ASSEMBLY

Tools Required for Assembly

1 - 9/16" socket or open end wrench

1 - electric drill

Unpacking

1.Remove all packaging.

It may be necessary to brace or support one side of the outfit when removing the pallet because the air

compressor will have a tendency to tip.

2.Remove and discard the (4) screws and washers holding the compressor to the pallet.

3.With the help of another person carefully remove air compressor from pallet and place on a level surface.

To Add Oil To Pump

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 the pump

contains oil. Do not attempt to operate this air compressor without first adding oil to the crankcase. Serious damage can result from even limited operation unless filled with oil and broken in correctly. Make sure to closely follow initial start-up procedures.

 

 

 

 

Multi-Viscosity motor oils,

A

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

like 10W 30, should not be

 

 

 

 

used in an air compressor. They leave carbon

 

deposits on critical components, thus reducing

 

performance and compressor life. Use air

 

compressor oil only.

 

NOTE: Use an air compressor oil such as SAE-30 (API CG/CD heavy duty motor oil). Under extreme winter conditions use SAE-20 weight oil.

1.Place unit on a level surface.

2.Remove oil fill plug (A) and slowly add compressor oil until the oil level is in the middle

of the sightglass (B). NOTE: When filling the crankcase, the oil flows very slowly into the

pump. If the oil is added too quickly, it willB overflow and appear to be full. NOTE:

Crankcase oil capacity is approximately 40 fluid ounces.

3.Replace oil fill plug.
