BASE DETAIL
77-3312 R3.0 (06/2025) 7/28 www.binks.com
EN
INTENDED USE
The pneumatic elevator is designed for raising and lowering a drum/tank cover which has equipment mounted to
it, such as a pump, agitator or suction tube, generally for use in the painting industry.
This allows the drum/tank to be changed in the raised position. It is for professional trained users only.
PRIOR TO USE
WARNING
Attach the elevator base securely to a flat and level concrete floor, using 4 x M12 anchor bolts, each with an
applied tensile load of 6.1kN minimum.
For further fixing advice, please refer to the following documents:
BS 8539:2012 - Code of practice for the selection and installation of post-installed anchors in concrete and
masonry
BS EN 206:2013 - Concrete - specification, performance, production and conformity
EN 1992-4:2016 - Design of fastening for use in concrete
CEO Guidance Note - ETAs for anchors used in construction
Attach flexible hoses to all connections.
Connect a filtered and regulated air supply to the air connection.
Include a pressure relieving isolation valve.
Locate within 2m [80].
Operate the elevator at a low pressure for the first time and adjust speed of operation as specified.
Ensure maximum load and position are not exceeded.
Ensure the drum can be located in the correct position consistently, preferably with a location fixture.
The drum/tank cover position should be set with the elevator fully down.
Set the positon on the Ø32 mounting bar so there is a small clearance with the top of the drum/tank.
ATEX SPECIAL CONDITIONS FOR SAFE USE
WARNING
The elevator must be earthed at all times.
A resistance <1Ω when measuring with an ohm-meter at the earth point
Earth connection, Binks Part No. DEK-22
Metallic parts maintain earth continuity by either direct contact, toothed washers or earth cables.
After maintenance, ensure continuity is present to earth of <1 Ohm

Toggle the valve '10' in the up position to turn air onto the agitator, valve '9' will only allow air to flow if the
elevator is in the down position.
The down position turns the air off.
Pump air control:
Toggle the valve '11' in the up position to turn air onto the agitator, the down position turns the air off.
WARNING
Valves '6' & '7' lock air pressure in the upper and lower sections of the cylinder.
Before undertaking any maintenance, drive the elevator down with pushbutton '5' and press pressure relief
switch on valve '6' until all air has been exhausted from the cylinder.
Up/Down position:
Initial speed -
The starting speed of up/down can be adjusted using valve '3' (located on inlet manifold), to increase or decrease
the speed.
See speed recommendation P6.
The remaining stroke speed is set using:
Up stroke - valve '6'
Down stroke - valve '7'.
OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENT - (REFER TO DIAGRAM ON P9)
Up/Down speed:
The unit should be in the fully down position when equipment mounted to it is in use.
To raise the elevator, press the top control panel pushbutton '4', the position can be stopped at any point.
To lower the elevator, press the bottom control panel pushbutton '5', the position can be stopped at any point.
NOTE
The valve '7' prevents downwards movement, unless it receives a signal from valve '5', preventing the elevator
dropping even if the hoses are disconnected accidentally.
CAUTION
The elevator should not be used as a permanent support.
Ensure personnel are clear of the elevator and operator has a clear view before operating.
