IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
2
Use Safety Guard for Pulleys. The Air Compressor Pump Pulley (58), V-belts (not included), and motor
pulley (not included) must be covered by a safety guard (not included) covering all moving elements before
operation.
Before first and every use, verify Pump has sufficient oil.
The use of accessories or attachments not recommended by the manufacturer may result in a risk of
injury to persons.
Misalignment between Motor and Pump can damage the Pump Pulley. Use a straight edge, such as a
yardstick, to check and adjust alignment as needed.
Use proper size motor and motor pulley. This Air Compressor Pump must be installed with a 5 HP electric
motor and pulley (both not included) which can turn the Air Compressor Pump Pulley at approximately 1050
rpm.
Install motor, pulley belts and pulley belt cover securely. Be sure to use the proper size bolts to install the
motor (not included). The belts and belt cover (not included) must be strong enough to prevent breaking
and possible injury.
Be sure all equipment is rated to the appropriate capacity of this pump. Make sure that the lowest rated
piece of equipment being used can handle the maximum pressure of the Air Compressor Pump.
Avoid burns. The Cylinders (22), Cylinder Heads (6) and Air Outlet components become very hot during
operation. DO NOT touch.
Industrial applications must follow OSHA guidelines.
Maintain labels and nameplates on the Compressor Pump. These carry important safety information. If
unreadable or missing, contact Stark Tools for a replacement.
