General Safety Information
(Continued)
24. Always wear safety glasses
when using a compressed air blow
gun.
The user of any air compressor package
manufactured by Champion is hereby
warned that failure to follow the
preceding Safety and Operation
Precautions can result in personnel
injuries or equipment damage.
However, Champion does not state as
fact, nor does not mean to imply that the
preceding list of Safety and Operating
Precautions is all inclusive, and further,
that the observance of this list will
prevent all personnel injuries or
equipment damage.
EXPLANATION OF SAFETY
INSTRUCTION SYMBOLS AND
DECALS
Indicates
immediate hazards which will result
in severe injury or death.
Indicates hazards
or unsafe practice which could
result in severe injury or death.
Indicates hazards
or unsafe practice which may
result in damage to the compressor
or minor injury.
Observe, understand and retain the
information given in the safety
precaution decals as shown in the
parts list section.
Installation
1. All compressor units must be
located in a clean, well
ventilated dry room so
compressor receives adequate
supply of fresh, clean, cool and
dry air. Further, a compressor
unit that will be used for painting
equipment must be located in a
separate room from that area
wherein body sanding and
painting are done. Abrasive
particles or paint, found to have
clogged the air intake filters and
intake valves, shall void all
warranty consideration.
2. Compressors should never be
located so close to a wall or
other obstruction that flow of air
through the fan bladed flywheel,
which cools the compressor, is
impeded. Permanently
mounted units should have
flywheel at least 12" from wall.
3. If installing a bare pump, make
certain the system has adequate
pressure limiting controls.
Controls could be a pressure
switch for start/stop operation or a
pilot valve for continuous
operation. If a pilot valve is used,
the compressor must be equipped
with head unloaders.
4. A properly sized air check valve
must be installed in the
discharge piping, between the
compressor outlet and the inlet of
any air receiver tank(s) in the
system.
Do not install
isolating valves between compressor
outlet and air receiver. This will
cause excessive pressure if valve is
closed and cause injury and
equipment damage.
Always use an air
pressure regulating device at the
point of use. Failure todo so can
result in injury or equipment damage.
Do not install in an
area where ambient temperature is
below 32°F or above 100°F.
Do not install unit in an area where
air is dirty and/or chemical laden.
Unit is not to be installed outdoors.
Wiring must be
such that when viewing compressor
from opposite shaft end, rotation of
shaft is clockwise as shown by arrow
on guard. Wrong direction rotation
for any length of time will result in
damage to compressor unit.
GENERAL
1. Select proper motor horsepower and
compressor speed by consulting the
performance section.
2. Do not overspeed the compressor.
This will severely shorten the life of
the pump and may overload the
electric motor.

3. Check that the compressor rotation
is counterclockwise facing the
flywheel.
4. All moving parts must be guarded.
A belt guard must be installed
before operating the unit.
5. Operate compressor in a well
ventilated, clean area.
6. Install compressor at least 12" from
nearby walls. This will ensure an un-
obstructed flow of air to cool the
compressor.
7. Make sure the recommended oil
has been added to the compressor
crankcase. See Lubrication under "
Maintenance".
8. This compressor has been designed
for a 80%/ON – 20%/OFF duty cycle.
Preparation for Initial Start-Up
and Operation
1. Pull main disconnect switch to unit to
assure that no power is coming into
the unit.
2. Check compressor crankcase to
make sure oil has been added.
3. Inspect unit for any visible signs of
damage that would have occurred in
shipment or during installation.
4. Activate main disconnect switch.
5. "Jog" motor and check for proper
rotation by direction arrow. If rotation
is wrong, reverse input connections
on the magnetic starter (3 Phase
Units Only).
6. Close receiver outlet hand valve and
start unit.
7. With receiver hand valve closed, let
machine pump up to operating
pressure. At this stage the automatic
controls will take over. Check for
proper cycling operation.
8. Check for proper operation of any
options, e.g., head unloaders with
pilot valve. Refer to individual option
instruction sheet.
9. When the initial run period has
shown no operating problems, shut
unit down and recheck oil level.
10. Open receiver hand valve. The air
compressor unit is now ready for
use.
