2.0 INSTALLATION

Your new Snap-on EEWH312A 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 unob-
structed to all sides. Install the machine in a covered
and dry place.

2.0.1 Anchoring

Once placed in the desired location the tire changer
must be bolted to the fl oor using only the rear two
mounting holes.
Tire Changer should be anchored to concrete
fl oor for increased safety.
2.1 ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION
BUILDING ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION MUST BE
MADE BY A LICENSED ELECTRICIAN.
Check that the electrical specifi cations of the power
source are the same of the machine. The machine uses
115v, 60 hz, single phase 20 amp source. Electric
specifi cations are clearly marked on a label on the right
side 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 re-
quired 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 insuffi cient for
certain tires and substantially reduces tire changer
performance.
It is suggested that the air supply be equipped with a
water separator/dryer type modifi cation 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 1/2" (12.5mm).
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 recommended that an air valve shut-off be
installed between the shop air supply and the tire
changer in case of air line or fi lter failure.
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 site bowl is fi lled with air
lubricant.
