WALL MOUNTING
Follow Compressed Gas Association, OSHA and all applicable local codes. Manifolds should not be
placed in locations where the temperature will exceed 102°F (49°C) or fall below 0°F (-18°C).
Manifolds installed in open locations should be protected from weather conditions. During winter,
protect the manifold from ice and snow. In summer, shade the manifold and cylinders from
continuous exposure to direct sunlight. Always leave access to the manifold for cylinder
replacement.
1. Determine and mark the vertical center line for installation of the AutoSwitch console. (Figure 3).
2.
Measure from the floor 72” in height at this center line. With the AutoSwitch mounting
bracket at this height, the manifold header will be
approximately 66” from the floor. Using a
level, mark a horizontal line at this point extending approximately 10 inches to the left and
right of center.
3. Remove the mounting bracket from the rear of the AutoSwitch console by removing the
retaining nuts at the bottom of the mounting bracket (Figure 5). Place the upper edge of the
bracket cross-member on the horizontal line so that it is centered with the vertical line.
Holding the bracket with the slotted extensions away from the wall, mark the location of the
two mounting bolts (Figure 4).
4. Using appropriate hardware based on wall construction, anchor the mounting bracket to the
wall (Figure 4).
5. Place the AutoSwitch system so that the mounting bracket slots align with the shoulder nuts.
With the AutoSwitch box hanging on the shoulder nuts, align the retaining bolts so that they
protrude through the bracket. Replace the mounting nuts that were removed in step 3.
