Chose the installation site according to the current rules on Safety at Work.
The automatic tire-changer needs to be connected to the electric network. It is therefore advisable to install it in a place where this connection is
available.
Moreover, the installation space must allow the operator to use the machine and all its components without any restriction (see dimensions given in
fig. 5) In case of installation outdoor it is necessary to protect the machine against rain by means of any kind of footing.

IT IS FORBIDDEN to use the machine in explosive at-

Fig.5
The tire-changer must be installed on a level concrete floor at least 6” (15 cm) thick, with a minimum concrete quality of B25 in compliance with DIN
1045 requirements (foundations). See the diagram herebelow.
If a floor of this type is not available on site, a suitable foundation under the bearing points must be provided.
The installation surface must be levelled
in all directions.
Inclinations up to 0,25% relative to the horizontal can be compensated using suitable shims, wedges or the alike.
When working with wheels, whose weight is higher than 2,204 lbs (1,000 kg)., it is necessary to fasten the tire-changer
to the floor by means of proper anchor bolts.
Use a Ø 16 widia bit to drill the floor to a depth of at least 0.63 inch (130 mm)., passing through the holes already provided in the base frame.
If there is an additional floor covering (B), or if shims or wedges are necessary for levelling (C), longer anchor bolts must be used.
Place an anchor bolt into each hole.
Make always sure that the bolts extend at least 4.90” (125 mm) into the concrete slab, as shown in fig. 6
Tighten the anchor bolts.
