INSTALLATION

HOW TO SET UP YOUR UNIT

Location of the Air Compressor

Locate the air compressor in a clean, dry, and well ventilated area.

Place on a solid surface to prevent rocking or tipping.

The air compressor should be located at least 12" away from the wall or other obstructions that will interfere with the flow of air.

The air filter must be kept clear of obstructions which could reduce air flow to the air compressor.

The air compressor requires fresh air flow for proper cooling. DO NOT ALLOW THE

COMPRESSOR TO GET WET.
