Installation Instructions

1. Before beginning any work, clear the area and posi-

tion the machine for easy access. Disconnect all power
sources, both air and electricity inputs. Allow any stored
air in the reservoir to escape by depressing the inflate
valve.

Figure 1 - Disconnect power and air sources.

4. Next, remove nut on the bolt supporting the swing

arm pivot system. With the new 14-inch (356 mm) long
bolt push the old bolt out. Make sure the small washer
is on the head of the new bolt.

2. Verify the stored air pressure is zero by completely

depressing the inflation foot valve located on the side of
the machine. Next with a 9/16-inch wrench remove the
safety valve (reserve for later use).

Safety Valve

Figure 2 - Remove safety valve.

3. Install the manifold; then assemble the safety valve

(reserved) and barbed hose fitting onto the manifold.
Tighten until the barbed fitting is positioned as shown
in photo.

Figure 4 - Use new long bolt to push old bolt out.

5. Next, install the large spacer, the swing arm (note

position of the decal) with pivot pin spacer, swing arm
sleeve, large washer and the lock nut. Next, using large
wrenches, tighten the assembly to 240 ft. pounds
torque (very tight). If the swing arm rotation is too
tight, loosen the lock nut until the swing arm assembly
rotates with a slight amount of resistance.
