TR20 Installation, Operating & Maintenance Manual

Installation
3.1
General
When selecting the machine mounting position, the following points should
be considered:
• Access to oil fill/level and drain plugs
• Install away from sources of heat, e.g. vehicle exhaust air or hot pipes that
could effect the compressor temperature in any way.
• Venting relief/control valve air must be unobstructed and direct to the
atmosphere.
• Fit the relief and/or protection valve control valves as close as possible to
the TR20 discharge port.
• Venting valves must be positioned so that hot air cannot vent onto the
operator or the compressor
• Silencers should be fitted as close as possible to the discharge port.
For the recommended layout of the machine and ancillaries, see figure 1.
3.2
Lifting
- see fig. 3
The weight of the basic compressor without ancillaries is 140 kg.
The mounting face to which the basic machine is fitted should be flat to
avoid distortion/stress and mounting bolts/locking nuts should be M16,
grade 8.8 or higher.
The basic compressor is supplied with an eyebolt attached for lifting.
When the machine has been installed, the eyebolt should be removed.
Any equipment used for lifting should be rated accordingly.

Do not lift using other parts of
the machine.
