9.0 INSTALLATION
9.1 Spaces required to position the machine
When choosing the place of installation, remember to observe current standards on safety at the workplace.
- The tyre changer needs to be connected to the electrical mains and to the compressed air supply. The machine
should therefore be installed near such energy sources.
- Furthermore, the chosen place of installation must avail of the spaces indicated in drawings 4 - 4/A at least, so that
all of its parts are able to work without any restrictions.
If the tyre changer is the type with an electric motor, it is forbidden to use it in
an explosive environment unless it is a version specifically designed for such
purpose.

9.2_Positioning
Position the tyre changer on flat, smooth and non-slippery ground of suitable load-bearing capacity.
Use lifting equipment of suitable load-bearing capacity that is able to take the weight of the tyre changer (at least 450
Kg.); to lift the machine, use a transport strap with minimum load-bearing capacity of at least 500 kg.
The machine must not necessarily be anchored to the ground, but if you prefer to do so, drill 100 mm deep holes in
the ground by the 4 holes of the machine bed using a 10-mm bit for concrete of suitable length.
Insert suitable metal anchor dowels in the holes drilled and secure firmly.
If the tyre changer is installed outdoors, it must be sheltered by an appropriate structure to protect it against atmos -
pheric events.
The place where the tyre changer is installed must be equipped with an electrical safety system with efficient earthing
and also supplied with appropriate differential 16A circuit breaker.
The place of installation must avail of a pneumatic connection with minimum working pressure of 8 bar.
Once you have finished positioning the machine, slide the safety pin out that prevents the arm from tipping accidentally
(fig. 4b). Put the pin away safely with the accessories supplied so that it can be used again if the machine is moved
somewhere else.
