INSTALLATION

Your new Snap-on EEWH311A Tire Changer requires a
simple installation procedure requiring only a few
moments.
Follow these instructions carefully to insure proper and
safe operation.
The Tire Changer is delivered mounted to a wooden
skid. Remove tire changer from its mounts carefully,
taking care to avoid any back strain.
Place Changer where proper operation will be
unobstructed to all sides. Install the machine in a
covered and dry place.
Once placed in the desired location the tire changer
must be bolted to the floor.
Secure the machine to the floor through the holes
provided in the cabinet, using 3/8x2" anchor bolts
(Recommended).

2.1 ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION

BUILDING ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION MUST BE
MADE BY A LICENSED ELECTRICIAN.
Check that the electrical specifications of the power
source are the same as the machine. The machine
uses 110v, 60 hz, grounded single phase 20 amp
source. Electric specifications are clearly marked on
a label at the rear of the machine.
FAILURE TO PROVIDE PROPER ELECTRICAL
SUPPLY AND GROUNDING WILL CREATE A
SHOCK HAZARD TO THE OPERATOR.

2.2 AIR INSTALLATION

THE AIR INSTALLATION MUST BE MADE ONLY BY
QUALIFIED PERSONNEL.
EXCESSIVE AIR PRESSURE CAN SERIOUSLY
INJURE PERSONNEL AND DAMAGE THE
MACHINE.
Ensure that the line pressure is within the limits required
by the machine. If the pressure exceeds 170 psi (12
bar) it is mandatory to install a pressure regulator
before the air inlet of the machine.
If the air pressure is lower than the minimum required
of 110 psi (8 bar) the clamping power of the turntable
and the bead breaker power may be insufficient for
certain tires and substantially reduces tire changer
performance.
It is suggested that the shop air supply be equipped
with a water separator/dryer type modification for
maximum performance.
After ensuring all the above proceed as follows:
A. Connect the machine to the air supply with a rubber
hose (rated for the pressure) with an internal diameter
of no less than 1/4" (6 mm).
- The air inlet fitting is provided with ¼" NPT tapered
pipe threads.
WARNING! BEFORE CONNECTING THE MACHINE
TO THE AIR SUPPLY BE SURE ALL PERSONNEL
ARE CLEAR OF THE MACHINE AND NO ITEMS ARE
LEFT ON THE TURNTABLE.
B. It is strongly recommended that an air valve shut-
off be installed between the shop air supply and the
tire changer for routine maintenance and in case of
an emergency.
C. Should you install any optional accessories, please
refer to the relevant instructions.
:
D. Ensure the functional ability of the air lubricator by
ensuring that the glass sight bowl is filled with air
lubricant.
