CAUTION
Operating in reverse, even
for a short period, can cause
severe damage to the machine
NOTE
Only the longer capscrews
supplied with the brackets
must be used for securing the
brackets to the machine.
All fasteners should be
tightened to 35 Nm.

Installation
3.1
General
For the recommended layout of the machine and ancillaries, see figure 1.
When selecting the machine mounting position, the following points should
be considered:
• Direction of input rotation to the machine must be correct and is simple to
change by swapping over the plastic cowls (see section 3.5 for how to
change the machine input rotation) and driving the shaft at the other end
of the machine.
• Install away from sources of heat, e.g. vehicle exhaust air or hot pipes that
could effect the compressor temperature in any way.
• Venting relief/control valve air must be unobstructed and direct to the
atmosphere.
• Separately mounted relief valves should be fitted as close as possible to
the GD150 discharge port and before any other discharge ancillary.
• Any valves should be positioned to avoid hot air venting onto the
operator.
• A cooling fan is fitted at each end of the machine and the cooling air path
into the fan must not be obstructed.
• A space of at least 25mm must be allowed around the machine for air
circulation. If mounting to a solid plate, the machine should be mounted at
least 25mm from the plate or a cooling hole should be cut into the plate.
• Any flexible coupling assembly used with the machine (e.g. on hydraulic
drives) must incorporate shaft end clearance (at least 1mm) to avoid
interference through temperature expansion during operation.

Mounting
Each mounting foot is attached to the machine using two long capscrews
(Fig 3, Item 2) and washers (Fig 3, Item 3) with the spacing bushes
(Fig. 3, Item 4) fitted between the brackets (Fig 3, Item 1) and the cowls.
12mm diameter holes are provided in the bottom of feet to allow 10mm
studs, screws and nuts (all grade 8.8 or higher) to be used for securing the
machine.
The feet should be fixed to a flat surface to avoid inducing unnecessary
stresses into the machine and mounting feet. This can be achieved using
shimming if necessary.
No.
