STORAGE AND TRANSPORTING
Risk of property damage. In order to avoid damaging the air compressor, do not allow the unit to be tilted more than 10º when operating.
Place the air compressor in a clean, dry and well ventilated area at least 12" (30.5 cm) away from the wall or other obstructions that will interfere with the flow of air. Keep the compressor away from areas that have dirt and/or volatile fumes in the atmosphere. These impurities may clog the intake filter and valves, causing inefficient operation.
The air compressor pump and shroud are designed to allow for proper cooling. The ventilation openings on the compressor are necessary to maintain proper operating temperature. Do not place rags or other containers on or near these openings.
Place the air compressor on a flat surface resting on the rubber feet.
Transporting
When transporting the compressor in a vehicle, trailer, etc., ensure that the tank is drained and the unit is secured and placed on a flat horizontal surface. NOTE: Use recommended tie down straps when transporting. Use care when driving so to avoid tipping the unit over in the vehicle.Damage can occur to the unit or surrounding items if unit is tipped.
Lifting
Always use two people when lifting and lift from the recommended lift points
(M & V). |

1.Grasp Handle (M) and tilt compressor so unit can be rolled on the tires.
Risk of unsafe operation. Ensure proper
footing and use caution when rolling compressor so that unit does not tip or cause loss of balance.
2.When location is reached slowly lower compressor to ground. Always store compressor in a horizontal position. NOTE: Should the unit tip over, hard starting and smoking will occur due to oil spillage.
Maintenance
The following procedures must be followed when maintenance or service is performed on the air compressor.
1.Ensure On/Off switch is in the OFF position.
2.Remove air compressor plug from outlet.
3.Drain air tank.
4.Allow air compressor to cool down before starting service.
NOTE: All compressed air systems contain maintenance parts (e.g., oil, filters, separators) that are periodically replaced. These used parts may contain substances that are regulated and must be disposed of in accordance with local, state, and federal laws and regulations.
NOTE: Take note of the positions and locations of parts during disassembly to make reassembly
