RECEIVING
Each compressor is operated and tested at the factory before shipment. This testing assures that the unit
is operating properly and that the compressor will deliver its rated capacity. Regardless of the care taken at
the factory, there is a possibility that adjustments may be altered or damage may occur during shipment. For
this reason it is recommended that the unit be checked for proper operation and carefully inspected before it
is put in service. The machine should be observed for any possible malfunction during the first few hours of
operation.
NOTE!
Satisfactory performance of the compressor depends upon the operator’s knowledge of the controls,
instruments, and recommended operating procedures. Consequently, the preceding sections of this manual
and also the entire Engine Operator’s Manual, located at www.kohlerpower.com,
should be read and
understood before attempting to start and operate this machine.

LIFTING
»
Properly drain and dispose of any fluids in the containment frame before lifting.
»
This compressor is provided with a lifting bail for routine lifting and loading onto trucks, oil platforms, or
similar equipment. It is not intended for extended airlift such as via helicopter.
»
Prior to lifting inspect the lifting bail and points of attachment for the following: cracked welds; cracked,
bent, corroded or degraded members; loose bolts or nuts.
Do not lift machine if any of these items are
found to be defective.
»
Make sure entire lifting, rigging, and supporting structure is in good condition and has a rated capacity
of at least the net weight of the compressor plus an additional 10% allowance for the weight of snow,
ice, mud, or stored tools and equipment. If you are unsure of the weight, then weigh the compressor
before lifting.
»
Make sure lifting hook has a functional safety latch, or equivalent, and is fully engaged before lifting
compressor from the ground.
»
Support the compressor by using slings under the main frame with appropriate spreader bars when
airlifting the machine. Lift only in full compliance with OSHA Standards 29 CFR 1910 subpart N, and other
applicable regulations.
»
Do not attempt to lift in high winds.
»
Keep all personnel out from under and away from the compressor when suspended.
»
Lift compressor slowly and smoothly, without jerking. Tilting movements must be limited and rotation
must be prevented.
»
Lift compressor no higher than necessary, use guidelines and have spotters properly located.
»
Do not leave suspended compressor unattended.
»
Set compressor down only on level surfaces capable of supporting at least its net weight plus an
additional 10% allowance for the weight of snow, ice, mud, or stored tools and equipment.
»
If the compressor is provided with parking brakes, make sure they are set; and always block or chock
both sides of all running wheels plus drawbar stabilizer leg before disengaging the lifting hook.
