Introduction
In order to ensure maximum performance and long life from your new compressor, the following instructions should
be carefully read and all points regarding installation and operation of your unit should be noted and observed. Air
compressors can cause injury or death if operated improperly. A careful reading of this manual, prior to making any
connection to the motor or compressor, will pay dividends in terms of safe trouble-free operation.
Safety
At Eagle: “Safety is #1.” Your new air compressor is constructed to exacting standards of materials and workmanship. It
has been built with safety in mind. This manual is intended to pass along safety precautions that are often overlooked by
the owner, lessor or operator of our compressors.
Failure to observe the following safety precautions may result in serious injury to personnel and/or damage to property.
Eagle is not stating as fact, nor in any way implying, that the following list of Safety Precautions is an all inclusive list. When
it comes to safety, common sense and good work practices will insure safe operation.
• Each section of this instruction manual, as well as any instructions supplied by manufacturers of supporting equipment,
should be read and understood prior to starting the compressor.
• Never use air produced by Eagle compressors for breathing or food processing without proper filtration equipment. Air
quality must comply with all Federal, Provincial, State and local laws.
• Never install a compressor in an area where children are playing or roaming freely. Children are curious and could
suffer serious burns or dismemberment.
• Turn off and lock out the main power disconnect switch before attempting to work or perform any maintenance.
• DO NOT attempt to service any part of the air system while it is under pressure, make sure the air has been bled
completely; isolate the air system.
• Never use a flammable or toxic solvent for cleaning the air filter or any parts in direct contact with the air being
produced.
• Never operate in excess of the compressor or receiver pressure rating, whichever is lower.
• Never operate the compressor in excess of its rated speed.
• Never operate the unit with its safety guards or shields removed.
• Periodically check the pressure relief valves for proper operation, never change the pressure setting of the pressure
relief valve.
• The compressor should never be operated without the pressure relief valve in place.
• Never use unrated pipe, hose, or lead-tin soldering joints in any parts of the compressed air system.
• Never alter any part of an Eagle air compressor. It has been designed to operate at specific speeds and conditions.
• Eagle will not be responsible for any damages or injuries caused by alterations.
• Make a general overall inspection of the unit daily and correct any unsafe conditions.
