Decades ago where I worked they used pads between the floor and the machine. Do
they still do this or should I rely completely on the built in leveling
jacks/screws.

Thanks

I'm using pads, they look like an oreo cookie only square and made
of rubber/cork/rubber. OK, nothing like an oreo cookie, but...
hard shims to get it level, then one of these on each corner to
quiet things a bit.
