Checking the Oil

3.Verify that the Pump Pulley turns freely where it overhangs the mounting surface.

4.Place a V-groove belt (not included) over the Pump Pulley (59) and the motor pulley.

5.Pull the Compressor Pump until properly aligned, and the belt is tight. Recheck the motor pulley, V-groove belt, and Pump Pulley alignment.

6.Use a pencil to mark through the Air Compressor Pump mounting holes onto the mounting surface.

7.Move Air Compressor Pump and drill four 5/16” holes in the mounting surface.

8.Move the Air Compressor Pump back to its mounting position.

9.Secure each corner of base with a 5/16” diameter grade 5 or better bolt, washer, lock washer, and nut (all not supplied).

10.Make final alignment and adjust belt tension with the motor. It may be necessary to loosen the motor mounting bolts to adjust the motor location. To test the proper tension on the V-belts, press down on the belts, there should be 1/2” deflection or less at mid span. Tighten all mounting hardware.

11.Connect plumbing hardware (not supplied) from the 3/4” Air Outlet (Elbow (15)) to the air destination (i.e., air pressure tank of the compressor, not supplied), routing the tubing in the shortest possible path.

12.Install a safety guard (not supplied) that surrounds the Motor Pulley, V-belts, and Pump Pulley. This safety guard must cover all sides of the moving belts and pulleys. It should have a clearance of about one inch from the moving parts.

The safety guard must be sturdy enough to prevent injury.

WARNING! Avoid serious injuries. Do not operate this Air Compressor Pump without a pulley guard in place.

Check the oil level before operation. Fill the Pump Crankcase with SAE 30W non-detergent air compressor oil (sold separately).

IMPORTANT: Running the Air Compressor Pump with the incorrect amount of oil will cause damage to the equipment and void the warranty. To prevent damage, do not use with overfilled or low oil. Slowly fill to full line, wait

2 minutes and fill back up to full line. The Compressor Pump has small passages that will fill slowly.

Figure 4

The oil level should be at the center of the “full” level on the oil level sight glass, as shown above. Add oil as needed to maintain this level. Do not let the oil level go below the center dot (LOW as shown above) and do not overfill the oil so that it is above the center dot (OVERFILL as shown above) on the sight glass.

To add oil:

a. Remove the Oil Fill Plug (63).
