Operation & Maintenance Manual Safety Safety Precautions Never operate the compressor without first observing all safety warnings and carefully reading the Operation and Maintenance Manual shipped from the factory with this compressor. Ensure the operator reads and understands the decals and consults the manuals before operation or performing maintenance.
Safety Operation & Maintenance Manual Compressed Air Compressed air can be dangerous if incorrectly handled. Prior to performing maintenance or service on the compressor, ensure all pressure is vented from the system and the compressor cannot be started accidentally. Ensure the compressor is operating at the rated pressure and the rated pressure is known to all relevant personnel.
Operation & Maintenance Manual Safety Exhaust System Hot engine exhaust gas and hot exhaust system surfaces are produced during and after compressor operation. Avoid contact with exhaust gas and hot exhaust system surfaces. Keep flammable and combustible materials away. Do not operate compressor on, under, or near flammable or combustible materials.
Safety Operation & Maintenance Manual Avoid Ingestion, Skin Contact, And Inhalation Of Fumes. Should compressor oil come into contact with the eyes, irrigate with water for at least 5 minutes. Should compressor oil come into contact with the skin, wash off immediately. Consult a physician if large amounts of compressor oil are ingested or if compressor oil is inhaled.
Operation & Maintenance Manual Safety Radiator Hot engine coolant and steam can cause injury. Ensure the Radiator Pressure Cap is removed with due care and attention. Do not remove Radiator Pressure Cap from a HOT radiator. Allow radiator to cool before removing Radiator Pressure Cap.

Safety Operation & Maintenance Manual The compressor must be towed in a level attitude in order to maintain correct handling, braking, and lighting functions. This can be achieved by correct selection and adjustment of the vehicle towing hitch and, on variable height running gear, adjustment of the drawbar. 1.
Operation & Maintenance Manual Safety Decals Free Safety Decals To promote communication of Safety Warnings on products manufactured by the Portable Power Division in Statesville, N.C., Safety Decals are available FREE of charge. Safety Decals are identified by the decal heading: DANGER, WARNING, CAUTION, NOTICE. Decal part numbers are located in the lower right hand corner of each decal and are also listed in the compressor Parts Manual.

Operating Instructions Operation & Maintenance Manual Close air service valves. • Allow the unit to run at idle for 3 to 5 minutes to reduce the engine temperatures. • Move Power Switch to OFF position. • When the engine stops, automatic blowdown valve should relieve system air pressure.
Operation & Maintenance Manual Operating Instructions Speed and Pressure Regulator Adjustment Instructions Before Starting 1. Close Service Valves. After Starting 2. Push the service air button on the control panel. The unit should speed up, build air pressure and drop back to idle. While the at idle, turn the manual valve to the closed position, turn the adjusting screw on the High pressure regulator clockwise until the pressure gauge indicates 175-180 psi.
Operating Instructions Operation & Maintenance Manual Engine Speed Control The factory has preset the engine speed control to provide 2600 rpm engine speed when the clevis pin in installed in the hole closest to the flywheel housing as shown below. (See Figure 1).
Operation & Maintenance Manual Maintenance Maintenance Information Any unauthorized modification or failure to maintain this equipment may make it unsafe and out of factory warranty. If performing more than visual inspections, disconnect battery cables and open manual blowdown valve. Use extreme care to avoid contacting hot surfaces (engine exhaust manifold, piping, air receiver, and air discharge piping, etc.).

Maintenance Operation & Maintenance Manual Some of the air lines are nylon tubing. The associated fittings are “push-in” design. Features are as follows: Pulling on the tubing will cause the inner sleeve to withdraw and compress, thus tightening the connection. The tubing can be withdrawn only while holding the sleeve against the fitting. The tubing can be removed and replaced numerous times without losing its sealing ability.
Operation & Maintenance Manual Maintenance Compressor Oil Filters The compressor oil filter must be replaced every 500 hours of operation or six (6) months, whichever comes first. To service oil filters it will first be necessary to shut the unit down. Wipe off any external dirt and oil from the exterior of the filter to minimize any contamination from entering the lubrication system.
Maintenance Operation & Maintenance Manual Compressor Oil Cooler The compressor lubricating and cooling oil is cooled by means of the fin and tube type oil cooler, located beside the radiator. The lubricating and cooling oil, flowing internally through the core section, is cooled by the air stream from the cooling fan flowing past the core section.
Operation & Maintenance Manual Maintenance Scavenge Line High Pressure Air can cause severe injury or death from hot oil and flying parts. Always relieve pressure before removing caps, plugs, covers or other parts from pressurized air system. The scavenge line originates at the manifold and terminates at the compressor airend near the oil filter element.

Troubleshooting Operation & Maintenance Manual D. Find And Correct Basic Cause After a mechanical failure has been corrected, be sure to locate and correct the cause of the trouble so the same failure will not be repeated. A complaint of “premature breakdown” may be corrected by repairing any improper wiring connections, but something caused the defective wiring.
