English Lubrication and Oil AIR COMPRESSOR The air compressor pump was filled WITH oil at the manufacturer. Check air compressor pump oil level before operating unit. See Compressor Pump Oil under Maintenance. Compatibility Air tools and accessories that are run off the compressor must be compatible with petroleum based products. If you suspect that a material is not compatible with petroleum products, an air line filter for removal of moisture and oil vapor in compressed air is required. NOTE: Always use an air line filter to remove moisture and oil vapor when spraying paint. Location • Locate the air compressor in a clean, dry, and well ventilated area. • Located the air compressor at least 12" (30.5 cm) away from the wall or other obstructions that will interfere with the flow of air. • Locate the air compressor as close to the main power supply as possible to avoid using long lengths of electrical wiring. NOTE: Long lengths of electrical wiring could cause power loss to the motor. • 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. Wiring Instructions WARNING: Improper electrical installation of this product may void its warranty and your fire insurance. Have circuit wiring performed by qualified personnel such as a licensed electrician who is familiar with the current national electrical code and any prevailing local electrical codes. WARNING: Risk of electrical shock. Improper electrical grounding can result in electrical shock. The wiring should be done by a qualified electrician. A qualified electrician needs to knows the following before wiring: 1. The amperage rating of the electrical box should be adequate. Refer to the Specifications, in the parts manual, for this information. 2. The supply line should have the same electrical characteristics (voltage, cycle, phase) as the motor. Refer to the motor nameplate, on side of motor, for this information. NOTE: The wiring used must be rated for the motor nameplate voltage, plus or minus 10%. Refer to local codes for recommended wire sizes, correct wire size, and maximum wire run; undersize wire causes high amp draw and overheating to the motor. WARNING: Risk of electrical shock. Electrical wiring must be located away from hot surfaces such as manifold assembly, compressor outlet tubes, heads, or cylinders. 12

Lubrication and Oil
AIR COMPRESSOR
The air compressor pump was filled
WITH
oil at the manufacturer.
Check air compressor pump oil level before operating unit. See
Compressor Pump Oil
under
Maintenance
.
Compatibility
Air tools and accessories that are run off the compressor must be
compatible with petroleum based products. If you suspect that a
material is not compatible with petroleum products, an air line filter
for removal of moisture and oil vapor in compressed air is required.
NOTE:
Always use an air line filter to remove moisture and oil vapor
when spraying paint.
Location
•
Locate the air compressor in a clean, dry, and well ventilated
area.
•
Located the air compressor at least 12” (30.5 cm) away from
the wall or other obstructions that will interfere with the flow of
air.
•
Locate the air compressor as close to the main power supply
as possible to avoid using long lengths of electrical wiring.
NOTE: Long lengths of electrical wiring could cause power loss
to the motor.
•
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.
