4.4
FITTING DOOR HANDLE.
Place the handle shaft through the door from the outside
and secure with nylon washer and nut (Fig.1a).
Note:
The door handle has a locking button and when fitting
the handle it should be configured so the locking button
requires pressing to fully latch or unlatch the door.
The handle should be configured so the closed
(locked) position will leave the handle pointing downwards.
4.4.1
Place the washer and door catch on the end of the door
handle shaft and secure with the screw (Fig.1b).
4.5
AIR SUPPLY.
Connect the air supply to the air inlet situated on the regulator.
The inlet connection is 1/4”BSP.
The recommended air hook-up procedure is shown in Fig.2.
4.5.1 You will require a minimum air pressure of 100psi.
4.5.2
WARNING!
Ensure the air supply is clean and does not
exceed 130psi whilst operating the paint can crusher.
Too high an air pressure and unclean air will shorten
the product life, and maybe dangerous, causing damage
and/or personal injury.
4.5.3 Drain the air tank daily. Water in the air line will damage
the ram.
4.5.4 Clean compressor air inlet weekly.
4.5.5 Line pressure should be increased to compensate
for unusually long air hoses (over 8 metres).
4.5.6 Keep hose away from heat, oil and sharp edges.
Check hose for wear, and make certain that all connections are secure.
The paint can crusher is now ready for use.
5. OPERATION
5.1
Place the empty paint can with its lid removed, open end downwards in the centre of the crushing chamber.
5.2
Close the door ensuring the lock is full engaged. (The crusher will not function until the door is firmly closed).
5.3
Turn the control lever (Fig.3) to the ‘DOWN’ position and the piston will descend.
5.4
When the red line on the indicating rod (Fig.3) is level with the main body the can is crushed. You can also listen for the
air to stop flowing (approx 20 seconds).
5.5
Turn the control lever to the ‘UP’ position, when the piston has returned to the start position move the control lever back
to the centre ‘STOP’ position.
WARNING! Never attempt to open the door until the piston is fully retracted and the control lever is in the ‘Stop’ position.
5.6
Open the door and remove the crushed can.
Note:
You may crush several cans at the same time provided
they are all a similar height and providing you have adequate
air pressure. It is necessary to remove the catch basin and clean
it periodically. Dispose of solid residue according to local authority
guidelines. Leave the door ajar when not in use.
Tip:
Crease the can with your fingers before putting in the crusher.
This will enable faster crushing and place less strain on the crusher.
