3.4 BREAK-IN & START-UP
This instruction manual, as well as any instructions supplied by the manufacturers of supporting equipment,
should be read and understood prior to starting the compressor. With the pre-operation checklist completed
and satisfied proceed to start the compressor.
1. Check oil level in the crankcase. The oil level should be no lower than the center of the sight glass.
2. Check that the drain cock is open.
3. Start compressor and watch for excessive vibrations and/or strange noises. If either exists, stop the
compressor. Refer to
troubleshooting
for help in determining the cause of such problems.
4. Manually activate safety relief valves by pulling ring or lever.
5. Run the compressor unloaded for 20 minutes to lubricate and break-in the internal parts.
6. Close the drain cock. Compressor will fill the tank to the cut out pressure.
7. Check the operation of controls and system pressure.
8. Observe compressor operation closely for the first hour and then frequently for the next 8 hours of
operation.
9. After the first 8 hours of operation change the oil, check the belt tension and inspect the system for leaks.
WARNING!

High temperatures are generated by the operation of the compressor. Contact with hot
surfaces, such as the pump, discharge hose and engine exhaust components could result in a serious
burn
. Allow them to cool off before handling or servicing. Keep children away from the compressor at all
times.
