How do I attach the ramp to my Mach 1 low profile pallet wrapper?
- The "Ramp" typically ships on top of the wrapper turntable.
- A "Ramp mounting bracket" is also supplied.
- There are four (4) threaded holes in the pedestal base of the turntable support column. There are two (2) "Set screws" shipped in 2 of these 4 holes. Remove these "Set screws".
- Attach the "Ramp mounting bracket" to the pedestal base of turntable first (using the "Set screws"), in the position appropriate for your needs. (The holes are drilled to accommodate the standard three (3) ramp positions used by most applications.)
- Then, position the "Ramp" close to the turntable, leaving approximately a 1/4" to 3/8" gap between the turntable plate and the ramp. (Use a screwdriver or crowbar to maneuver the ramp.) Attach the "Ramp" to the "Ramp mounting bracket" with bolts, fixing it in place, and maintaining a proper gap.
- Test the turntable rotation and ensure there is no binding. Adjust if necessary.
The loading ramp must be attached to the wrapper’s base or anchored into the floor in such a manner that it will not be in contact with the rotating turntable. A 3/8” gap between the two is advisable. Furthermore, the ramp must be leveled at least 1/8” below the turntable’s surface to prevent rotating pallets from rubbing on it.
Recommended Tools: Socket wrench; 9/16" Socket (long); Extension; Large flat head screw driver (or small crowbar)
