3.5 Remove Machine from Pallet

 

 Caution

The BR23 weighs approximately 830 pounds. For this procedure, 
we recommend using four people or a forklift. 

TOOLS REQUIRED:

•   Adjustable  wrench

When the machine has been placed at its final location, carefully 
remove the machine from the pallet. 

The machine is

bolted to the pallet

for transport.

1.  From inside the cabinet, remove the bolts that secure the 

machine to the pallet at the interior corners. 

2.  Lift the machine from the pallet by one of 2 methods:

a.  Team lift

b.  Slide machine onto forks of fork lift

3.  Carefully slide the machine into final position.

3.6 Level

TOOLS REQUIRED:

•  Bubble Level
•  Adjustable wrench

Use a bubble level along the length and width of the tabletop surface 
to check for level. Use an adjustable wrench to adjust leveling bolts 
to level the machine.

Be sure to level
the machine.

3.7 Pre-Operation Cleaning

 WaRninG

Use proper cleaning agents and methods described below. Do not 
use gasoline or other petroleum-based solvents. There is a risk of 
explosion and burning if these products are used. Serious personal 
injury may occur.

Machine Surfaces

After the machine is unpacked, remove the rust preventative oil that 
coats the machine. Use a soft cloth and nonflammable degreasing 
agent, such as Simple Green or other orange/citrus-based cleaner. 
Do not use abrasive pads. 

Boring Block Quick Chucks

Special care should be taken when cleaning boring block quick 
chucks. Completely remove all the grease and dust using a 
degreasing agent as mentioned above.
