Setup Instructions
CAUTION
Proper unit installation is necessary for safe
use and efficient operation. Proper installa-
tion also helps protect the unit from dam-
age and makes service easier. Always place
safety poster and instructions near the unit.
Location
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. Avoid areas
where bystanders and customers may be present.
Workspace Requirements
Air Source
The unit requires a 5 CFM air source at 150 PSI. The
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 fit-
ting 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 ensures good performance.
Floor Mounting
As Hennessy can not be certain of the environment
and conditions of the locations where the equipment
will be installed, it is recommended that the safety
manager review the shop floor conditions and local
regulatory practices to determine if bolting of the equip-
ment to the shop floor is necessary or advisable.
