DANGER
!
The blower is not intended to be used
with explosive products or in explosive
environments. The blower is not intended
to be used in applications that include
hazardous and toxic gases. Consult the
factory for support.
WARNING
!
Do not operate without guards
in place.
WARNING
!
Maximum operating speed: Table 4-2 states
the maximum operating speed in RPM
(rotations per minute), the maximum pressure
differential, maximum vacuum and maximum
temperature rise. Do not exceed these limits.
WARNING
!
The blower can generate
excessive noise. Hearing
protection is required while the
unit is in operation.
Before starting the blower for the
¿
rst time under
power, recheck the installation thoroughly to
reduce the likelihood of dif
¿
culties. Use the
following checklist as a guide, but consider any
other special conditions in your installation.
1. Be certain no bolts, rags, or dirt have been left
in blower.
2. Be certain that inlet piping is free of debris. If
an open outdoor air intake is used, be sure the
opening is clean and protected by an inlet
¿
lter.
This also applies to indoor use.
3. If installation is not recent, check blower
leveling, drive alignment, belt tension, and
tightness of all mounting bolts.
4. Be certain the proper volume of oil is in the oil
reservoir chambers.
5. Be certain the driving motor is properly
lubricated and connected through suitable
electrical overload devices.
6. With electrical power off and locked out to
prevent accidental starting, rotate the blower
shaft several times by hand to make sure the
blower is rotating freely. Unevenness or tight
spots are indicators of a condition that should
be corrected before progressing.
