
manent alternatives to lag shield anchors;
however, they will stick out of the floor,
which may cause a tripping hazard if you
decide to move your machine.

Using Machine Mounts
Using machine mounts, shown in
Figure 11, gives
the advantage of fast leveling and vibration reduc-
tion. The large size of the foot pads distributes
the weight of the machine to reduce strain on the
floor.
NOTICE
We strongly recommend securing your
machine to the floor if it is hardwired to the
power source. Consult with your electrician
to ensure compliance with local codes.
