4.5 Installation Steps
WARNING
!
This product is heavy and can cause a pinching or crushing injury during installation or adjust-
ment. Keep clear of moving parts and do not loosen clamps unless directed to do so.
CAUTION
!
If a stand is not mounted in a vertical position, the air filter (on the column support) must be
removed, reoriented, and replumbed. Failure to do so can cause air filter failure, and actuator
failures.
4.5.1 Mounting the Stand (Actuator on Base)
The base must be bolted to your workbench to prevent tipping or undesired movement. Four mounting bolt
holes are provided at the corners of the casting, and will accept your 3/8 inch or M10 cap screws. Use flat
washers against the metal casting to prevent gouging.
CAUTION
!
You must secure the base to your work surface using four bolts, to prevent tipping or unde-
sired movement, in the event the actuator is moved off-center or rotated around the column.
1.
Ensure there are no overhead obstructions and that no pinch or rub points exist. Remember that
the actuator is taller than the column when fully raised, and there are exposed connections.
2.
Mount the base to your workbench using four socket-head cap screws (customer provided, 3/8 inch
or M10). Use flat washers against the metal casting to prevent gouging. The use of nylon lock nuts
with your cap screws is suggested, to reduce loosening due to vibration and movement.
3.
Connect factory air to the air hose on the stand (3/8 NPT male fitting on the hose). A quick-discon-
nect fitting is suggested. Use a lockout device on the air line if required.
4.
Verify the base/start switch control cable is properly connected to the
back of actuator
.
5.
Verify the linear encoder connector is properly connected to the
back of the actuator
.
6.
Verify earth ground is connected with #8 gauge wire to the ground terminal on the rear of the
actuator.
