Pneumatic lift is designed for setting and removing wheels with weight up to 200 kg on
spindle shaft.
Pneumatic lift consists of guides that provide horizontal plane displacement of forklift grab,
body and pneumatic cylinder, which is controlled by pneumatic switch, located on control lever.
Air preparation system (see Figure 4.5) is located on machine body and consists of:
- moisture eliminator with settling;
- air-oil lubricator;
- pressure regulator for limitation of compressed air pressure in pneumatic system;
- pressure gauge for compressed-air control in pneumatic system.
4.2 Preparation of the machine for operation
4.2.1 Unpack the machine. During the unpacking be careful not to damage the machine by
unpacking tools.
After unpacking make visual check of the machine in order to find damages, which may
occur during transportation, read carefully technical documentation enclosed, check the
availability of accessories in accordance with the delivery set.
After transportation or storage of the machine at an air temperature lower than +5
С
it’s necessary to
keep the machine at a temperature of (25
10)
С
during minimum 4 hours before unpacking.
4.2.2 Place the machine on an even rigid foundation, admissible deviation of the
foundation from the horizontal line is 0.5° (8 mm per 1m), so that all supports of the machine
touch the foundation. It is achieved by means of 2 adjustable supports (Fig. 4.2)
Figure 4.2
For safe and convenient operation of the machine it’s recommended to locate it minimum
700 mm from the walls.
It’s prohibited to locate the machine near sources of vibration, heat and electromagnetic
fields, as it may reduce the accuracy of measurements of the machine.
4.2.3 Assemble shaft in accordance with Figure 4.3. Clean the machine spindle hole and
shaft from preserving grease by rag moistened in petrol or white spirit. In accordance with
Figure 4.3a set shaft 2 on machine spindle 1 fastening it by bolt 3 with torque 40 N
m, using
adapter six-sided if necessary. During removal of the shaft it’s allowed to tip slightly on the
surface “B” (on horizontal surface) by a rubber or wooden hammer.
Do not apply force along the spindle axis (for example, during transportation, during wheel mounting
and dismounting)!
