1. Unroll machine anchoring template [1].
2. Use centerlines and provided reference sheet dimensions, measure distances to nearest allowable obstructions.
3. Once position is established, taped the corners [2] of the anchoring template to the foundation.  Keep the template as flat as possible.
4. Spray paint the foundation in the cutout areas of the template [3].
5. Let the paint dry for 5-10 minutes.
6. Remove the anchoring template [1].

Note: Use the link below for VS- series , No machine anchor template is available. Print at 1:1 ratio

Use the provided SDS-Plus Style drill for the following steps:

• Drill specified number of holes at depth 2.00 - 2.25" each.  
  • Drill bit should be perpendicular to foundation.
• Clean the holes with pipe cleaner.
• Use compressed air and a vacuum to clear holes.
• Reapeat for the number of leveling pads.
• Cover the holes with tape to protect from unwanted debris while the other holes are drilled.
• Using the hammer [2] set the drop-in anchor [1] flush with the concrete [3].
  
  Note:  Do not use the set tool to drive the anchor.  

• Use the provided setting tool [1] and hammer [2], to seat the anchor in the concrete.
  
• Make sure that the anchors are seated flush [3], use the setting tool as a gauge.
  Note:  Be careful not to overdrive the anchor [4] to far inside the hole.

1. Place the thrust plate flush [1] with the foundation.
2. Thread stud [2] into the anchor location using two lock nuts.
3. Place 1/2-13 hex nut on the 1/2-13 hex bolt [3] on top of the thrust plate.
4. Place the anchoring strap [4].
5. Place the washer [5] on the threaded rod.
6. Thread the 1/2-13 hex nut [6] into the threaded rod.
7. Be sure the anchoring strap [7] remains parallel to the clamped casting surface.
8. Torque 1/2-13 hex nut to 25ft-lbs (34 nm).

Make sure that the anchor strap [1] is level on the hex nut [2] and the machine base [3].

NOTE: Make sure the threaded stud [4] is perpendicular to the floor and not bent. 

Make sure the threaded stud welded to the base is not bent as shown in the image [1].

If this occurs make sure that the anchor holes are drilled straight and redrill them if necessary. 

NOTE: The UMC-1250/SS does not have the anchoring fingers on the base foot. The indicated holes on the anchoring layout will have them anchoring down the base flange as shown in the image. Image [1] is the front of the machine, while image [2] is the back of the machine.
