Moving my Sp20

Posted December 3, 2009 by nstockallen   908 views    1 Comment    Print Print   

I need to move my SP20 to a different location in my building…(rented out my current space and moving to cheaper area) I have to remove the handle to get it out and in the doors. IS there anything special I need to be aware of in this situation–I am mechanically incapable but surrounded by people (non-printers) who assure me this is a no-brainer, “take off the handle, put it back on”. Just checking before I allow them to touch the press.

    First loosen the set screw on the handle, then tap out the taper pin from the narrow end with a punch and mallet.

    It may take a bit of WD40 to nudge loose..

    Reinsert the pin in the handle during the move so it doesn’t get lost.

    Also lift the press at the feet to prevent bents the lower sheet metal shelf.
