SETTING -- UP (ALL UNITS)
•
Position as level as possible. The design of these
units permits a 15 degree sidewise limit on
out--of--level operation.
•
When the unit is to be operated out--of--level,
it is
important:
(1) To keep the engine crankcase oil level near the high
level mark (with the unit level).
(2) To have the compressor oil level gauge show no
more than mid--scale. Do not overfill either the engine
crankcase or the compressor lubricating oil system.
(3) The side doors must be closed to maintain a
cooling air path and to avoid recirculation hot air.
COMPRESSOR OIL LEVEL
The oil level should be checked before the unit is
started. Always check the oil level while the unit is
level, the engine off, and there is zero pressure in the
separator tank. The optimum oil level is with the
pointer at the top of the green section on the level
gage. Add oil if the pointer reaches the bottom of the
green section.
Note: The oil level gage will not read properly while the
engine is running.
YELLOW -- TOO HIGH
GREEN -- OK
TOO LOW

CAUTION
Do not remove pressure cap from a HOT radiator.
Allow radiator to cool down before removing
pressure cap. Use extreme care when
removing a pressure cap from a liquid cooling
system for the engine. The sudden release of
pressure from a heated cooling system can result
in a loss of coolant and possible severe personal
injury.
WARNING
NO SMOKING, SPARKS or OPEN FLAME near
fuel.
CAUTION
Do not connect the air discharge on this unit into
a common header with any other unit of any
description, or any other source of compressed
air, without first making sure a check valve is used
between the header and the unit. If this unit is
connected with another unit, a safety hazard
could occur.
WARNING
Unrestricted air flow from a hose will result in a
whipping motion of the hose which can cause
severe injury or death. A safety device must be
attached to the hose at the source of supply to
reduce pressure in case of hose failure or other
sudden pressure release. Reference: OSHA
regulation 29 CFR Section 1926.302 (b).
BEFORE STARTING:
S
All checks should be made while the unit is level.
•
Open service valve (s) to ensure pressure is relieved
in receiver--separator system. Close valve (s) in order
to build up full air pressure and ensure proper oil
circulation.
•
Check battery for proper connections and condition.
•
Check the engine oil level. Maintain per marks on
dipstick.
•
Check the fuel level. Add only CLEAN DIESEL fuel
for maximum service from the engine.
•
Check the compressor lubricating oil level. The
optimum oil level is with the pointer at the top of the
green section on the level gages. Add oil if the pointer
reaches the bottom of the green section. Do not
overfill.
Check the coolant level in the radiator and overflow
bottle.
