P/N 5900158 — Rev. F - March 2022
Connecting to Air
The Tire Changer requires a 15 to 25 CFM Air Source
with an operating air pressure of 140 to 165 PSI (9.6 to
11.4 bar).
Important
:
The Tire Changer uses pneumatic and
electrical energy; if your organization
has Lockout/Tagout policies,
implement them once the unit is
connected to the Air Source.
The Air Lines going out of the Regulator/Filter and
Oiler/Lubricator come connected on the R980AT and
ready for use; no installation or adjustment is required.
On the R980X the Dry Air Out must be connected to the
Tower Tank as shown in the photo to the right.
The incoming Air Source connects
to the Tire Changer via the Air In
connector on the Regulator/Filter.
You need to provide a fitting for
the Air In connector; it is not
supplied.
Drawing not to scale. Not all components shown.
The following drawing shows a quick-connect air fitting (shown on the right, below) that connects to
the Air In connector (shown on the left, below). The fitting is
not
supplied with the Tire Changer.
The
Regulator / Filter
removes contaminants from the incoming air. It also includes a gauge that
shows the operating air pressure of the incoming air. If you see water in the Water Sight Gauge, you
can drain it using the Water Drain Plug. Refer to
The
Oiler / Lubricator
puts pneumatic oil, for lubrication, into the incoming air. This lubricated air is
routed to pneumatic components of the Tire Changer.
