To ensure an easy and precise operation of the lathe, it is absolutely necessary to place the lathe on a sturdy
foundation and to level it. Leave enough space around the machine. It is possible to attach the lathe to the
foundation.
Without anchoring:
Place the lathe on the foundation. Adjust the 6 mounting holes in the stand to divide the weight of the machine
evenly. Place a leveling instrument on the bed and adjust the machine.
With anchoring:
Place the mounting holes in the stand of the lathe over the 6 bolts (ø 12 mm), which are placed in the
foundation. Level the machine and tighten the bolts. Check again if the machine is level. Adjust, if necessary.
It is recommended to check every three months if the machine is till level, both in longitudinal as cross
direction. If the machine is not attached to a foundation, you should check more often if it is still level.
