7.1 Place of installation

In order to ensure good functioning of the notching ma-
chine and a long service life, the installation site should 
meet the following criteria.

- The notching machine may only be installed and 

operated in dry, frost-free, well-ventilated rooms. 

- Avoid places near machines that cause chips or 

dust. 

- The place of installation must be vibration-free, i.e. 

away from presses, planing machines, etc. 

- The ground must be suitable for the work. Pay atten-

tion to the bearing capacity and evenness of the 
ground. 

- If necessary, protruding parts, such as support ta-

bles, etc., must be secured by on-site measures so 
that persons are not endangered.

- Provide sufficient space for set-up and operating 

personnel and material transport. 

- Also consider accessibility for adjustment and 

maintenance work. 

- Provide adequate lighting (minimum value: 300 lux).
- The humidity should be in the range of 10% to 90% 

and the measured room temperature should be bet-
ween max. 0°C - 50°C.

Setting up the machine:

Step 1: Make sure that the space around the machine is 

sufficient for the application (Fig. 8). There must 
be sufficient space for the operator and material 
transport.

Step 2: Check each part of the machine for proper con-

dition before starting to set it up.

Step 3: Place the control foot pedal in the best position 

for the application in front of the work area.

Step 4: Remove the hexagonal head cap screws 85 

(Fig.9).

Step 5: Use a crane to lift the machine from the pallet 

and move it to the working position (Fig.10).

ATTENTION!

Check the load-bearing capacity of the ground 
before you install the machine. The installation place 
must be capatable of bearing the weight of the 
machine and the workpieces.

ATTENTION!

The machine is delivered unfilled. Before commis-
sioning, hydraulic oil must be filled into the tank.
Only use suitable hydraulic oil for refilling.
