M1044 52" Foot Shear
SET UP
We recommend that you mount your new foot shear to
the floor for safety and to offer the best performance.
Since floor materials vary, floor mounting hardware is
not included. Generally, you can bolt your foot shear to
the floor using the options described below. Whichever
option you choose it will be necessary to use a precision
level to level your foot shear.
Bolting to Concrete Floors
Lag shield anchors with lag bolts (Figure 3) and anchor
studs (Figure
4) are two popular methods for anchoring
an object to a concrete floor. We suggest you research
the many options and methods for mounting your foot
shear and choose the best that fits your specific applica
-
tion.

NOTICE
Anchor studs are stronger and more permanent alter-
natives to lag shield anchors; however, they will stick
out of the floor, which may cause a tripping hazard if
you decide to move your machine at a later point.
Lifting Shear
A forklift or other mechanical device will be needed to
lift the 1040 lb. shear off of the pallet. Have a helper
nearby to assist. Lift the foot shear as shown in
Figure 2.
