Page 3: General Safety
GENERAL SAFETY 12. Tanks rust from moisture build-up, which weakens the tank. Make sure to drain tank regularly and inspect Since the air compressor and other components periodically for unsafe conditions such as rust formation and (material pump, spray guns, filters, lubricators, hoses, etc.) corrosion. -
Page 4: Spraying Precautions
SPRAYING PRECAUTIONS NOTE: If compressor operates in a hot, moist environment, supply compressor pump with clean, dry outside air. Supply air should be piped in from external sources. 1. Fast moving air will stir up dust and debris which may be harmful. - Page 5 WIRING Connect piping system to tank using the same size fitting as the discharge port. Pipe thread lubricant must be used on all male pipe threads, and all joints are to be made up tight, since small leaks in the piping system are the largest single cause of high operating All wiring and electrical connections must be performed by costs.

Recommended wire sizes may be larger than the 1. Rewire motor per data plate on motor or instruction sheet. minimum set up by local ordinances. If so, the larger size wire should be used to prevent excessive line voltage 2. Check electric rating of magnetic starter and replace drop. - Page 8 LUBRICATION AIR TANK SAFETY VALVE If the pressure switch does not shut off the air compressor at its cut-out pressure setting, the safety valve will protect against high pressure by “popping off” at its factory set pressure (slightly higher than the pressure switch cut-out THIS UNIT CONTAINS NO OIL.

Page 10: Maintenance
TANK Drain liquid from tank daily or after each use. The tank should be carefully inspected at a minimum of once a year. Look for cracks forming near the welds. DRAIN AIR TANK DAILY. Water will condense in the air tank. -
Page 11: Air Filter
AIR FILTER Never run the compressor pump without an intake air filter nor with a clogged intake air filter(s). Use compressed air to blow the filters clean. Do not wash or oil the element. If it cannot be blown clean, the filter(s) must be replaced. Operating compressor with a dirty filter can cause high oil consumption and increase oil contamination in the discharge air. -

The V‐Max Elite series of air compressors feature the rugged V‐Max extreme‐duty, four‐cylinder pump designed and manufactured to operate with maximum efficiency under all load conditions. These rugged 2‐ stage lubricated reciprocating compressors with 100% cast‐iron pumps provide the quality and performance needed for heavy‐use applications like automotive and body repair to manufacturing and industrial service. The 100% cast‐iron V‐Max Elite pump features splash lubrication for total reliability and a V‐4 finned cylinder configuration that provides 360° cooling. Heavy‐duty, disc‐type valves are dependable and accessible without having to remove the cylinder head or performing other complicated valve maintenance procedures. The large V‐Max pump puts out a lot of air with little noise due to a A built‐in intercooler slower RPM speed and two‐stage design. and air‐cooled after cooler chills the air resulting in reduced heat and condensation moisture. By design, V‐Max Elite compressors with their massive energy‐efficient pumps run at considerably slower speeds resulting in lower operating temperature and maximum compressor efficiency. When making an air compressor purchase you should always consider the power it consumes and the general maintenance necessary to keep it running. When you add these costs to the initial purchase price, you’ll realize the true cost of ownership. Electric power costs add up based on the horsepower needed to produce the air required. The more air you can produce ...

Compressor runs cooler, oil life is extended and maintenance is reduced Tapered roller main bearings provide full contact and support of the crankshaft and needle‐type piston pin bearings properly distribute bearing loads Precision balanced flywheel has forced‐air fan blades for optimum compressor cooling and life Magnetic starter provides thermal overload protection and minimizes start loads providing long life and trouble‐free operation ASME rated safety valve protects the compressor from overpressure and safeguards the operator Balanced flywheel and counterbalanced crankshaft results in nearly vibration‐free operation Readily accessible disc‐valves do not require disassembly of compressor piping for easy accessibility and reduced maintenance cost and downtime Corrosion resistant tubing for coolers, separators and valves for longer life and reduced maintenance. Oversized ductile iron crankshaft provides extra strength and longer wear High‐density, die‐cast aluminum alloy rods minimize reciprocating weight Rugged cast iron oil reservoir has convenient sight gauge glass, large oil drain and convenient fill cap. Automatic pressure switch provides auto start and stop Integrated pressure unloader valves are built into the intake valve assembly on the compressor head reducing internal pump heat from initial start‐up compression Pressure gauge with service valve Oversize replaceable air filters ...
