SET-UP
WARNING! Do not use lead-tin solder to join pipes and fittings. It can melt
at the temperatures of the compressor's air discharge and cause the piping to
!
burst.
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
z Check the specification label and be sure the compressor's voltage and ampe-
rage requirements match the electrical supply capabilities.
z Plug your compressor into an electrical outlet on dedicated 15 amp household
circuit. The closer the outlet is to the circuit panel, the more reliable the com-
pressor starting and performance will be. Other devices running on the same
circuit may cause starting problems.
z Ideally, the electrical supply circuit should be protected by a circuit breaker
rather than a fuse. If a fuse is necessary, a dual element time delay fuse should
be used.
EXTENSION CORDS
If you plan to use an extension cord when operating your air compressor, please
note:
z Maximum length: not to exceed 50 ft. (15 m)
z Minimum wire size: 14 gauge.
z If the extension cord is too long or the wire size is too small, the air compressor
will not start.
COMPRESSOR LUBRICATION
1. CHECK THE OIL quantity and quality every time before operating the
compressor. Do not add or change oil while the compressor is in operation.
Use only oil with the correct specifications
2. With the air compressor on level surface, the oil level should be at the red dot
on the oil level sight glass (N, fig.1 & 5).
3. If oil level is low, remove oil fill plug, add enough oil to bring level to the red dot.
Do not over-fill.
4. Replace oil fill plug before starting compressor.
DRAINING THE OIL
1. Remove the crankcase oil drain plug (O, fig.1 & 5)). Allow oil to drain
completely.
2. Replace the oil drain plug (we recommend the use of a sealing compound or
teflon tape to avoid leakage). Do not over-tighten.
3. Refill with the recommended oil to the red dot in the oil level sight glass (N,
fig.1 & 5).
