Apply a thin layer of grease to the hole

and keyway, then, with the indented side

of the Pulley center facing you, align

the keyway with the Woodruff Key (50)

and slide the Pump Pulley (58) over the

Crankshaft.

wArning! do not force or hammer the

Pump Pulley onto the Crankshaft.
Slide the Spring Washer (60) and

4.

Washer (59) onto the Bolt (61) and insert

the Bolt through Pump Pulley and thread

into the Crankshaft. Tighten using a

wrench (not included).

note: The bolt is a left-hand thread. To

fasten, turn bolt counterclockwise.

installation

note: depending on your level of

expertise, you may wish to have a

qualified technician perform this

installation.

CAuTion: Avoid damage to the Air

Compressor Pump and other equipment.

The Compressor Pump mounting

platform should be flat, level, and strong

enough to support the combined weight

of the Pump, electric motor or engine,

and related hardware and equipment. It

must also be capable of withstanding the

vibration and tension of the drive belts. It

must incorporate easy access to the Oil

Drain Plug (36).
Place the Air Compressor Pump on the

1.

mounting surface at the same level as the 5

HP motor used to drive it.

note: Use a motor with the appropriate size

pulley to get the needed Pump RPM. For

most applications it is recommended to

run this unit at the lower RPM.

Calculation for motor Pulley:

Motor Pulley

Pump Pulley

Pump Pulley Dia:

14.5”

(14.5” Pump Pulley dia. x 655 Pump rPm)

motor rPm

9,497.5

=

Pulley

dia.

To calculate the motor and motor pulley

needed to power the pump, multiply the

Pump Pulley diameter (14.5”) times the

pump working RPM (1050), then divide

by the engine RPM. This will determine

the motor pulley diameter (in inches)

needed to run the unit.
For example: If you have a 1725 RPM

motor, to calculate the pulley diameter

needed, multiply 14.5 x 655, then divide

by 1725, which equals the motor pulley

size of 5.5”. Use the pulley size closest

to this figure.

9,497.5

1725

=

5.5”

Or, use the following equation if you

have a 3450 RPM motor:

9,497.5

3450

=

2.75”

2. The 14-1/2 inch V-groove Pump Pulley

(58) must be in perfect alignment with

the motor pulley (not included).

note: Ensure the Pump Pulley is installed for

counter-clockwise rotation when facing

the pulley side of the Pump.

CAuTion: misalignment between the

motor and the Pump can cause

damage to both the motor and the

compressor pump.

Use a straight edge,

such as a yardstick, to check and adjust

alignment as needed.
