DUTY CYCLE

Air compressors should be operated on not more than a 50% duty cycle. This means an air compressor that pumps air more than 50% of one hour is considered misuse, because

the air compressor is undersized for the required air demand. Maximum compressor pumping time per hour is 30 minutes.

Assemble Wheels

It will be necessary to

brace or support one side of the outfit when installing the wheels because the compressor will have a tendency to tip.

1.Attach wheels with shoulder bolts and nuts as shown. NOTE: Place the bolts in the bottom hole of the wheel bracket on units 20-29 gallons and in the top hole on units 30 gallons and up.

2.Tighten securely. NOTE: The outfit will sit level if the wheels are properly installed.

The wheels and handle do not

provide adequate clearance, stability or support for pulling the unit up and down stairs or steps. The unit must be lifted, or pushed up a ramp.
