COCHISE is a 2.6 meter millimetric telescope, mainly devoted to cosmological observations, located at Concordia. In this paper we report on the installation phases and preliminary operations performed with this instrument. At present, COCHISE is the largest telescope located at Concordia, for that reason it represents a pathfinder for future telescopes.
