Enclosure Installation
In preparation for enclosure installation, remove the stainless steel cover strip along front of the machine stand (see Figure 1).
Remove the side/rear splash guards from both sides of chip pan (see Figure 1).
Place the Electrical Shield (E.37) around the right corner of the mill (see Figure 2).
Using six F screws, attach the Lower Shield (E38) to the bottom of the Electrical Shield (E.37) as shown in Figure 2.
NOTE: Back of the Electrical Shield tucks into the underside of the cabinet.
Next, mark, drill, and tap; use #21 Drill and 10-32 tap to make three holes on the side of the electrical cabinet where the existing holes are located in the Electrical Shield (E.37) as seen in Figure 2.
Once holes are drilled and tapped, secure Electrical Shield into place using three (F) screws as seen in Figure 2.
NOTE: Use butyl tape (included) to create a seal on the bed; test fit pieces prior to tape application (see Figure 3).
Place Right Rear Panel (E.25) on top of the right rear side of the machine stand (see Figure 3).
NOTE: Slotted holes rest against the machine base. Verify that the slotted holes line up with factory drilled and tapped holes.
Once you have the holes in place, loosely fasten this panel to the machine stand using 1/4-20 x 3/8” screws (C); use #7 Drill and 1/4-20 tap.
Place the Right Side Panel (E.16) on top of the right side of the machine stand (see Figure 4).
NOTE: Slotted holes rest against the machine base. Verify that the slotted holes line up to the factory drilled and tapped holes.
Once you have the holes in place loosely fasten this panel to the machine stand using 1/4-20 x 3/8” screws (C); use #7 Drill and 1/4-20 tap.
Once fastened to the base, loosely fasten the two panels together with (F) screws along the corner where the two panels meet.
Place the Left Rear Panel (E.24) on top of the left rear side of the machine stand (see Figure 5).
NOTE: Slotted holes rest against the machine base. Verify that slotted holes line up to factory drilled and tapped holes.
Once you have the holes in place loosely fasten this panel to the machine stand using 1/4-20 x 3/8” screws(C); #7 Drill and 1/4-20 tap.
Place the Left Side Panel (E.17) on top of the left side of the machine stand (see Figure 6).
NOTE: Slotted holes rest against the machine base. Verify that slotted holes line up with factory drilled and tapped holes.
Once you have the holes in place loosely fasten this panel to the machine stand using 1/4-20 x 3/8” screws (C); #7 Drill and 1/4-20 tap.
Once fastened to the base, loosely fasten the two panels together with (F) screws along the corner where the two panels meet.
Hold the Door Support Rod Cover (E.11) on the outside of the Right Side Panel (E.16) as seen in Figure 7.
Using one (A) screw, fasten the rod cover in place from the inside of the panel.
Connect two Door Support Rods (E.1) together with one threaded Coupling (K) and tighten; repeat process for remaining rods and coupling.
Slide two assembled rods into holes in the Left Side Panel (E.17) and then shift them back into the Right Side Panel’s rod cover for support (see Figure 7).
Place the second rod cover over the rods now protruding on the outside of the Left Side Panel (E.17). Using one (A) screw, fasten the cover in place from the inside of the panel.
NOTE: In this step, installation of the covers and rods aid with lid assembly, but will be removed in a later step.
NOTE: Do not allow side panels to flex outward and allow rods to fall. Temporarily stretching a string taunt between the two side panels alleviates this problem (see Figure 7).
Place the upper Right Lid (E.29) on top of the right rear panel, right side panel and door support rods (see Figure 8). Loosely fasten with (F) screws along the rear and side panels.
Once all screws are in, tighten securely.
Place the upper Left Lid (E.28) on top of the left rear panel, left side panel, and door support rods (see Figure 9). Loosely fasten with (F) screws along the rear and side panels.
Once all screws are in, tighten securely.
Place the Center Lid (E.22) on top of the left/right lids, and door support rods (see Figure 10). Loosely fasten with (F) screws along each side of the lid.
Once all screws are in, tighten securely.
If string was used across the two side panels to prevent them from flexing outward, remove it at this stage (see Figure 7).
Place the Left Front Panel (E.15) onto the left front corner. Loosely fasten with (F) screws along the side and top edges of the front panel (see Figure 11).
Place the Right Front Panel (E.14) onto the right front corner (see Figure 11). Loosely fasten with (F) screws along the side and top edges of the front panel.
Once all screws are in, tighten securely.
Place the Front Cover (E.18) onto the front of the enclosure assembly (see Figure 12). Loosely fasten with (F) screws along the side and top edges of the front panel.
NOTE: The Front Cover provides rigidity between the left and right sides. To ease alignment, lift on different areas of the enclosure.
Once all screws are in, tighten securely.
Place the center Back Cover (E.36) onto the back of the enclosure assembly (see Figure 13). Loosely fasten with (F) screws along the side and top edges of the front panel.
NOTE: The cover provides rigidity between the left and right sides. To ease alignment, lift on different areas of the enclosure.
Once all screws are in, tighten securely.
Place the Rear Trough (E.26) onto the center back see Figure 14). Loosely fasten with (F) screws along side of panel.
NOTE: The trough provides rigidity between the left and right sides. To ease alignment, lift on different areas of the enclosure.

On the inside flange you will find a series of 1/4” holes. These holes are provided so you can drill and tap the chip pan using a .201” diameter drill bit and a 1/4-20 tap.
Once the holes are drilled and tapped, fasten with (C) screws.
Once all screws are in, tighten securely.
Place the Right Door Base (E.20) to where the large flange is inside of the chip pan (see Figure 18). Loosely fasten with (F) screws along the front left and left side panels. On the inside flange there is a series of 1/4” holes. These holes are provided so you can drill and tap the chip pan using a .201” diameter drill bit and a 1/4-20 tap.

Place one (B) nut on each of eight Eye Bolts (E.10) as seen in Figure 27, and screw on as far as they will go onto each Eye Bolt.
Place each Eye Bolt into the hanging holes located on each door (see Figure 27). Once the Eye Bolts are through the door frame, thread another (B) nut onto the bottom side of each Eye Bolt; tighten securely.
Remove the Door Support Rod Covers (E.11) from both of the two side panels (E.16 and E.17) as shown in Figure 28.
Slide the rear Door Support Rod out of the left side panel (E.17) enough to allow you to thread the Eye Bolts of Door 4 onto the rear rod.This door will be located on the left side of the coupling when looking at the machine from the front.
Slide the rear rod through panel E.17 (Left Side Panel) giving you enough space to thread the Eye Bolts of Door 3 onto the rear rod.This door will be located on the right side of the coupling when looking at the machine from the front.
Once doors are on rod, slide rear rod back into the holes of both side panels (E.16 and E.17).

Note: Front door flanges overlap rear doors.
Once doors are on the rod, slide front rod back into the holes of both side panels (E.16 and E.17).
Reattach the removed door support rod cover.
Adjust the height of Door 4 first by adjusting the eye bolt (B) nuts up and down until you have about 1/8” gap between the bottom of the door and the top of the door track (see Figure 29).When adjusting, make sure the door hangs level.
Repeat this procedure for the remaining doors in this order: Door 3, Door 2, Door 1.
Apply a small amount of general-purpose grease on each door support rod to allow doors to slide easier.
