Abstract

See full text

Method of indexing a machine or the like in position on the ground, the machine having a leg with a hollow bushing (104) for adjusting its level, which bushing is screwed to the machine and bears without sliding on a soleplate (102) in contact with the ground, the soleplate including an orifice (106) opening out into the bushing. The method includes the steps of positioning the machine on the ground, of drilling a hole (112) in the ground in line with the orifice (106) in the soleplate (102) using a drilling tool passing along the bushing (104) and through the orifice (106) in the soleplate, and of fitting in the hole a positioning member (107) that co-operates with the orifice (106) in the soleplate in order to index its position on the ground. A machine leg specially adapted to implementing the method is also disclosed.
