UNPACKING / INSTALLATION

Please read this manual in its entirety before operating
your press.

UNPACKING

Remember to save all packing materials - including any crating,
boxes, liners and boards. You may need these for shipping your
machine or should a repair be necessary in the future.

INSPECTION

Inspect your machine for hidden shipping damage. Contact the
delivery company immediately, should you find damage.

INSTALLATION

1. Screw the provided feet into the holes on the bottom of the press.

2. Plug the press and your air compressor to be used into the correct
grounded electrical outlet for each cord. The correct voltage is
indicated on the identification tag.

WARNING: When using an extension cord, use 12 or 14 ga.-3

conductor. Maximum length, 25’ (7.62 m).

3. If using a different air compressor than the one supplied for the
DXA-SS, use a clean (void of oils) and dry (void of water) air
source of 1 10-130 P.S.I. (7-8 bar) to the 1/4” NPT air inlet located
on the back of the machine. Requires 1 CFM (30 L/min). It is
strongly recommended that an external air filter and water trap
be installed at the machine’s air inlet connection. Damage to the
press’s internal air operated components can occur that
be covered under warranty if it is determined that water, oil or
other contaminants have damaged the component.
