INSTALLATION AND BREAK-IN PROCEDURES

Air Filter Installation

To install air filter:

Insert threaded end of the air filter assembly into elbow and tighten until snug.

Do not operate compressor without air filter assembly installed as this will cause damage to the compressor.

Break-In Procedures

Serious damage may result if the fol- lowing break-in instructions are not closely followed.

The Break-In Procedure is required when:

A. New compressor is put into service.

B. Check valve is replaced

C. New pump is installed on tank.

1.Recheck compressor wiring. Make sure wires are secure at all terminal connections. Free all contacts of loose wire cuttings, etc.

2.Open the air outlet valve fully to permit air to escape and prevent air pressure build-up in the tank during the break-inperiod.

3.Position the fuse disconnect or circuit breaker to the ON position and, if equipped, turn the ON/AUTO-OFF switch on the pressure switch to the ON position.

4.Run the compressor for 30 minutes. Make sure the air outlet, or globe valve, is open and there is no tank pressurebuild-up.

5.Check for excessive vibration and noise. Adjust air compressor belt guard as necessary to eliminate chatter. Re-adjust or shim the air compressor feet, if necessary, for proper level.

6.Close the outlet valve and let air compressor pump up to "cut-out pressure". Turn the air compressor off and check oil level. Add oil if necessary. Connect air hose to air outlet adapter.

7.Check all air line fittings and connections/piping for air leaks by applying a soap solution. Correct as neces- sary. Even minor leaks can cause this air compressor to overwork, resulting in premature breakdown or inadequate performance.

Additional Regulators and

Controls

Since the air tank pressure is usually greater than that which is needed, a separate regulator is usually employed to control the air pressure ahead of any individual air driven device.

Separate air transformers that combine the functions of air regulation and moisture and dirt removal should be used where applicable.

Lubrication and Oil

Multi-viscosity motor oils like 10W30, should not be used in an air compressor. They leave carbon deposits on critical compo- nents, thus reducing performance and com- pressor life. Use air compressor oil only. See Maintenance for oil recommendations.

Compressors are shipped without oil. A small amount of oil may be present in the pump upon receipt of the air compressor. This is due to plant testing and does not mean that the pump contains oil. Do not attempt to operate in order to check wiring or for any reason without first adding oil to the crankcase. Serious damage to the pump can result from even very limited use with- out oil. Fill crankcase with recommended oil before operating.

Remove the oil fill plug and fill the crankcase with recom- mended oil. Refer to the Service Instructions in this manual for the specific oil recommended for use in your compres- sor unit. Replace the oil fill plug. Always fill to middle of sight glass.
