Filling the Compressor Pump
with Oil
WARNING:
Drain the tank to release all the tank air
pressure before removing the oil fill cap. Be sure the
air vent in the oil fill cap is free from debris. If the air
vent is blocked, pressure can build in the crankcase,
causing damage to the compressor and possible
personal injury.
CAUTION:
Do not attempt to start the air compressor
without first adding oil to the crankcase. Serious
damage can result unless it is filled with oil. The pump
is shipped without oil from the factory. Only use non-
detergent oils since the multi-viscosity motor oils leave
carbon deposits on pump components, thus reducing
the performance and compressor life.
□
Remove the oil fill cap (1) by turning counter-
clockwise by hand. Fill the compressor pump
with high quality oil, at slow intervals, until the
oil reaches the center of the red circle in the
sight glass (2). Replace the oil fill cap (1) and
hand tighten securely into place.
PLACEMENT OF THE AIR COMPRESSOR
WARNING:
If any parts are damaged or missing do
not operate this product until the parts are replaced.
Failure to heed this warning could result in serious
personal injury.
CAUTION:
Do not use in an environment that is dusty
or otherwise contaminated. Using the air compressor in
this type of environment may cause damage to the unit.
NOTE
:
Long lengths of electrical wiring could cause
power loss to the motor.
□
Place the air compressor in a clean, dry, and well
ventilated area.
□
The air compressor must be positioned at least
18 in. (0.5 m) 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.
□
The air filter must be kept clear of obstructions
which could reduce air flow to the air compressor.
