Finding a Location
Keep the following in mind when deciding on a location:
•
Power source
. The Tire Changer needs to be near an appropriate 220 VAC power source.
•
Floor
. The Tire Changer is best used on a flat, Concrete floor.
•
Accessibility
. You need some space to move the Wheels whose Tires you are going to change
to and from the Tire Changer.
•
Danger
. When a Tire is on the Tire Changer, especially during Inflation, you need to keep
everyone far away from it; only the Tire Changer Operator should be near it. Except for the Tire
Changer Operator, all other people must be kept at least 30 feet away from the Tire Changer.
Do not set up the Tire Changer in a well-travelled area
.
•
No water
. The Tire Changer has electronic components. If the Tire Changer gets wet while
turned on, those electronic components will most likely short circuit and have to be replaced.
⚠
WARNING
Do not use the Tire Changer if it is sitting in water. You will almost certainly short
circuit the electronic components in the Tire Changer and you could electrocute
yourself.
Unpacking
Use caution when taking the Tire Changer out of its shipping container. You do not want to damage
the unit, misplace any of the components that come with it, or hurt anyone.
⚠
CAUTION
Make sure to use an appropriate lifting device, such as a forklift or pallet jack, to
move the Tire Changer while it is on its pallet. Make sure only personnel who are
experienced with material handling procedures are allowed to move the Tire
Changer. The Tire Changer is heavy and the weight is not evenly distributed;
dropping or knocking over the unit may cause equipment damage or personal
injury.
We recommend you unpack the Tire Changer in the area where you are going to set it up.
To unpack the Tire Changer
:
1.
Where the Cover meets the Pallet, push the metal tabs all the way down, on all four sides.
2.
Lift the Cover off.
You may have to apply some force to get all of the metal tabs free; they sometimes stick a little.
3.
Remove the plastic wrap around the Tire Changer and other components.
4.
Remove the Accessory Box.
5.
Remove the shipping bolts that are holding the Tire Changer to the Pallet.
6.
Move the Tire Changer off the Pallet, then move it to the desired location.
⚠
CAUTION
Ranger recommends having at least two people move the Tire Changer; it is heavy
and the weight is not evenly distributed. If it is dropped or falls, it could cause
injuries and the Tire Changer could be damaged.
