Assembly
Disconnect, tag and lock out
power source, then release
all pressure from the system
before attempting to install, service,
relocate or perform any maintenance.
AIR FILTER INSTALLATION
Screw inlet filter into 1/2 inch NPT
threaded inlet port on compressor head.
LUBRICATION
THIS UNIT CONTAINS
NO OIL! Follow
lubrication instructions before
operating compressor.
Ensure oil drain extension has been
installed (if included), then remove
the dipstick/breather and fill pump
with oil. Use SAE 30 Industrial Grade
compressor oil or full synthetic motor
oil like Mobil 1
® 10W-30. Do not use
regular automotive oil such as 10W-30.
Additives in regular oil can cause valve
deposits and reduce pump life.
Proper oil fill is illustrated in Figure 1.
For pumps with an oil sight glass, oil
level can be monitored and maintained
as shown in Figure 1.
BREAK-IN
After installing compressor, start the
new pump and run without a load
(0 psi) for 30 minutes. With a pressure
regulator set to 40 psi and no tool or
hose connected to the outlet, run the
compressor for another 30 minutes.
Maintenance
Release
all pressure from the system
before attempting to install,
service, relocate or perform
any maintenance.
All repairs should be performed by an
authorized service representative.
FOR EFFICIENT OPERATION:
1. Check air filter.
2. Check oil level. Low oil level will
result in rapid wear and short pump
life.

MOISTURE IN COMPRESSED AIR
Moisture in compressed air will form
into droplets as it comes from an air
compressor pump. When humidity
is high or when a compressor is in
continuous use for an extended
period of time, this moisture will
collect in the tank. When using a
paint spray or sandblast gun, this
water will be carried from the tank
through the hose, and out of the
gun as droplets mixed with the spray
material.
IMPORTANT: This condensation will
cause water spots in a paint job,
especially when spraying other than
water based paints. If sandblasting, it
will cause the sand to cake and clog
the gun, rendering it ineffective.
A fi lter in the air line, located as
near to the gun as possible, will help
eliminate this moisture.
