» Anti-freeze compound used in air line anti-icing systems contains methanol, which is flammable. Use systems and refill with compound only in well-ventilated areas, away from heat, open flames, or sparks. Do not expose any part of these systems or the anti-freeze compound to temperatures above 150°F (65°C). Vapors from the anti-freeze compound are heavier than air. Do not store compound or discharge treated air in confined or unventilated area. Do not store containers or anti-freeze compound in direct sunlight. » Store flammable liquids in suitable containers and cabinets, away from sources of sparks and heat. 1.3.2 BATTERIES AND WIRING WARNING!

Page 14: Receiving
RECEIVING Each compressor is operated and tested at the factory before shipment. This testing assures that the unit is operating properly and that the compressor will deliver its rated capacity. Regardless of the care taken at the factory, there is a possibility that adjustments may be altered or damage may occur during shipment. For this reason it is recommended that the unit be checked for proper operation and carefully inspected before it is put in service. The machine should be observed for any possible malfunction during the first few hours of operation. -
Page 15: Preparing To Tow
PREPARING TO TOW » Properly drain and dispose of any fluids in the containment frame before towing. » Before beginning to tow the compressor, test brake operation, including breakaway switch operation if provided or if equipped. » Damaged or worn towing components can result in separation of the compressor from the towing vehicle during towing. -
Page 16: Parking Or Locating Compressor
» Observe and follow all local, state, and federal traffic laws. Note and adhere to speed limits and minimum highway speed. » Do not exceed maximum towing speeds. Reduce speed accordingly, as dictated by posted signs, weather, road, or terrain conditions. » Remember that portable air compressors may approach or exceed the weight of the towing vehicle. Maintain increased stopping distance accordingly. -

Page 18: General Operating Safety
GENERAL OPERATING SAFETY » Allow at least ten feet of unobstructed area in front of cooling air inlets and outlets to assure good airflow. » If compressor is connected to a common header with one or more compressors, a check valve must be provided between each compressor and header. -
Page 19: Normal Stopping
Run engine at low idle for 2 minutes. Open and close the service valve to reduce pressure to approximately 75 psi or less. Press ignition switch to OFF. SULLIVAN-PALATEK ELECTRONIC CONTROLLER (SPEC) OPERATIONAL INSTRUCTIONS The buttons for operation will be referred to numerically based upon the image at right. - Page 20 USER SETTINGS SCREEN Brightness, contrast, language, units, and time and date can be accessed in this screen. Buttons 1 and 2 cycle between the selections; Button 3 returns back to the Menu screen; Buttons 4 and 5 adjust the setting of the selected item.

DIAGNOSTIC MESSAGE SCREEN This screen will pop up when the machine encounters a Fault/SPN/FMI code. The specific fault will be displayed, as well as an indication if a shutdown will occur. If a diagnostic fault is hidden, a warning icon will be displayed on the Gauge screen. -
Page 22: Jump-Starting Battery
» Install an appropriate flow-limiting valve between the compressor service air outlet and the shut-off (throttle) valve when an air hose exceeding 0.5-inch inside diameter is to be connected to the shut-off (throttle) valve. This is to reduce pressure in case of hose or connection failure, per OSHA Standard 29 CFR 1926.302 (as) (7). » When a hose will be used to supply a manifold, install an appropriate flow-limiting valve between the manifold and each air hose exceeding 0.5-inch inside diameter that is to be connected to the manifold. This will reduce pressure in case of hose failure. - Page 23 Connect the other end of the BLACK (negative) cable to an unpainted metal surface on the compressor engine with the dead battery. Make sure all the jumper cable clips have a good connection (good clamping force) before attempting to start. Start vehicle with the good battery first and let it run a few minutes. Then attempt to start the compressor with the dead battery.

Page 26: Portable Compressor Package
PORTABLE COMPRESSOR PACKAGE The compressor is a single stage, oil-flooded lubricated rotary screw air compressor. The compressor package is available as a portable wheel-mounted unit, utility mounted unit, or galvanized skid-mounted unit for offshore applications. All models are enclosed in a weather-resistant acoustical enclosure. The complete operating unit consists of a gas diesel engine for power, compressor assembly, air/oil separator system, cooling system for the engine and compressor oil, instrumentation, pneumatic control system, and acoustical enclosure. -

The inlet valve assembly is the heart of the control system, which regulates the amount of air entering the compressor. The engine speed is regulated by the Sullivan-Palatek Electronic Controller (SPEC). from full to approximately 60% capacity, the delivery is controlled by engine speed and gradual closing of the inlet valve. -
Page 29: Electrical And Protective Circuit System
Attempts to restart the compressor without repairing the fault sensed by the protection system will be recorded in the engine software and will void the engine manufacturer’s warranty. The Sullivan-Palatek Group warranty DOES NOT COVER the engine. The engine and its components are warranted only by the engine manufacturer. -

The useful life of synthetic lubricants may extend the normally recommended drain and replace period; however, the user is encouraged to closely monitor the lubricant condition and to participate in an oil analysis program with the fluid supplier. When ambient conditions exceed those noted, or if conditions warrant use of “extended life” lubricants, contact Sullivan-Palatek for a recommendation. 5.3.1 CHECK The oil level should be checked daily. -
Page 36: Weather-All ™ Compressor Lubricant
*Service life is only a guideline for typical oil life if temperature is the only variable to be considered. Many variables affect the oil life, i.e. environmental impact from various gases, dust and dirt, compressor short cycling, etc. Sullivan-Palatek recommends oil sampling as the best guide for your fluid change interval. Changing fluid once a year my not be adequate or it can be excessive. For this reason an hourly service on lubricants is merely a guide. Please consult your factory-trained servicing distributor for questions concerning your lubricant life and Sullivan-Palatek’s lubricant sampling program. -
Page 37: Oil Sample For Analysis
OIL SAMPLE FOR ANALYSIS The first oil sample should be drawn after the compressor has run for 500 hours or 3 months. Intervals for following oil samples will be determined by the analysis results. SAMPLE OIL FROM SUMP TANK Run the compressor long enough to reach normal operating temperatures. Turn compressor OFF and allow pressure to blow down to 0 psi. Remove the drain plug from the end of the drain line at the bottom of the sump tank. -
Page 38: Air Intake Filter
AIR INTAKE FILTER Check daily, every 10 hours of operation or on rent return. Replace filter element every 1,000 hours or 6 months. Replace more frequently in dusty conditions. Empty the evacuator valve (dust boot) daily. 5.6.1 REMOVAL AND INSPECTION Unscrew wingnut on air filter cover and remove cover. Unscrew primary air filter element wingnut; pull used element to remove. Remove and inspect the secondary filterby unscrewing wingnut and pulling element. The air filter elements should be thoroughly inspected for holes by placing a lamp inside the element and carefully checking for areas of bright light passing through the element and seal. 5.6.2 INSTALLATION Insert new filter element(s) and tighten wingnut(s). -
Page 39: Air/Oil Separator
5.10 AIR/OIL SEPARATOR Replace the air/oil separator every 1,000 hours, annually, or when differential exceeds 10 psi. The air/oil separator employs a unitized element. The separator element is a single piece unit, which requires replacement when it fails to remove the oil from the discharge air. Prior to replacing the separator element be sure to check the oil return line and orifice for plugging or restrictions. WARNING! The combination of a build-up of dirt and oxidized oil can clog the element causing an increase in air velocity at narrow points on the element media. -
