Compressor (cont’d)

Assembling the Compressor (cont’d)

1) Check the compressor’s serial label to ensure that you have received the model
ordered, and that it has the required pressure rating for its intended use.
2) Place the compressor according to the following guidelines:
a. Position the compressor near a grounded electrical outlet.
b. The compressor must be at least 12 inches (31 cm) from any wall or obstruction,
in a clean, dry ventilated area, to ensure sufficient air flow and cooling.
c. In cold climates, store portable compressors in a heated building when not in use.
This will reduce problems with motor starting and freezing of water condensation.
d. Remove the compressor from the shipping pallet or carton and place it on the
floor or a hard, level surface. The compressor must be level to ensure proper
drainage of the moisture in the tank.
3) Screw in air filter supplied.
4) Replace plastic cover on the engine crank case with oil plug supplied.
5) Connect an air hose to the compressor hose outlet. (not included)

Note:

Make sure to put the proper amount of oil in the air compressor before

you start. (see page 23)
