Operation; General; Normal Start-Up; Start-Up - Ingersoll Rand SS3 Manuel Du Propriétaire

„ GENERAL
The air compressor is designed for 100% continuous duty
operation with the use of Ingersoll Rand all season select
synthetic lubricant and 60% continuous duty operation with
the use of petroleum lubricant. In other words, synthetic
lubricant allows the compressor to pump continuously
without cycling. Petroleum lubricant limits the compressor
to a maximum of 36 minutes of pumping time per hour. The
compressor should not cycle more than 10 times per hour.
„ NORMAL START-UP

START-UP

„
1. Turn regulator adjusting knob counter-clockwise until
fully closed.
2. Attach hose and accessory.
3. This compressor package is equipped with an
automatic unloader valve assembly eliminating the
need to manually toggle the valve for engine starting.
In addition, the automatic unloader has a "Cold Start"
feature shown in the illustration below. This valve
bleeds air from the compressor discharge airstream
during engine starting, reducing engine starting torque
requirements. These valves are especially helpful on
oil-lubed compressor pumps that may be subject to
low temperatures. When the discharge line is at zero
pressure, the Cold Start valve is open. As the engine
starts, air flows out of the Cold Start bleed hole into the
atmosphere; as discharge pressure increases, the bleed
hole closes and stays closed until the end of the pump-
up cycle. During normal operation a negligible air flow
may be felt at the Cold Start bleed hole. This is not cause
for concern.

4. Follow instructions in engine owner's manual for starting
and running engine.
5. Using the tank pressure gauge for reference, allow tank
pressure to build to maximum pressure.
Unusual noise or vibration indicates a problem Do not
continue to operate until you identify and correct the
source of the problem IF EMERGENCY CONDITIONS
ARE ENCOUNTERED, SHUT-OFF IMMEDIATELY

OPERATION

CAUTION
When the tank reaches cut-out pressure, the
compressor stops pumping but the engine continues
to run When the receiver tank pressure drops below
the factory pre-set minimum, the compressor resumes
pumping and the tank builds to cut-out pressure
6. Turn regulator adjusting knob clockwise to obtain
desired pressure, indicated by the gauge mounted on
the regulator.

SHUTDOWN

„
1. Follow instructions in engine owner's manual for
shutting off engine.
2. Turn regulator adjusting knob counter-clockwise until
fully closed.
3. Remove accessory.
4. Turn regulator adjusting knob clockwise slowly to allow
air to escape from tank. When the tank pressure gauge
indicates 20 psig, turn regulator adjusting knob counter-
clockwise until fully closed.
5. Open manual drain valve slowly to drain moisture from
tank and bleed remaining air.
6. Close manual drain valve.
7. Turn fuel shut-off valve to "off" position before
transporting unit.
