Default Anchoring Machne tools to floor

I need to anchor a 9"swing 40" long bed (with cabinet base) Rockwell lathe
to a concrete floor. I need to make it as level as possible and then level
the bed. There are level adjusting nuts and screws between the cast iron
bed and the cabinet.

Don't anchor it...like Grant said. I want to hear an accounting of your use
of the Starrett No. 199 Master Precision Level, don't try this on a windy
day or if there are sun spots.
