GB

Insert the other end of the blue hose into the
connector [5-1].

Grease the bottom section of the aluminium
pipe and slide into the Y-piece on the EAA [5-8]
up to the stop.

Tighten the two screws [5-9] on the gripper
clamp to a tightening torque of 6 Nm. The EAA is
now seated securely on the aluminium pipe.

Connect all the hoses in the EAA (see chapter 8
"Connections in the EAA") bef
ore following the wall
mounting instructions described below.

Secure the rear panel to the EAA using the
screws supplied.

Attach the lower retaining rail to the wall first
(see Fig. [8a]). If the wall is made of concrete,
use the enclosed dowels. Note: leave 1 m of
clearance between the panel and the ceiling.

Insert the EAA into the lower retaining rail from
above. The hooks must engage in the EAA hous-
ing.

Attach the upper retaining rail [8b-1] to the
EAA. The hooks must engage in the EAA hous-
ing.

Attach the upper retaining rail to the wall (see
Fig. [8b]). If the wall is made of concrete, use
the enclosed dowels.

Attach the adapter [8b-2] to connect the suction
hose to the aluminium pipe. Alternatively, you
can extend the aluminium pipe by attaching a
plastic pipe (install with antistatic discharge) or
steel pipe for extraction systems, and then at-
tach the adapter afterwards.

 This version does not allow the attachment of

hose holders (see chapter 8.4).

Ceiling installation

The assembly set contains:
– Cable set (mains power and control cable, 2.5 m

long)

– Compressed air line (2.5 m long)
– Aluminium pipe for suspending the EAA
– Hydraulic pipe
– 2 x clamps with rivet
– 2 x cable clips
– Bracket

Procedure

The aluminium pipe is 1.6 m in length on deliv-
ery. The pipe can be shortened at the open end
if necessary. We recommend adapting the
length of the pipe so that the tool holder [1-1]
on the EAA is positioned at forehead height. Al-
ways deburr the aluminium pipe after cutting
to length!

Remove the rear panel of the EAA.

Grease the bottom section of the aluminium
pipe and slide into the Y-piece on the EAA [5-8]
up to the stop.

Tighten the two screws [5-9] on the gripper
clamp to a tightening torque of 6 Nm. The EAA is
now seated securely on the aluminium pipe.

Secure the bracket [9-2] to the ceiling via the
four holes [9-1]. Use fasteners suitable for the
relevant building material (e.g. tie rods, dow-
els).

Connections in the EAA

8.1

Connecting the control cable

Wind the excess cable onto the holder [5-10].

Place the flat seal supplied [10-1] over the ca-
ble connector [5-2] in the EAA.

Insert the contact box [10-2] into the cable con-
nector [5-2] and tighten the screw [10-3].

Secure the control cable under the strain relief
on the EAA [5-3].

8.2

Connecting the mains cable

Wind the excess cable around the ridged section
[5-6].

Place the flat seal supplied [10-6] over the con-
tact box [5-7] in the EAA.

Insert the contact box [10-5] into the cable con-
nector [5-7] and tighten the screw [10-4].

Secure the mains cable under the strain relief
on the EAA [5-4].

Plug the mains cable on the EAA into an earthed
socket with a 16 A fuse.
Exception: If the connected dust extractor is
from another manufacturer, a different configu-
ration may be more appropriate - see chapter
9.1 "Mobile dust extractor".

 On country versions GB, CH and DK, the plug on

the mains cable for the EAA/ASA must be re-
moved and replaced with the accompanying re-
wirable plug. Note: only trained and qualified
electricians are authorised to perform this
work!
