• ShopTek compressors require a three foot (one
meter) clearance around their perimeter.
• The location should be free from standing
water.
• Clean air should be supplied to the compres-
sor, free from exhaust and paint fumes, dust,
metal particles, or caustic chemical vapors.
• Hot exhaust air should be vented out of the
area to prevent its recirculation back into the
compressor's cooling system.
• Ducting or some other means must be used to
ensure that hot exhaust air is vented away from
the compressor if the compressor's housing
has minimal overhead clearance.
Remove the red shipping straps/shipping studs
before operating the drive assembly. See Figure
4-1 and Figure 4-2.
