CAUTION – POSSIBLE EQUIPMENT DAMAGE:
Failure to keep all personnel and equipment clear of the table before actuating any inertia-driven or power-driven
movement could result in table damage.
When moving the table to or from point of use, roll it carefully at moderate speed and only over smooth floors.
Maximum floor clearance is 1/4" (6.4 mm). Avoid door and elevator jambs, and obstructions greater than 1/4" (6.4
mm). If necessary, lift table over obstructions, onto trucks, etc. Lift table evenly and only by the table base. DO
