trip hazards or liquids present.
Grinder must be anchored on a level hard surface! Machine must be removed from the pallet.
Anchoring of the machine must be done to prevent movement of the unit during operation. The base is
supplied with four mounting holes on the four corners. (Figure 1) Anchoring must be done in a suitable
fashion.
