Location of the Air Compressor
Operate the air compressor in a clean, dry, and well-ventilated area. The flywheel
must be kept clear of obstructions that could interfere with the flow of air through
the air intake filter. The pump crankcase and head are designed with fins to provide
proper cooling.
If humidity is high, an air filter can be installed on the air outlet adapter to remove
excessive moisture. Closely follow the instructions packaged with the filter for
proper installation. It must be installed as close as possible to the accessory. Do not
place the air compressor where heat is excessive.
When locating the compressor outside, make sure there is a minimum of 12 inches
on each side of the compressor. The unit requires fresh air flow for proper cooling.
DO NOT ALLOW THE COMPRESSOR TO GET WET.
Lubrication
and Oil (Fig. 7)
Multi-Viscosity motor oils, like lOW 30, should not be
used in an air compressor. They leave carbon deposits on cdtical
components, thus R_lucing performance and compressor life. U_,u3Jr
comoressor oil only.
Oil
NOTE
Use a air compressor oil such as SAE-20 (API CG/CD heavy duty).
Under extreme winter conditions use SAE-10 weight oil.
Comoressors are shioDed without oil. A small amount of
oil may be present in the pump upon receipt of the air compressor. This
is due to plant testing and does not mean that the pump contains oil. Do
not attempt to operate this air compressor without first adding oilto the
crankcase. Serious damage can result from even limited operation
unless filled with oil and broken in correctly. Make sure to
closely follow initial start-up procedures.
