ANCHORING
It is not essential to anchor the machine to the floor,
however, the floor must be smooth and level. When
anchoring to a concrete floor use the mounting holes that
are provided in the frame. Make sure the machine is solid
and level and supported evenly on all anchor points. Solid
shims may be used if necessary. (See Fig. 8.18)
SECTION 9
AIR SOURCE
This model requires a 14 to 15 CFM air source at
165 PSI maximum pressure. The safe operating pressure
range for this model is between 140 PSI and 165 PSI at
the machine. A 1/4” ID hose (or pipe) for connection to the
machine is satisfactory. Sufficient air pressure assures
good performance.
1. Connect the Air Supply to the Air Drier / Oiler. A proper
fitting (not supplied) to match the supply line of the air
supply connection is required. Use teflon tape (not
supplied) on the NPT thread of the fitting.
This connection is located on the right side of the rear
of the machine. (See Fig. 9.1)
