Unpack

1. Inspect the shipping box carefully for damage. Con-
tact the carrier promptly if there is damage.
2. Open the box and inspect the contents carefully.
There should not be any loose or damaged parts in
the box.
3. Compare the packing slip against all items in the
box. Repost any shortages or other inspection prob-
lems immediately.
4. Remove the unit from the skid and place it in the
desired location. See Location Requirements.

Location Requirements

1. Make sure there is sufficient overhead clearance for
the pump and ram when the ram is in the fully raised
position (approximately 110 in. (280 cm)).
2. If you are installing a vent hood, make sure there is
sufficient horizontal clearance for it. Locate the ram
near a connection to the factory ventilation system.
3. Make sure the air regulators for the pump and ram
are fully accessible, with room to stand directly in
front of the pneumatic control panel and the electri-
cal control panel.
4. When locating the system, do not install closer than
36 in. (914 mm) to vertical surfaces.

5. Make sure there is easy access to an appropriate
electrical power source. The National Electrical
Code requires 3 ft (0.9 m) of open space in front of
the electrical panel. Comply with all local codes and
regulations.
6. For hydraulic rams, locate the hydraulic power sup-
ply in an area that has:
• easy access for servicing and adjusting the
hydraulic pressure on the supply unit
• sufficient clearance for the hydraulic lines that
attach to the pump
• easy access to read the hydraulic fluid level
gauge
