pressure rating for its intended use.
3. Attach vibration pads to compressor as shown in Fig. 1a.
INSTALLING HOSES
WARNING: Risk of unsafe operation. Firmly grasp hose in hand
when installing or disconnecting to prevent hose whip.
1. Ensure regulated pressure gauge reads 0 psi.
2. Apply sealant tape to hose threads.
3. Assemble hose to air outlet (G).
NOTICE: Do not assemble splitters directly to the air
outlet (G).
NOTE: Assembling quick connect bodies to air outlet (G) and quick
connect plugs to hose ends make connecting and disconnecting
hoses simple and easy. Quick connect bodies and plugs are
available for purchase from your local dealer or authorized service
center.
DISCONNECTING HOSES
WARNING: Risk of unsafe operation. Firmly grasp hose in hand
when installing or disconnecting to prevent hose whip.
1. Ensure regulated pressure gauge reads 0 psi.
2. Remove hose(s) from air outlet(s) (G).
Lubrication and Oil
ENGINE
1. The engine was filled WITH oil at the manufacturer. Check
engine oil level before operating unit. If necessary, fill engine
to the appropriate level with recommended oil, see engine's
instruction manual supplied by engine manufacturer for correct
procedure.
2. Add fuel to engine. See engine's instruction manual supplied by
engine manufacturer for correct procedure.
WARNING: Risk of explosion or fire. Gasoline vapor is highly
flammable. Refuel outdoors preferably, or only in well-ventilated
areas. Do not refuel or check gasoline level while the engine is
running. Do not store, spill, or use gasoline near an open flame,
a source of sparks (such as welding), or near operating electrical
equipment.
AIR COMPRESSOR
The air compressor pump was filled WITH oil at the manufacturer.
Check air compressor pump oil level before operating unit. See
Compressor Pump Oil under Maintenance.
Compatibility
Air tools and accessories that are run off the compressor must be
compatible with petroleum based products. If you suspect that a
material is not compatible with petroleum products, an air line filter
for removal of moisture and oil vapor in compressed air is required.
NOTICE: Always use an air line filter to remove moisture and oil
vapor when spraying paint.
Location
DANGER: Risk of breathing. Exhaust from the gasoline engine
contains deadly carbon monoxide, which is odorless and toxic.
Operate engine only in well ventilated areas.
NOTICE: Risk of property damage. In order to avoid damaging
the air compressor, do not allow the unit to be tilted more than
10º when operating.
Place air compressor at least 4 feet (1.2 m) away from obstacles
that may prevent proper ventilation. Keep unit away from areas
that have dirt, vapor and volatile fumes in the atmosphere which
may clog and gum up the intake filter and valves, causing inefficient
operation.
