INSTALLING HOSES
WARNING: Risk of unsafe operation. Firmly grasp hose in hand
when installing or disconnecting to prevent hose whip.
1. Ensure regulated pressure gauge reads 0 PSI (0 kPa).
2. Apply sealant tape to hose threads.
3. Assemble hose to air outlet (D). IMPORTANT: Do not assemble
splitters directly to the air outlet (D) (Fig 0).
NOTE: Assembling quick connect bodies to air outlet and
quick connect plugs to hose ends make connecting and
disconnecting hoses simple and easy. Quick connect bodies
and plugs are available for purchase from your local dealer or
authorized service center.
DISCONNECTING HOSES
WARNING: Risk of unsafe operation. Firmly grasp hose in hand
when installing or disconnecting to prevent hose whip.
1. Ensure regulated pressure gauge reads 0 PSI (0kPa).
2. Remove hose from air outlet (D) (Fig 0).
Lubrication and Oil
AIR COMPRESSOR
The air compressor pump was filled WITH oil at the manufacturer.
Check air compressor pump oil level before operating unit. See
Compressor Pump Oil under Maintenance.
Compatibility
Air tools and accessories that are run off the compressor must be
compatible with petroleum based products. If you suspect that a
material is not compatible with petroleum products, an air line filter
for removal of moisture and oil vapor in compressed air is required.
NOTE: Always use an air line filter to remove moisture and oil vapor
when spraying paint.
Location
• Locate the air compressor in a clean, dry, and well ventilated
area.
• Locate the air compressor at least 12" (30.5 cm) away from the
wall or other obstructions that will interfere with the flow of air.
• Locate the air compressor as close to the main power supply
as possible to avoid using long lengths of electrical wiring.
NOTE: Long lengths of electrical wiring could cause power
loss to the motor.
• The air filter must be kept clear of obstructions which could
reduce air flow to the air compressor.
HUMID AREAS
In frequently humid areas, moisture may form in the pump and
produce sludge in the oil, 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 pump when it cools down and a "milky"
appearance in compressor oil. You may be able to prevent
moisture from forming in the 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 silencers, relocate the unit or construct total enclosures or baffle
walls. Contact a D WALT service center or call 1-888-895-4549 for
E
assistance.
