CONTACT INFORMATION
Congratulations on selecting Norfield Industries for your woodworking machinery solutions. A factory
Service Representative will be contacting you to review the site pre-installation requirements, and to
discuss the shipping schedule of your machine. Thereafter, our factory trained Field Engineer will
contact you to schedule the machine setup and training.
If you have questions regarding site preparations, or anticipate delays that will effect the installation,
please call the Norfield Service Department at 800-824-6242.
SITE PREPARATION BEFORE MACHINE ARRIVES
1. Verify Electrical, Air, and Space Requirements
Use the Table in the attached drawing (6815-001) to verify the Electrical and Air requirements.
A.) For Electrical Requirements
1. For the 3-Phase power, E1, select your machine 3-Phase voltage configuration, either 208V/230V or
460V, and use the values in that row to verify the requirements.
2. The Single-Phase requirement is the same for both configurations.
3. If new electrical power to the machine will be needed, only a qualified electrician should complete
the installation. A 3-Phase circuit and a separate 230 volt Single-Phase circuit, including neutral
and earth ground is required.
Do Not pull the 230 Single-Phase circuit from the 3-Phase circuit at the machine !
B.) For Air Requirements
1. If new air lines will be installed the pipe size can be no smaller than 3/8”. Pipe sizes will vary
depending on the length of the run. Check the table for the correct size.
2. Use the dimensions in the attached drawing (6815-001) to verify the space requirements for the
machine.
C.) For Space Requirements
1. Overall Length, 17ft. 1-1/2 inches, Width, including elevator motor, 48”, Height, 109” .
2. Clearance for service access, material flow (In & Out) should be considered when determining your
space requirements.
a. For Service Access, behind the machine, three (3ft) feet minimum, preferably four (4ft) feet.
b. For Material Flow (In & Out) minimum eight (8ft) feet.
3. If a standalone vacuum system will be used (not in-house system), use 3ft. x 5ft. dimensions for
determining space requirements.

SITE PREPARATION AFTER MACHINE ARRIVES
1. Uncrating and Inspection
Before uncrating the machinery, it is important to do a cursory inspection for freight damage, and
obvious missing components. If damage is found or suspected, call the freight company immediately,
and then notify Norfield.
If the cursory inspection was OK, uncrate the machine and check it again for damage and missing
components that may have been overlooked, due to the plastic wrap.
To notify Norfield, call toll free at 1-800-824-6242
2. Position the Machine
If the machine will be moved with a fork lift, it should be capable of lifting at least 3500 lbs., the weight
of the machine. The forks can be placed underneath the machine, but its balance must be carefully
checked. A lifting bracket is mounted on top of the frame. The machine can be picked up from above
using a chain passed through the lifting bracket and secured to the lift forks. Do Not attempt to move the
machine by using any part of the Top Section above the frame as a lifting point.
Position the machine in it’s permanent position, make sure there is at least three feet (3ft) of service
access space on all sides.
It is recommended that the lifting bracket be removed after positioning the machine.
3. Connect Machine Electrical
3.1 Only a qualified electrician should make the
machine connections. Lockout and Tagout
the 3-Phase and Single-Phase AC power
source before attempting to connect any
wires to the machine.
3.2 Open the machine main electrical disconnect
panel, (located by E1/E2 on the layout
drawing).
3.3 Connect the 3-Phase and Single- Phase
power sources as shown in figure 1.
Connect the 3-Phase wires, L1, L2, and L3
at “A”, Connect the Single-Phase wires, L1,
L2, and Neutral, at “B”. Connect the Earth
Ground at “C”.
3.4 Close the electrical panel and lockout /
Tagout the main disconnect switch.
To prevent accidental application of
power to the machine, Do Not Remove the
Lockout/Tagouts!

4. Connect The Air Source To The Machine
4.1 Before attempting to connect the air supply line to
the machine, make sure that the main air supply
on the FRL (red knob) is shut off and the Lockout
and Tagout devices are installed.
4.2 Connect the main air source as shown in the
Figure 2.
Do Not Remove the Lockout/Tagout to ensure
the machine air cannot be energized!
5. Connect The Vacuum Source (Optional)
5.1 A vacuum source of 1900 CFM can be connected to either end of the machine V1, V2 . The vacuum
duct size shall be five (5”) inches.
6. Setup and Testing Materials
The following material should be available for the field engineer during the installation setup and testing.
Also, it is helpful to have material available for one or two small jobs after the setup and training is
complete.
Material List:
Quantity Type Dimension
4 Interior Door 1-3/8” x 6’-8” x 2’-6” or 2’-8”
2 Exterior Door 1-3/4” x 6’-8” x 2’-8” or 3’-0”
