Stationary Electric Air Compressor Manual

INITIAL SET-UP:
1. Read safety warnings before setting-up air compressor.
2. Ensure the oil level in the air compressor pump is adequate. If low, add SAE-30W non-detergent oil.
WARNING RISK OF EXPLOSION OR FIRE CAUSING SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH!
DO NOT ALLOW THE MOTOR OR MOTOR/PRESSURE SWITCH TO COME IN CONTACT WITH
FLAMMABLE VAPORS, COMBUSTIBLE DUST, GASES OR OTHER COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS.
AN ELECTRIC SPARK MAY CAUSE AN EXPLOSION OR FIRE.
WHEN USING THE AIR COMPRESSOR FOR SPRAY PAINTING, PLACE THE AIR COMPRESSOR AS
FAR AWAY FROM THE WORK AREA AS POSSIBLE.
LOCATION:
1. In order to avoid damaging the air compressor, do not incline the air compressor transversely or longitudinally
more than 10°.
2. Place air compressor on a concrete surface at least 12 inches away from obstacles that may prevent proper
ventilation. Place the flywheel side of the unit toward the wall. Do not place air compressor in an area:
-where there is evidence of oil or gas leaks.
-where flammable gas vapors or materials may be present.
-where air temperatures fall below 32°F or exceed 104°F.
-where extremely dirty air or water could be drawn into the air compressor.
3. Distribute air compressor weight evenly. Excessive vibration can weaken the air tank creating a hazard of
explosion.
4. Bolt the air compressor to the concrete surface.
a. Mark the areas through the feet of the air compressor where anchor bolts will be placed.
b. Move the air compressor and drill holes in the marked areas to accept the anchor bolts.
c. Pound the anchor bolts into the pre-drilled holes.
d. Place the air compressor over the anchor bolts.
