INTRODUCTION

1.The 1-Ton Air/Hydraulic Spring Compressor is an air actuated hydraulic unit with alterna- tive foot operation.

ASSEMBLY

1.The unit requires minimal assembly before use.

2.Attach the Angle Steel (21) to the base of the Upright (14) by using Bolts (20), Nuts

(18)and Washers (19). Be sure Angle Steel

(21)are fixed securely to the base as they provide stability and will be used to secure the unit to the floor.

3.Insert the Foot Pedal (5) into the Socket (B28) on the hydraulic jack and secure with the Bolt (10) and Washer (11).

4.Push Circlips (29) into the groove on each retaining Pin (30).

5.Slide the Upper Strut Support (31) over the Upright (14) to the required height and align the two holes in the support with two holes in the Upright. Slide the two Retaining Pins

(30)through the assembly and retain them in position using the R-clips (32).

6.Two pairs of shoes (28,28A) are supplied. Choose one pair of shoes and attach them to the upper and lower support bracket by using the socket cap Screw (33), the R-clip (32), the Retaining Pin (23) and the Circlip

(22).The shoes are designed to be used as matched pairs and should not be mixed.

7.The unit must now be fixed securely to the ground in order to ensure the safety of the user. Mounting holes are to be found in the brackets, which allow the unit to be secured by way of masonry bolts or sinking pins (not included) into concrete.

WARNING! Whichever method is used, ensure the unit is adequately fixed and cannot topple.

a.Too high an air pressure and unclean air will shorten the life of the unit due to excessive wear, and may be dangerous causing pos- sible damage and/or personal injury.

b.Drain the air supply tank daily and clean the Air Inlet Filter (A16) weekly.

c.When used, drain air filter at least once a day.
