INSTALLATION
PRE-INSTALLATION INSPECTION
NOTE
Each air compressor outfit is care-
fully checked before shipment. With
improper handling, damage may
result in transit and cause problems
in compressor operation; a bent
crankshaft, etc.
Immediately on equipment arrival, check for both con-
cealed and visible damages to avoid expenses being
incurred to correct such problems. This should be done
regardless of any visible signs of damage to the ship-
ping container. Report any damages to carrier and ar-
range for inspection of goods immediately.
VIBRATION MOUNTING KIT
(Stationary Compressor Outfits)
Bolting legs to a stiff surface can
cause tank rupture resulting in serious
injury or damage. Do not permanently
mount compressor to any surface with-
out using the vibration mount kit.
Portable compressor outfits may be permanently
mounted in one location such as a truck bed, if de-
sired. A vibration mount kit is included with the outfit
for this purpose.
1. In order to maintain adequate ventilation for
compressor cooling and to avoid contact with
pick-up truck bed, always mount the outfit at
least 8 inches from any vertical wall. Using the
holes in the air tank support legs as a guide,
mark and drill four 5/16 inch diameter holes in
the mounting surface.
To prevent excessive vibration which
may cause tank rupture or explosion,
never remove the engine stiffener bar
or increase the engine RPM. Make
sure the engine bolts and stiffener bar
nuts are tight. Do not operate the outfit
if the rubber feet are not attached.

2. Insert the vibration mounts in the mounting holes.
Place a flat washer under the mounting surface
and secure each mount with a lockwasher and
nut. See Figure 3.

3. Set the outfit on top of the vibration mounts
(the exposed threaded ends) and secure
each mount to the air tank legs with lock
washer and nut.
LOCATION OF THE COMPRESSOR
OUTFIT
Engine exhaust contains toxic carbon
monoxide. Operate the engine in a well
ventilated area only. If inhaled, it can
cause dizziness, unconsciousness and
possibly death.
The air compressor outfit should be located as close
as possible to the point where the compressed air is
to be used. The area selected should be dry, clean,
cool, and well ventilated. Make certain that the outfit
is mounted level on a solid foundation so no strain is
imposed on the support feet or base. Keep the outfit
away from areas which have dirt, vapor, and volatile
fumes in the atmosphere which may clog and gum
the intake filter and valves causing inefficient
operation. Where this not practical a remote air
intake is recommended.
