Installation
Optional - Vacuum Tank Configuration
The Vacuum Tank option comprises of a separate vacuum tank complete with fittings so that it can easily
be connected to the main body of the machine. Simply connect the vacuum tank hose to the main body
labelled port and fit the metal clip to retain the pipe.
An Oil pump is fitted to the machine internally that will continually remove air from the tank. When required
the vacuum valve connects both the tank and the pump to the mould tool table.
Optional - Heating Pyrometer
The heating pyrometer is mounted on the heater and further control equipment preconfigured at part of the
machine.
A pressure tank is supplied and mounted to the crossmember. Fit the rear crossmember with the pressure
tank mounted. The 4mm and 8mm pipes attached to the tank must be connected to the labelled push in
fittings on the rear of the machine. If the Heat Pyrometer option is supplied with the Vacuum Tank option
then the pyrometer pressure tank may be fitted on top of the vacuum tank using the fittings supplied.
Optional – Castors
Castors may be fitted to the 686 to allow the machine to be moved and relocated easily. If the machine
is supplied with the castor option then the two rear castors will be pre-mounted to the rear stabiliser
crossmember. The main frame of the machine will have 4 further castors. There are fixing points in each
corner. The mainframe castor must be fitted first.
The machine will be supplied on a pallet or crate. Move the machine so that the centre front of the machine
is at the corner of the pallet and the underside of the front two corners are accessible. The two locking
castors are fitted at the front of the machine by screwing in the M10 hex screw supplied to the fixing in the
base using a 17mm spanner. Ensure the castor fixings are tight.
Fit the rear standard castors with the fixings in the same way by moving the machine forwards again so that
the rear of the mainframe is supported by the corner of the pallet. When all fixings are tight, carefully move
the machine off the pallet and continue with the installation assembly.
