Engine Break-In; Low Oil Shutdown - Speedaire SDR8CG00 Manuel D'utilisation Et De Pièces

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS (CONTINUED)
Starting
1. Connect the unit to a suitable ground source (see Grounding section).
2. Remove all electrical loads from the unit.
3. Set the unloader valve to the UNLOADED position (the arrow on the unit decal is pointing towards the
unloader valve's location).
4. Move fuel shut-off lever as far as possible to the right to enable fuel flow.
5. For a cool engine, slide the choke lever to the left.
6. Set the engine run switch to the RUN position (up).
7. Push and hold the ENGINE START switch until the engine starts, then release.
8. As the engine warms up and stabilizes, slide the choke lever back to the right.
9. Set the unloader valve to the LOADED position so that the unit will begin to build pressure.
IMPORTANT: After each start up, allow the engine to run for 2 to 3 minutes with no load. Always refer to this
Owner's manual for operation instructions.

Engine Break-In

After initial start-up, the engine should be broken in according to the manufacturer's instructions. Refer to the
engine manual for the proper break-in procedure.
Compressor Break-In
Open the drain valve located underneath the front tank. Allow the pump to run without a load for 30 minutes. After
30 minutes, close the drain valve and pressure will begin to build in the tanks.
Shut-Off
1. Shut off and remove all electrical load devices from the unit
2. Allow the engine to run for 2-3 minutes with no electrical loads.
3. Set the engine run switch to the OFF position (down).
4. Verify that the unit has completely stopped.
5. Close the fuel supply valve.
6. Allow the unit to cool before installing any covers or storing unit.

Low Oil Shutdown

A low oil shutdown switch is provided to protect the engine. When engine oil level drops too low for proper engine
operation, the low oil shutdown switch causes the engine to shut off. If oil level is low when attempting to start
the engine, the low oil level shutdown switch prevents the engine from starting. If engine does not start, check oil
level.
NOTE: It is important to keep the unit on a level surface. The oil level shutdown switch can prevent the engine
from starting even if oil level is sufficient, when the unit is placed on an uneven surface.

Engine speed is preset to provide proper output voltage. Never attempt to modify
or adjust engine speed or output voltage.
