Instruction Manual COMPACT Arm 

 

Arms and friction joints: The Arm consists of three 
joints. The inner carrying arm is executed in 
45x45 mm aluminium profile, supplied with 
adjustable fittings, where the power of the spring 
may be adjusted. Inside this profile, the middle 
35x35 mm ALU-profile is moved by means of 
journal bearings. The outer joint, a 25x25 mm 
aluminium profile, is moved by means of journal 
bearings in the middle profile.  

 
2.0 Installation 

 
The COMPACT Arm is supplied partly assembled. 
Depending on model, it may consist of one 
carrying arm, one funnel, and one set of hose with 
clamp and rubber band. As standard, the Arm is 
prepared for ceiling mounting, however, in most 
cases it will be mounted on a wall by means of a 
wall bracket (to be ordered separately). 
 

 

Before mounting the Arm, please make sure that 
the optimum working area is selected. Is there 
space enough for the satisfactory utilisation of the 
Arm? What about connection possibilities for 
piping and automatics? The optimum installation 
height is then to be selected in accordance with 
the table below: 
  

Recommended installation height COMPACT Arm: 
1-2 m 

1800 mm 

1.5-3 m 

2000 mm 

3.0 to 7.0 m (incl. extension arm) 

2500 mm 

 

 

Procedure: 
1.  For wall mounting, attach the wall bracket 

firmly to the wall by means of 4 off 10 mm 
bolts (when using the extension arm, please 
fix this bracket first – refer to item 2.1). 

 

      

 

 
 
 

2. 

Then the ceiling bracket is mounted, either in 
the ceiling or in the wall bracket (refer to the 
drawing below). The bracket is fixed via 
attaching the 4 off 8 mm bolts with 4 off 
bevel-edged washers and lock nuts.   

    

         

 

 
 
 
3.  Then the Arm looks like the one shown on 

the picture below. The functionality of the 
Arm is tested and the inner joint is tightened 
up, if necessary.   

 

 

 

4.  The outer joint for the funnel is tested and 

tightened up, if necessary. The funnel must 
be self-retaining in all positions.
