7. If grouting is not desired, position washers and
locknuts on J-bolts and tighten the locknuts by
even increments – one after the other – until all
are tightened evenly and the machine is fastened
securely to the floor. Refer to Figure 16.
8. If grouting is desired (or required by the
condition of the mounting surface), proceed
to step 11.
9. If the machine is a variable-speed model, the
machine must be grouted. Proceed to step 11.
10. Raise and level the machine 1/2 inch (13 mm) off
the floor on three points, using spacers such as
nut fasteners.
11. Fill the space between the machine base and the
floor with a good quality non-shrinking
machinery grout to ensure a stable installation.
Grout completely under all frame members.
12. Remove the spacers carefully, allowing the
machine to settle into the wet grout.
13. Before grout sets completely, make a drain
opening in the rear of the machine grouting with
a stiff piece of wire. This opening should be
approximately 1/2 inch (13 mm) wide to allow
any surface water build-up under the base of the
machine to drain away. Do not omit this step.
14. Position washers and locknuts on J-bolts and
fingertighten nuts to machine base.
15. After the grout is completely dry, tighten the
locknuts by even increments – one after the
other – until all are tightened evenly and the
machine is fastened securely to the floor.
16. Balance Switch Adjustment: After mounting,
reset balance switch to the correct gap switch
setting. Refer to Table 1.
NOTE: Be sure to recheck the J-bolts 1 week after
installation.
