Disclaimer
This is a supplemental instruction for handling nitrogen inflation sys-
tems and does not cover the safe operation of the machine, tire/rim
match, or evaluation of safe wheels and tires, or instructions covering
the safe inflation processes. If you need copies of operating instructions
call 1-800-688-6359 or refer to the internet at www.ammcoats.com.
: Do not exceed the design pressure of the equipment
when attaching a separate nitrogen gas inflation supply to the tire
changer. If the nitrogen gas pressure exceeds the design pressure of the
machine, the pressure relief valve will activate continuous; if the pressure
relief is increased, the machine is operating above the design pressure
and could create a hazardous condition.
For reference:
COATS tire changer models 90XX have a system designed for 145 PSI max-
imum input pressure.
COATS tire changer models 30XX, 40XX, 50XX, 60XX, and 70XX have a sys-
tem designed for 175 PSI maximum input pressure.
To comply with this requirement, a small (1/4-inch) adjustable pressure reg-
ulator may be required in series with the nitrogen input system; one is avail-
able from COATS as p/n 8183424, or Grainger p/n 4ZM14 (0-150 PSI
adjustable). Use the gauge on the tank to set the pressure.
