HOW TO SET UP YOUR UNiT
Location of the Air Compressor
•
Locate the air compressor
in a
clean, dry, and well ventilated
area.
Located the air compressor at
least 12" (30.5 cm) away from
the wall or other obstructions
that will interfere with the flow
of air.
Locate the air compressor
as
close to the main power supply
as possible to avoid using long
lengths of electrical wiring.
NOTE: Long lengths of electri-
cal wiring could cause power
loss to the motor.
The air filter must be kept clear
of obstructions
which could
reduce air flow to the air com-
pressor.
Anchoring
of the Air Compressor
