Installation Requirements
Follow these installation requirements when assembling the GMR20:
Set up the GMR20 on a solid, flat surface. A smooth, flat surface under the
machine helps keep it level. A level machine has fewer malfunctions.
Provide ample space around the machine. Open space around the machine allows
for easier access.
Insert all bolts in the same direction. For aesthetic purposes, insert all
bolts in the same direction unless specified (in text or illustrations) to do
otherwise.
Leave room for adjustments. Tighten fasteners such as bolts, nuts, and screws
so the unit is stable, but leave room for adjustments. Do not fully tighten
fasteners until instructed in the assembly steps to do so.
Fill out and mail the warranty card.
Assembly Tips
Read all “Notes” on each page before beginning each step.
While you may be able to assemble the GMR20 using the illustrations only,
important safety notes and other tips are included in the text.
Some pieces may have extra holes that you will not use.
Use only those holes indicated in the instructions and illustrations.
NOTE: With so many assembled parts, proper alignment and adjustment is
critical. While tightening the nuts and bolts, be sure to leave room for
adjustments.
NOTE: The bottles that are marked “Poison” is your touch up paint. Keep
away from children.
CAUTION: Obtain assistance! If you feel like you can’t assemble the GMR20
by yourself then do not attempt to do so as this could result in injury.
Review the installation requirements before proceeding with the following
steps.
