PREPARING FOR USE

Before using your Grizzly Air Compressor, follow these steps:

1.Remove all packing materials and any protective plastic bags, zip-tie labels or tags from the compressor cylinder head or oil plug.

2.Be sure the air filter is attached to the cylinder head.

3.ADD OIL TO THE CRANKCASE. Oil has NOT been supplied with your air compressor. The oil level should be in the center of the sight gauge shown in Figure 2. Use compressor oil or non- detergent 30 WT oil.

Figure 2. Proper oil level.

4.Make sure the drain valve under the air tank is closed.

NOTICE

The machine should never be run without a full oil reservoir. The oil provides lubrication to the cylinder rings which deliver the compressed air. Severe damage to the internal moving parts can occur if there is not adequate oil flow. Check the oil level frequently, and change the oil on a regular schedule.

Duty Cycle

The Model H4519 3 HP Air Compressor should not be operated on more than a 50% duty cycle. This means an air com- pressor that pumps air for over 30 minutes in one hour is considered misuse. This could mean that the air compressor is undersized for the required air demand. The maximum compressor pump time per hour is 30 minutes.

Always be aware of the duty cycle for your air compressor. Failure to oper- ate the air compressor properly could result in overheating and motor seizure. There could also be risk of fire hazard due to overheat- ing. Be sure to use a compressor capable of handling the air demand.
