Assembly
1. Determine what threading machine the stand will be used
with and the required stand width:
• 535 (pre 2001), 300 Compact and 1233 - Narrow Stand
Width of 12" (30.5 cm) (535 machines made prior to 1996
require adapter bracket Cat. No. 58007)
• 535 (2001 and newer), 535A and 1224 - Wide Stand Width
of 15.5" (39.4 cm).
2. Assemble the stand, leaving the fasteners hand tight. Make
sure the "Inside" decals are towards the inside of the stand
(see Figure 2). For the Wide Stand width, use the spacers
and 4" long bolts. For the 150A and 200A, make sure that
the axles are in the forked ends of the stand stop (see
Figure 3).
3. With the stand on a smooth, level surface, securely tighten
all fasteners.
4. Carefully place the threading machine on the stand. For
150A and 200A, place the threading machines with carriage
toward the handles (see Figure 4). Align the mounting holes
in the threading machine base with the appropriate holes in
the stand, as shown in Figure 2, for proper balance. Securely
attach machine to stand.
Inspection/Maintenance
Clean the stand to aid inspection and improve control. Inspect the
stand before each use for proper assembly, wear, damage, mod-
ification or other issues that could affect safe use. If any problems
are found, do not use until corrected.
Lubricate all moving parts/joints as needed with light lubricating oil.
Wipe up excess oil.

Set Up and Operation
1. Always use the stand in clear, level, stable locations.
2. Stand leveling – Loosen nut and turn leveling pad to adjust.
Do not allow pad to come out of the leg. Tighten nut to lock
pad in place.
Transporting
1. Before moving, make sure all equipment and material is
removed from the machine and stand or properly secured to
prevent falling or tipping. Make sure the switch is in the
OFF position and the cord unplugged. The cabinet on the
200A includes slots for routing the foot switch and power cord
into the cabinet for storage.
2. The 150A and 200A wheeled stands allow threading ma -
chines to be moved over smooth, level surfaces. To use,
fully open handles and lift legs slightly off the ground before
rolling.
3. A forklift can be used to the move the threading ma-chine/ -
stands. Place the forks under the stand upper rails (just
below the threading machine) (Figure 4).
