Setting Up the PCS 60
WARNING Improper installation of hoses and adapters to the PCS 60 can cause damage
to the machine or the applicators.
Do not use one wrench when tightening or replacing fittings on the PCS 60 machine or the
applicators.
Always use two wrenches to install and remove hoses and accessories on the PCS 60 or the
applicators.
CAUTION When attaching the blast hose, make sure to put a 1” wrench on the SST base
connection of the rotary union. DO NOT rely on the polymer housing to keep
it from rotating. Any connections that are frozen should be thawed by running
air only through the applicator if machine has been in operation.
Follow the instructions below to set up the PCS 60:
1. Set the parking brake by pressing down (lift to release).
2. Attach the blast hose and control cable to the PCS 60.
Figure 6: Hose Configuration
Each machine is shipped with one 20’ “applicator” hose. If additional hose is needed, a “machine”
hose needs to be added. Any additional length requires “extension” hoses.
They may also be shipped with a 12’ applicator hose if the PCS 60 is ordered with Precision Kit only.
The reason for the different names is due to the quick disconnects (QDCs). Specific QDCs are
required to mate hoses of different sizes.
The “applicator” hose includes a QDC to connect directly to a machine by default, but will not
connect to a “machine” hose. The “machine” hose includes the QDC required to connect to an
applicator hose, so a swap is necessary.
3. Attach an applicator to the blast hose and control cable using the two supplied wrenches.
