4.1 Positioning of the unit
DANGER
Before installing the unit, make sure that the
structure of the building and/or the supporting
surface can withstand the weight of the
appliance. The weights of the units are listed in
Chapter 8 of this manual.
These units have been designed for indoor installation on a solid
surface. Standard accessories include antivibrating rubber supports,
that must be positioned under the base.
When the unit is to be installed on the ground, it is necessary to
provide a concrete base, to ensure a uniform distribution of the
weights.
As a general rule, no special sub-bases are required. However, if the
unit is to be installed on the top of inhabited rooms, it is advisable
to rest it on spring shock absorbers (optional), that will minimise the
transmission of any vibration to the structures.
To choose the place of installation of the unit, bear in mind that:
n the unit must not be installed in areas subject to flooding, under
gutters etc.
n the place of installation must be have all the necessary spaces
for air circulation and maintenance operations (see Chapter 8).
4.2 Spring Isolator Installation

Lift the appliance and insert shock absorbers as follows:
1) Procede to assemble the jack components. Fit the jack in the
threaded housing on the upper plate of the antivibration mount.
2) Fit the jack mounted on the antivibration mount in the hole in the
machine base.
