mechanism under the machine frame.
Refer to Figure 2-1 and adjust the bed height as
follows:
(a) Block up the machine frame to allow
adequate leg adjustment.
(b) Loosen, but do not remove, two M8 x 16
mm socket screws in one leg. Adjust
the leg length for the desired bed height.
Retighten the two screws to secure the
leg. Adjust all four legs equally.
