10.0_INSTALLATION
10.1_Space required to position the machine
When choosing the place of installation, remember to observe current standards on safety at the workplace.
- The tire changer needs to be connected to the electrical mains and to the compressed air supply. The machine should
therefore be installed near such sources.
- Furthermore, the chosen place of installation must have the spaces indicated in drawings 4 - 4/A at least, so that all
of its parts are able to work without any restrictions.
It is forbidden to use the tire changer in an explosive environment unless it is a version
specifi cally designed for such purpose.

10.2_Positioning
Position the tire changer on fl at, smooth and non-slippery ground of suitable load-bearing capacity.
It is recommended to secure the tire changer to the garage fl oor using a bolt on each corner.
Use lifting equipment of suitable load-bearing capacity that is able to take the weight of the tire changer (at least 992
lbs -450 Kg.); to lift the machine, use a transport strap with minimum load-bearing capacity of at least 1102 lbs (500 kg).
The machine must not necessarily be anchored to the ground, but if you prefer to do so, drill 4” (100 mm) deep holes
in the ground by the 4 holes of the machine bed using a 0,40” (10 mm) bit for concrete of suitable length.
Insert suitable metal anchor dowels in the holes drilled and secure fi rmly.
The place where the tire changer is installed must be equipped with an electrical safety system with effi cient grounding
and also supplied with appropriate differential 20A circuit breaker.
The place of installation must have a pneumatic connection with minimum working pressure of 116 PSI (8 bar).
Once you have fi nished positioning the machine, slide the safety pin out that prevents the arm from tipping accidentally
(fi g. 4b). Put the pin away safely with the accessories supplied so that it can be used again if the machine is moved
somewhere else.
