II. INSTALLATION
NOTE: It is very important to read and understand all of these instructions before
attempting installation.
Hamilton will not be responsible for injury due
to improper installation.
The installation process contains two distinct operations, Mechanical Installation, and Electrical
Installation
MECHANICAL INSTALLATION
Unpacking
There are a number of points to keep in mind while unpacking your GL-ACW-P. These items will make
the installation and continued operation of your machine run smoother. These tips are listed below.
Be sure to save your keys
The keys and lock inserts are placed inside a small cloth bag, then packaged in a cushioned envelope
and attached to the outside of the machine. When removing the shrink-wrap, be sure to locate the bag
containing the keys and set it aside so it does not get thrown away. MAKE A PERMANENT RECORD
OF THE NUMBERS ON YOUR KEYS IN CASE A KEY IS LOST AND MUST BE REORDERED.
Remove the packing strap from the hopper
The hopper comes shipped with a packing strap secured around it to minimize the vibrations caused by
shipping. If this strap is not removed, the hopper will not tip out for easy filling. The strap may be cut
off with a pair of wire cutters or sturdy scissors. Cardboard is placed around the edges of the hopper to
protect it during shipping. After removing the strap, be sure to remove the cardboard as well.
Remove all packing debris from the hopper
During unpacking, ensure that debris does not fall into the hopper bowl. If this material is not removed,
the hopper could jam. With the power completely disconnected, remove all loose material inside the
hopper bowl.
Fill hopper with coins
Before powering up the machine for the first time, it is recommended that the hopper be filled with
coins. In order for the hopper to dispense coins, there must be enough coins in the hopper bowl to touch
the two sensing plates located at the bottom of the bowl. Otherwise, the hopper will register as empty.
Positioning
There are no set guidelines for the placement of the GL-ACW-P. However, it is recommended that the
machine is positioned far enough away from the wash entrance to minimize the amount of overspray
that may get into the GL-ACW-P. Also, there is a typical height, from the pavement to the bottom of the
cabinet, of approximately 26".
