• The Scroll Pump generates heat during operation. Use caution when servicing to avoid burns.
• Check the manufacturer's maximum pressure rating for air tools and accessories. Compressor outlet pressure must be regulated to
never exceed the maximum pressure rating of the tool. Relieve all pressure through the hose before attaching or removing accessories.
• DO NOT adjust the Pressure Relief Valve for any reason. The Pressure Relief Valve has been pre-set at the factory for the maximum
safe pressure of this unit. Personal injury and/or property damage may result if the relief valve is tampered with.
• Use only hose, pipe and fittings rated for compressed air distribution lines. Do Not use plastic or PVC pipes.
• Drain the moisture from the tank daily. An empty, dry tank will help prevent corrosion and prolong tank life.
• To provide proper ventilation for cooling and prevent overheating, the compressor must be kept a minimum of 3' (31 cm) from the near-
est wall, in a well–ventilated area. DO NOT allow the Cover ventilation holes to be blocked or possible permanent damage could occur.
• REQUIRES 208-240 VAC, 60Hz., 3 phase.
COMPRESSOR SITE LOCATION
• The Eastwood Elite QST-80/120 Scroll Compressor must be located in an indoor area, on a firm, clean, level surface. A solid, level concrete floor is best.

FIRE OR EXPLOSION HAZARD!

Keep compressor a minimum of 20 feet from flammable or explosive vapors and materials.
The Scroll Compressor generates heat during operation and has a highly efficient heat-exchanging and air-cooled system.
Sufficient space must be provided around the unit for cooling air circulation.
• Select an area with adequate ventilation and air circulation. A minimum of 3' [90 cm] of free space must be maintained around all sides and above the
compressor. This is to allow for adequate ventilation and panel removal and to allow room for access for maintenance purposes. Do not store objects
behind, alongside or on top of the compressor.
• Do not place the Scroll Compressor in an area where dust and debris can be drawn into the cooling vents and air intake or severe damage to the unit
can occur.
• The temperature environment for proper operation must be between 32°F and 110°F [0°C and 43°C]. The Compressor is equipped with over temperature
shut off circuitry which may activate in excessive ambient temperature conditions.
• For best performance, humidity levels should be below 75%. For extended operation in higher humidity environments, particular attention should be
devoted to draining tank of moisture.
