Fixing to Workbench (Fig. A)
• The machine frame between the feet on each side is

9
which allow fixing on a
workbench. Use the holesdiagonally.
• To improve the handling, fix the machine onto a piece of
plywood a minimum of 15 mmthick.
When in use, the plywood sheet can be clamped to the
workbench. This allows easier transportation of the machine, by
releasing theclamps.
