WARNING
!
Maximum operating speed:
Table 4-1
states the
maximum operating speed in RPM (rotations
per minute) and maximum temperature. Do not
exceed these limits.
Before starting the booster for the first time
under power, recheck the installation thoroughly
to reduce the likelihood of difficulties. Use the
following checklist as a guide, but also consider
any other special conditions in your installation.
1. Be certain no bolts, rags, or dirt have been left
in booster.
2. Be certain that inlet piping is free of debris. If
an open outdoor air intake is used, be sure the
opening is clean and protected by an inlet filter.
This also applies to indoor use.
3. If installation is not recent, check booster
leveling, drive alignment, belt tension, and
tightness of all mounting bolts.
4. Be certain the proper volume of oil is in the oil
reservoir chambers.
5. Be certain the driving motor is properly
lubricated and connected through suitable
electrical overload devices.
6. With electrical power off and locked out to
prevent accidental starting, rotate the booster
shaft several times by hand to make sure the
booster is rotating freely. Unevenness or tight
spots are indicators of a condition that should
be corrected before progressing.
7. Check motor rotation by momentarily pushing
the START button and then checking the flow
direction of the booster. Reverse the motor
connections if flow is in the wrong direction.
