Assembling The Compressor - MasterCraft 058-1289-2 Manuel D'installation

ASSEMBLING THE COMPRESSOR

•
Unpack the air compressor. Inspect the unit for damage. If the unit has been
damaged in transit, contact the carrier and complete a damage claim. Do this
immediately because there are time limitations to damage claims.
•
Check the compressor's serial label to ensure that you have received the
model ordered, and that it has the required pressure rating for its intended
use.
•
Locate the compressor according to the following guidelines:
a. Remove the compressor from the carton and place it on the floor or a
hard, level surface.
b. Position the compressor near a grounded electrical outlet
(see GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS, page 12). Avoid using an extension
cord; use a longer hose instead.
c. The compressor must be at least 12" (31 cm) from any wall or
obstruction, in a clean, well-ventilated area, to ensure sufficient air
flow and cooling.
d. In cold climates, store portable compressors in a heated building
when not in use. This will reduce problems with motor starting and
freezing of water condensation.
•
Connect an air hose to the compressor hose outlet. The tank will drop to the
kick-in pressure, the pressure switch will restart the motor automatically,
without warning, and the pump will resume compressing air.
