3. Assembly and installation
3.1 Assembly and installation
1. Unpacking:
• Remove the wooden protective crate.
• Use a 10 mm spanner to remove the four screws with which the machine is screwed to
the pallet
• Lift the machine onto the work table by means of the tongs that are mounted.
2. Electrical installation (1)
Take the NL-33 out of the box and place the machine on a stable work table in the vicinity of
a grounded socket. The NL-33 is connected to the power supply (230 V alternating current)
with the supplied mains cable. The NL-33 is grounded and equipped with two fuses type T
16 A.
3. Pneumatic installation (2)
In order to be able to work with the NL-33 without problems, it is very important that you
work with clean, dry air that is oered at a minimum of 3 bar up to a maximum of 8 bar.
The supplied water separator / pressure regulator is only an additional protection for the
machine. The user must ensure that the air pressure does not exceed 8 bar. Connect an air
tube with a diameter of 6 mm to the locally provided air pressure system and connect it to
the water separator / pressure regulator of the NL-33.
