PRESTO P4 LEVEL LOADER OWNER’S MANUAL

3. During shipping, the platform of the unit is
raised 5-1/2", and this platform is supported
on two pins. This allows a space under the
platform. When you want to move the unit,
put a pallet jack under the platform and lift
the unit. This is the best way of moving the
unit.
CAUTION!
Always raise the platform and insert
the pins before you move the unit. If
you try to move the unit in another
way, the frame may be bent. Be sure
to remove the pins before you
operate the unit. If you do not do
this, the unit may be damaged. Once
the unit has power, raise the platform
just a bit to take the load off of the
pins, then remove the pins.
4. The unit has an 10' power cord. Choose a
location where the cord can reach an outlet
easily, without stretching the cord tightly.
5. Move the unit into position, supporting the
platform of the unit. Place the unit on a firm,
level surface.
CAUTION!
If you place the unit on a surface
which is not firm or level, the
unit may shift as it operates. You
may be hurt, or the unit or load
may be damaged.
6. The unit may be operated without bolting
the frame to the floor. However, the
mounting arrangement is more secure if
you use lag screws. Bolt the unit to the
floor using four lag bolts. These should run
through the lag angles at the corners of
the base frame. Insert and tighten the lag
bolts to secure the unit. Grout under the
base rails to prevent vibration and distortion
of the base frame.
Electrical Connections
DANGER!
The unit uses a power supply of 115
volts AC. This voltage can kill you.
Don’t work with the electrical parts
unless you are a qualified electrician.
