Description
Air compressor units are intended to
provide compressed air to power pneu-
matic tools, operate spray guns and sup-
ply air for pneumatic valves and actua-
tors. The pumps supplied with these
units have oil lubricated bearings. A
small amount of oil carryover is present
in the compressed air stream.
Applications requiring air free of oil
vapor should have the appropriate filter
installed. The air compressor units are to
be mounted per the instructions provid-
ed on a solid floor. Any other use of
these units will void the warranty and
the manufacturer will not be responsi-
ble for problems or damages resulting
from such misuse. Refer to the enclosed
"Replacement Parts Manual" to identify
compressor as single stage or two-stage.

This compressor/pump is NOT
equipped and should NOT be used
"as is" to supply breathing quality
air. For any application of air for
human consumption, you must fit
the air compressor/pump with suit-
able in-line safety and alarm equip-
ment. This additional equipment is
necessary to properly filter and puri-
fy the air to meet minimal specifica-
tions for Grade D breathing as
described in Compressed Gas

for the purpose of breathing air
application and proper in-line safety
and alarm equipment is not simulta-
neously used, existing warranties
are void, and Campbell Hausfeld dis-
claims any liability whatsoever for
any loss, personal injury or damage.
7. Before each use, inspect compressed
air system and electrical components
for signs of damage, deterioration,
weakness or leakage. Repair or
replace defective items before using.
8. Check all fasteners at frequent
intervals for proper tightness.
Motors, electrical equip-
ment and controls can
cause electrical arcs that
