Model H4517/H4518 Air Compressors -11
-
To connect air tools to your air com-
pressor:
1.
Make sure the compressor model you
use has a sufficient cubic feet per
minute (CFM) output for the air tool
you plan to connect. (Most air tools
will have an air requirement stated in
terms of a specific CFM at a specific
pressure.)
2. The compressor should put out a
higher CFM than the tool requires.
If you are connecting multiple tools
that will be used simultaneously, then
the CFM for each tool should be
added together and compared to the
compressor output value.
3. Connect the tool, using a good quality
air line with an adequate length to
reach from the compressor to the
point of use.
Note—Quick-connect couplers, shown in
Figure 10, are a good option for a fast and
sure connection of tools and air hoses.
Consideration should also be given to the
type of usage. A nailer or staple gun uses
air in short bursts and it is easier for the
compressor to maintain pressure. A paint
sprayer or grinder tends to use a more
continuous stream of air as these tools are
run for longer time periods. It is always
better to oversize a compressor to allow
for variation in the type of usage and the
number of tools to be powered. Air tools
being operated with insufficient air volume
will not perform their function satisfactorily.

CONNECTING TOOLS
Always disconnect air hose from
tools whenever not in use or while
servicing! During maintenance, a
tool connected to air may operate
accidentally, causing serious per-
sonal injury!
These couplers are included with the air
compressor. Make certain the air hose will
not be placed in a position where it can
become constricted or cut by a sharp
object. Note—Running over a hose with
heavy vehicles may not cause an immedi-
ate leak, but it will shorten the life of the
hose.
The Model H4517/H4518 Air
Compressors are specifically
designed for air tool operation. DO
NOT MODIFY OR USE THIS
MACHINE FOR ANY OTHER PUR-
POSE. Modifications or improper
use of this tool will void the warran-
ty. If you are confused about any
aspect of this machine, DO NOT use
it until you have answered all your
questions. Serious personal injury
may occur.
