GENERAL INFORMATION
Your air compressor unit is suitable for operating air tools,
caulking guns, grease guns, sandblasters, etc. Depending on
your application, the following accessories may be required:
l An air pressure regulator to adjust the air pressure entering
the tool or accessory.
l An air line filter for removal of moisture and oil vapor in
compressed air.
l
An in-line lubricator to prolong the life of air tools.
l Separate air transformers which combine the functions of air
regulation and/or moisture and dirt removal.
Contact your nearest authorized dealer or call 1-800-AIR-SERV
for more information on air tools and accessories for your
application.
PREPARATION FOR USE
TRANSPORTING THE UNIT _________________________
• CAUTION The wheels and handle do not provide adequate
clearance, stability or support for pulling the unit
up and down stairs or steps. The unit must be
lifted or pushed up a ramp. Do not use the handle
to lift the unit.
SELECTING A LOCATION ___________________________
GENERAL. Select a clean, dry, well-lighted area with plenty of
space for proper cooling air flow and accessibility. Locate the unit
on a solid level surface at least 12 inches (30 cm) from walls.
Ensure unit is as level as possible.
TEMPERATURE. Ideal operating temperatures are between
32°F and 104°F (0°C and 40°C). In lower temperatures, you must
protect safety/relief valves and drain valves from freezing.
• CAUTION
Never operate in temperatures below 20°F
(-6.6°C) or above 125°F (51.0°C).
HUMID AREAS. In frequently humid areas, moisture may form in
the bare pump and produce sludge in the lubricant, causing
running parts to wear out prematurely. Excessive moisture is
especially likely to occur if the unit is located in an unheated area
that is subject to large temperature changes. Two signs of
excessive humidity are external condensation on the bare pump
when it cools down and a "milky" appearance in petroleum
compressor lubricant. You may be able to prevent moisture from
forming in the bare pump by increasing ventilation or operating
for longer intervals.
NOISE CONSIDERATIONS. Consult local officials for
information regarding acceptable noise levels in your area. To
reduce excessive noise, use vibration mounts or intake silencers,
relocate the unit or construct total enclosures or baffle walls.
Contact your dealer for assistance.
