DO NOT operate this air cleaner in an environment that has volatile fumes from fuels, paints, pesticides, smoke, etc.

NEVER operate the air cleaner in an environment that has the particles of silica, metal, asbestos, or hazardous bacteria.

MAKE SURE before making any adjustments, servicing or installing parts, the switch is in the “OFF” position and the cord is un-plugged from the power source.

DO NOT place your hands or tools near the open inlet during operation for any reason.

KEEP your fingers and tools away from the fan output screen during fan operation.

ALWAYS make sure that the air cleaner is in a stable position, either it is hung from the ceiling or placed on the table.

PROPER GROUNDING

Grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock.

Make sure the cord is plugged into a properly installed and grounded power outlet. To prevent electrical hazards, have a qualified electrician ensure that the line is properly wired.

Make sure that the air cleaner is connected to an outlet having the same configuration as the plug. If an adaptor plug is used, it must be attached to the metal screw of the receptacle.

It is strongly recommended not to use extension cords with your CX407. Always try to position your machine close to the power source so that you do not need to use extension cords.

If you really find it necessary to use an extension cord, make sure the extension cord does not exceed 50-feet in length and the cord is 14-gauge to prevent motor damage.

WARNING!

Improper connection of the equipmentgrounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded.

MOUNTING

The CX407 can be mounted in three ways:

TABLE TOP MOUNT: Using rubber feet and/or the flush mount flange brackets for a table-top application.

HANGING MOUNT: Using the eye bolts for a high ceiling application.

FLUSH MOUNT: Using the flange brackets for a wall or low ceiling application.

WARNING!

Make sure the air cleaner is OFF and the cord is disconnected from the power source while installing, removing, servicing and performing any maintenance job.

TABLE TOP MOUNT

The CX407 can be used as a portable air filtration system by installing the rubber feet and placing the unit on a work-bench or a table.

To set up the air cleaner for table top operation:

Get the help of an assistant and carefully place the air cleaner unit upside down.

The rubber feet feature sticky backing.

Attach the rubber feet to the bottom of the air cleaner as shown in figure-4.

For permanent table top mounting, refer to the Flush Mount procedure on page-9 and install the unit on the table top with the flush mount flange brackets.

Figure-4 Rubber feet attached to the bottom of the air cleaner unit

HANGING MOUNT

The CX407 can be hung from the ceiling, operating at an optimum height from the floor.

To install the CX407, hung from the ceiling:

Install four chains, cable or steel strapping lines to the ceiling from the support or joist capable of holding 105 lbs.

Remove the plug screws and retain these screws as you will need to reinstall them to seal back the air filter unit when eye bolts are removed.

Figure-5 Removing the plug screws

8

Thread the eye bolts into the hole where plug screws were removed. See figure-6.

Figure-6 Installing the eye bolt

Tighten the eye bolts until they are snug against the air filter.

Get the help of an assistant or a friend and raise the air cleaner and secure to the four hanging lines through the four eye bolts.

WARNING!

Do not fasten the air cleaner onto sheet rock or dry wall, drop ceiling tile or frame.

Do not use a rope or power cord to hang the air cleaner. Do not locate the unit in a corner or near any heating or cooling vents. Do not use chain rated for a less minimum of 150 lbs working load for each support. Do not use fasteners that can tear out and make the air cleaner fall.

Failure to follow these instructions may result in serious damage (to the unit), injury or death.

When the air cleaner is supported by wood structural member:

The minimum recommended eye bold size should be 5/16” -18” x 2” (not supplied)

1/4" pilot holes are recommended to help guide the eye bolts.

Ensure the eye bolts penetrate at least

40mm into the wood structure.

When the air cleaner is supported by concrete structure:

The minimum recommended expansion eye bolt size is 5/16” – 18” x 2”.

Drill 12mm pilot holes into the concrete structure and press the expansion eye bolt into hole and tighten the bolt until it is securely held to the ceiling.

FLUSH MOUNT

When the shop is small, the CX407 air cleaner can be installed flush to the ceiling of the shop or to the table top using flange mounts.

Mount the air cleaner ONLY to load bearing supports, wall studs, steel chain or table that can hold 150 lbs of load.

To install the air cleaner:

Locate the supports in the wall or ceiling and mark the air cleaner unit bolt pattern on the wall or ceiling (17-1/4” from left to right and 31” from front to rear)

Drill the holes to accept at least 1/4" shank bolts for studs or use 1/4” nuts, bolts and washers for mounting.

9

Place the flange bracket under the air cleaner lip at the mounting hole location and secure it using screws and washers provided as shown in figure-7.

Install the other three flange brackets in the same manner.

For permanent table top mounting, use the lower lip holes.

CONTROL PANEL

The CX407 control panel allows you turn the air cleaner ON and OFF manually and set the fan speed.

Figure-7 Mounting flange bracket to the air cleaner

Get the help of an assistant or a friend to lift the air cleaner and secure it to the wall or the ceiling using screws and washers (not provided).

WARNING!

Do not use support rated for a less minimum of 150 lbs working load. Do not use fasteners that can tear out and make the air cleaner fall down.

Failure to follow these instructions may result in serious damage (to the unit), injury or death.

Figure-8 Control panel

The control panel features two buttons:

OFF and ON/SPEED.

OFF Button: Allows turning the air cleaner

OFF manually.

ON/SPEED Button: Allows turning the air cleaner ON with one push of the button and for every additional push, the fan cycles from Low to Medium to High. The speed selection is indicated by a red LED light.

10

REMOTE CONTROLLER

The CX407 is provided with a remote controller which enables the operator to operate the air cleaner remotely.

The remote control works within 75 feet range from the air cleaner unit and uses two AAA batteries. See figure-9.

Figure-9 Remote controller for CX407

The remote controlller features:

OFF Button: Turns power to the air cleaner

OFF.

ON/SPEED Button: Allows turning the air cleaner ON with one push of the button and for every additional push, the fan cycles from Low to Medium to High.

TIME Button: Allows setting the auto shutoff time for the air cleaner in 1 hour, 2 hours, and 4 hours.

FILTERS

When to change the primary filter and when to service the secondary filter, depends upon the usage of the air cleaner.

Checking the filters once a week for small shops is good while checking once a day is very important for heavy use and big shops.

WARNING!

Make sure to wear a dust mask and safety glasses when servicing and changing filters. The tiny dust particles can go into your lungs and cause serious long term illness.

WARNING!

Make sure the unit is OFF and the cord is disconnected from the power source when installing, removing, or servicing any part of the unit.

11

CHANGING / SERVICING

THE FILTERS

Disconnect the unit from the power source.

Move the retainer latch upward and remove the primary filter as shown in figure-10.

Remove the secondary filter and wash it with warm water until it is clean. Let it dry.

See figure-11.

Figure-11 Secondary filter

Vaccum the dust inside the air cleaner and reinstall the secondary filter.

Install a new primary filter and push the retainer latch down to hold the filter.

Figure-10 Removing the primary filter

Remember not to clean the secondary filter using compressed air. Doing so, will damage the filter and reduce the filtering qaulity.
