1.
Unpack the air compressor. Inspect the unit for damage. If
the unit has been damaged in transit, contact the carrier
and complete a damage claim. Do this immediately
because there are time limitations to damage claims.
2.
Check the compressor’s serial label to ensure that you
have received the model ordered, and that it has the
required pressure rating for its intended use.
3.
Locate the compressor according to the following
guidelines:
a.
Position the compressor near a grounded electrical
outlet (see GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS, page 9).
Avoid using an extension cord
; use a longer hose
instead.
b.
The compressor must be at least 12 inches (31 cm)
from any wall or obstruction, in a clean, well-ventilated
area, to ensure sufficient air flow and cooling.
c.
In cold climates, store portable compressors in a
heated building when not in use. This will reduce
problems with motor starting and freezing of water
condensation.
d.
Remove the compressor from the carton and place it
on the floor or a hard, level surface.
4.
Connect an air hose to the compressor hose outlet (
A
).
