Dewalt DXCMLA4708065 Instruction Manual - Page 12

English • The air filter must be kept clear of obstructions which could reduce air flow to the air compressor. HUMID AREAS In frequently humid areas, moisture may form in the pump and produce sludge in the oil, causing running parts to wear out prematurely. Excessive moisture is especially likely to occur if the unit is located in an unheated area that is subject to large temperature changes. Two signs of excessive humidity are external condensation on the pump when it cools down and a "milky" appearance in compressor oil. You may be able to prevent moisture from forming in the pump by increasing ventilation or operating for longer intervals. NOISE CONSIDERATIONS Consult local officials for information regarding acceptable noise levels in your area. To reduce excessive noise, use vibration mounts or silencers, relocate the unit or construct total enclosures or baffle walls. Contact a DeWALT service center or call 1-888-895-4549 for assistance. Anchoring of the Air Compressor WARNING: Risk of bursting. Excessive vibration can weaken the air tank and cause an explosion. The compressor must be properly mounted. The air compressor MUST be bolted to a level, solid concrete surface. Use 3/8" lag screws, vibration pads and concrete anchors. If help is needed anchoring the air compressor consult a licensed contractor. 1. Place the air compressor on a level, solid concrete surface. Make sure the concrete is in good condition with no cracks or damage. 2. Mark the surface using the holes in Vibration the air compressor pad feet as a template. (not 3. Drill holes in the supplied) surface for the concrete anchors. Install concrete anchors. Shim Under 4. Line-up holes in Vibration pad (not supplied) surface with holes in air compressor feet. 3/8" Lag Screw (not supplied) Surface Line Concrete Anchor (not supplied) 5. Place the vibration pads (not supplied) between the floor and air compressor feet, see figure. If needed use shims to level the unit. 6. Place the 3/8" lag screws through the air compressor feet, vibration pads and into the anchors. 7. Torque 3/8" lag screws to 7-10 ft.-lbs (9.5-13.5 Nm).
