For correct use of the shock absorber removal tool, always keep to the operating pressure, as measu-
red at the machine inlet. Feed the machine with clean, condensate-free air. Excessively high pressure
or humidity in supply air results in shorter life for the mechanical parts and may damage the machine.
USE
Removal / Installation
Before using the shock absorber removal tool, make sure that it has been correctly fixed to the ground,
using the four holes in the base of the frame (fig. 1).
Check that the shock absorber removal tool runs correctly,
performing several idle operations through the control lever.
NB:
The shock absorber removal tool is fitted with a safety hook. For
any operations to be performed through the control lever, the ring
nut on the back of the hook should be tightened. Screw up the ring
nut to start the pneumatic safety system.
Remove the shock absorber as follows:
• Open the protective grid, releasing the locking pin.
• Apply the lower bracket suitable for the shock absorber to remove, fitting the pins of the bracket into
the proper slots.
• Place the shock absorber on the lower bracket in the first turn; rotate the shock absorber until
the bracket fits into the maximum sliding point (fig. 2-3).
• Close the protective grid.
• Bring the oscillating arms near the spring; afterwards fit
the upper clamps onto the first usable turn, through the control
lever (fig. 4).
• After correctly placing the spring on the bracket, and
positioning the upper clamps, fit the safety hook onto the first
usable turn (fig. 5).
