Proper unit installation is
necessary for safe use
and efficient operation.

Proper installation also helps protect the unit
from damage and makes service easier. Always
place safety poster and instructions near the
unit.

Select a location using the drawings below. The
area should provide the operator with enough space
to use the equipment in a safe manner. The area
selected should be well lit, easy to clean and should
be away from oil, grease, brake lathe chips, etc.

Workspace Requirements

Air Source
The 5060A/AX all-air models require a 14 to 15 CFM
air source at 150 PSI. The 5060E/EX air/electric
models require a 5 CFM air source at 150 PSI. The
safe operating pressure range for all models is
between 110 PSI and 175 PSI at the machine.

The unit is furnished with a 1/4" pipe thread male
fitting for easy connection. This connection is
located on the right side of the rear of the machine.
A 1/4" ID hose (or pipe) for connection to the
machine is satisfactory. Sufficient air pressure
assures good performance.

Electrical Source
The 5060E/EX models require power from a 15 amp
electrical circuit. Refer to the serial tag located on
the lower part of the machine for specific electrical
requirements for the unit. Have a licensed electrical
technician perform any necessary changes to the
power source before plugging in the unit. The
electrical source must have a solid connection (less
than 1 ohm) between ground and building ground.

Floor Mounting
The machine should be securely bolted to the floor
with suitable anchors using the hole at each corner
of the machine base.
