10. Stop the compressor per shutdown proce-
dure and check fluid level.
Allow 5 minutes between starts for oil foam to
subside and the motor to cool.

5.4 Normal start-up procedure

1. Place machine in level, suitable area and
chock the wheels.
2. Check the compressor fluid level. Reference
Section 4.1.
3. Verify the electrical connections are secure.
4. Turn on disconnect at machine and press the
start button.
5. Monitor parameters on instrument panel.
The receiver tank should be drained of conden-
sate on a regular basis. The control line filter
should be drained of condensate on a weekly
basis.

Main motor heater

When the motor heater switch is in the ON position, the
motor heater will be activated until the switch is set to
OFF or the compressor starts.
In extremely wet environments, the motor heater should
be run for 2 hours prior to start of compressor.
The heater should run for 2 hours once a month when the
compressor is unused for an extended period of time.
Additionally, the heater should be run for 2 hours prior to
initial startup following an extended storage period.
CAUTION
CAUTION
Subject to EAR, ECCN EAR99 and related export control restrictions.
The main motor heater will be switched off once
the motor is started.
If the machine is energized and the motor heater
switch is ON, the heater will be energized as
long as the machine is not running and the E-
Stop is not depressed.

5.6 Fan rotation switch

This switch controls the direction of rotation o the cooling
fan. the direction should be set to FORWARD in warm
weather. In cold weather, below 32°F (0°C), the fan can
operate in REVERSE. This will help to prevent freezing of
control lines as well as help to maintain the proper oper-
ating temperature of the compressor. Operating the fan in
REVERSE during warm temperatures can cause high
operating temperatures and ultimately the shutdown of
the compressor.

5.7 Phase/voltage fault relay

This compressor is equipped with a phase/voltage relay
to detect incorrect phasing of incoming power or incorrect
supply voltage. Upon initial power-up, the indicator on the
control panel will be lit if the incoming power was con-
nected out of phase. Swap two of the cables to correct
the phasing.
If the relay is tripped during operation, proper operating
voltage and connections should be checked prior to
restarting compressor.
Even with the fault indicator lit upon initial power up, the
machine will attempt to start for approximately 10 sec-
onds. This is a delay feature provided to allow the com-
pressor to overcome voltage drops upon starting. If after
10 seconds, the voltage or phase fault is still present, the
machine will shut down.
