en | 8 | AFC-9/CFC-16 Installation
7. Installation
1. Locate a suitable place to install the unit. This unit must
be installed indoors on a level surface. The unit is
required to be anchor bolted to a concrete floor, for safe
operation.
2. Position the crusher in the desired location in your shop.
Mark the floor for the anchor bolt location to match the
holes in the base of the stand. Four 3/8 or 1/2 inch
diameter anchor bolts are recommended to install the
unit. Install the anchor bolts according to the
manufacturer’s instructions. Secure the unit to the floor
with the anchor bolts.
3. The unit is shipped with the crushing module fastened
to the stand in a lowered position.
CAUTION! The crushing module is very heavy and it is
recommended to use a shop crane capable of handling
the load or a lift truck to perform the lifting. Unbolt the
crushing module from the post. Note: the number of
bolts will depend on the model. Do not remove the 5/16
inch screw from the top of the post, if equipped. Raise
the crushing module from the shipping position to the
working position. Align the mounting holes on the
crushing module with the holes in the stand post and
insert the bolts provided. Secure with the nuts on the
bolts.
4. Connect the catch basin to the appropriate waste oil
container as required by national, state, or local
regulations. The catch basin connection is a 3/4 female
NPT fitting located on the bottom or on the side. If the
opposite side connection is desired, simply remove the
catch basin and install with the connection on the
desired side. The unit may be connected using a 3/4
male NPT fitting and pipe to a remote waste oil tank.
Another option is to connect the catch basin to a drum.
Use a 3/4 pipe close nipple, a 1 in. I.D. oil resistant hose
and a hose clamp to connect the hose to the catch
basin. Install the hose in the bung of the drum and cut
the length of the hose so it will fit in the drum 2 to 4 in.
The installation must provide for the easy removal of the
catch basin as sludge and semi-solid residue from oil
filters may accumulate. The catch basin requires
periodic cleaning to remove solid residues. All such
residues must be transferred to an acceptable
container.
5. If the unit is to be used solely for crushing empty paint
cans, the catch basin does not need to be connected to
any container. However, a drip pan should be placed
beneath it or the pipe drain fittings should be plugged.
The installation of the unit should provide for easy
removal of the catch basin to remove inadvertent spills
and foreign material, which may accumulate in the catch
basin.
6. Connect the air supply to the air inlet. The inlet
connection is 1/4 female NPT. The unit is now ready for
use. Recommended operating air pressure is 100 psi
minimum for most paint cans and car and light truck
filters, 120-PSI minimum for heavy truck filters.
Maximum recommended air pressure is 200 psi.
7. If for any reason the unit does not operate properly after
reviewing the steps above consult the Troubleshooting
section in this Owner’s Manual or contact the
manufacturer using the contact information printed on
the back cover of this manual for further instructions and
assistance. Please have the model number and serial
number of your crushing equipment available. The serial
number is permanently stamped on a metal tag located
above the door.
