ASSEMBLING THE COMPRESSOR

•
Unpack the air compressor. Inspect the unit for damage. If the unit has been
damaged in transit, contact the carrier and complete a damage claim. Do this
immediately because there are time limitations to damage claims.
•
Check the compressor's serial label to ensure that you have received the
model ordered, and that it has the required pressure rating for its intended
use.
•
Locate the compressor according to the following guidelines:
a. Position the compressor near a grounded electrical outlet (see GROUNDING
INSTRUCTIONS, page 12). Avoid using an extension cord; use a longer hose
instead.
b. The compressor must be at least 12" (31 cm) from any wall or obstruction, in a
clean, well-ventilated area, to ensure sufficient air flow and cooling.
c. In cold climates, store portable compressors in a heated building when not in
use. This will reduce problems with motor starting and freezing of
water condensation.
d. Remove the compressor from the shipping pallet or carton and place it on the
floor or a hard, level surface. The compressor must be level to ensure proper
drainage of the moisture in the tank.
•
Connect an air hose to the compressor hose outlet. The tank will drop to the
kick-in pressure, the pressure switch will restart the motor automatically,
without warning, and the pump will resume compressing air.
