Installation and Setup
This unit should be placed on a flat surface such as a floor, bench, or table
and should be near a compressed air source.
Unpack the drive and save packaging material until proper product
operation has been verified.
Install the following components: pressure gauge, pressure filter/regulator
and lubricator assembly, pipe nipple, elbow, and muffler. See Figure 2-5 for
proper orientation, (all items and fittings included except as noted). Use a
thread seal such as PTFE tape for all connections to reduce the possibility
of air leakage.
Connect compressed air line to the 1/4 NPT connection on the regulator
(fitting not supplied). Turn on compressed air line to start pumping.
(Maximum 100 psig inlet.)
NOTE:
Pump will not run unless Door Assembly is closed.
