InStALLAtIOn
Proper care, maintenance and lubrication ensures longevity. The com-
pressor should always be level for proper lubrication. Use only in a clean,
dry, and well-ventilated area. The compressor has heat dissipation fins
for proper cooling. Keep the fins and other parts that collect dust clean.
Do not place rags or other materials on top of the compressor, as this
obstructs cooling and can be a fire hazard.
