Connecting the Electrical Power Supply
Before connecting electrical power to the DES-42, push the DES-42’s toggle power switch down to
the “OFF” position. Plug the DES-42’s power cord into an appropriate power source, such as a
standard receptacle. The electrical power cord has a molded 15 amp plug.
Connecting Compressed Air
To connect the air supply to the DES-42, perform the following:

Remove the 1/8” male NPT pipe plug from the air line connector located in the back at the
base of the machine. This plug will protect against contaminants entering the air system.

After removing the plug, connect the air supply to the 1/8” female NPT air line connector.
