1. Preparation

Site Inspection: Ensure the installation area is clean, level, and free of debris. Verify that the space is sufficient for the machine and any additional equipment.

Power Supply: Check the power supply to ensure it meets the machine's requirements (voltage, current, and frequency). Ensure proper grounding to prevent electrical issues.

Tools and Materials: Gather necessary tools and materials, including bolts, wrenches, and a level.

2. Machine Placement

Positioning: Carefully place the glass edging equipment on a sturdy, level surface. Use a level to ensure the machine is perfectly horizontal to avoid vibrations during operation.

Securing: If the machine is to be mounted on a pedestal, ensure it is securely bolted down. Use anti-vibration pads if necessary to reduce noise and improve stability.

3. Electrical Connection

Power Connection: Connect the machine to the power supply according to the glass edging machine suppliers' specifications. Ensure all connections are tight and secure.

Grounding: Properly ground the machine to prevent electrical hazards. Follow the grounding instructions provided in the manual.

Circuit Protection: Install appropriate circuit breakers and surge protectors to protect the machine from electrical surges and overloads.

4. Initial Setup

Control Panel: Familiarize yourself with the control panel. Ensure all settings are in their default positions before starting.

Safety Features: Install and test all safety features, including emergency stop buttons and safety guards. Ensure they are functioning correctly.

Test Run: Perform a test run without glass to check for any unusual noises or vibrations. Adjust the glass edging machine as necessary to ensure smooth operation.

5. Final Adjustments

Calibration: Calibrate the machine according to the manual. This includes setting the grinding and polishing heads to the correct positions.

Software Setup: If the machine includes software, install and configure it according to the glass edging machine manufacturers' instructions.

Test with Glass: Perform a few test runs with scrap glass to fine-tune the settings and ensure the machine is producing the desired edge finish.

6. Maintenance and Safety

Regular Maintenance: Follow the maintenance schedule provided in the manual. This includes cleaning, lubricating, and inspecting the machine regularly.

Safety Training: Ensure all operators are trained in the safe operation of the machine. Provide them with the necessary safety gear, such as gloves and eye protection.

Documentation: Keep all installation and maintenance records in a safe place for future reference.
