KNOW YOUR AIR COMPRESSOR

READ THIS OWNER’S MANUAL AND SAFETY RULES BEFORE OPERATING YOUR UNIT. Compare the illustrations with your unit to familiarize yourself with the location of various controls and adjustments. Save this manual for future reference. OPERATION

DESCRIPTION OF OPERATION

Become familiar with these controls before operating the unit. Auto(I)/Off(0) Switch: Turn this switch "Auto (I)" to provide automatic power to the pressure switch and "Off (O)" to remove power at the end of each use. Pressure Switch: The pressure switch automatically starts the motor when the air tank pressure drops below the factory set "cut-in" pressure. It stops the motor when the air tank pressure reaches the factory set "cut-out" pressure. Safety Valve: If the pressure switch does not shut off the air compressor at its "cut-out" pressure setting, the safety valve will protect against high pressure by "popping out" at its factory set pressure (slightly higher than the pressure switch "cut-out" setting). Tank Pressure Gauge: The tank pressure gauge indicates the reserve air pres- sure in the tank. Globe Valve: (sold separately, not shown) Opens and closes air discharge valve. Turn knob counter-clockwise to open and clockwise to close. Regulator (sold separately, not shown): An air pressure regulator or a separate air transformer which combines the functions of air regulation and/or moisture and dirt removal is recommended for most applications. Cooling System (not shown): This compressor contains an advanced design cooling system. At the heart of this cooling system is an engineered fan. It is per- fectly normal for this fan to blow air through the vent holes in large amounts. You know that the cooling system is working when air is being expelled. Air Compressor Pump (not shown):Compressesairintotheairtank.Working air is not available until the compressor has raised the air tank pressure above that required at the air outlet. Drain Valve:The drain valve is located at the base Drain Valve of the air tank and is used to drain condensation at the end of each use.

Before Starting Do not operate this unit until you read and understand this instruction manual for safety, operation and maintenance instructions. Break-in Procedure Risk of Unsafe Operation. Serious damage may result if the following break-in instructions are not closely followed. This procedure is required before the air compressor is put into service and when the check valve or a complete compressor pump has been replaced.

1. Make sure the Auto/Off lever is in the "Off" position.

2. Check oil level in pump. See Oil paragraph in the Maintenance section for

3. Recheck all wiring. Make sure wires are secure at all terminals connections.

Make sure all contacts move freely and are not obstructed.

4. Open the globe valve fully to permit air to escape and prevent air pressure

build up in the air tank during the break-in period.

5. Move the Auto/Off lever to "Auto" position. The compressor will start.

6. Run the compressor for 20 minutes. Make sure the globe valve is open and

there is minimal air pressure build-up in tank.13 - ENG N020206

7. Check all air line fittings and connections/piping for air leaks by applying a

soap solution. Correct if necessary. NOTE: Minor leaks can cause the air compressor to overwork, resulting in premature breakdown or inadequate performance.

8. Check for excessive vibration. Readjust or shim air compressor feet, if neces-

9. After 20 minutes, close the globe valve. The air receiver will fill to "cut-out"

pressure and the motor will stop. The compressor is now ready for use. Before Each Start-Up

Risk of unsafe operation. Unit cycles automatically when power is on. When performing maintenance, you may be exposed to voltage sources, compressed air, or moving parts. Personal injuries can occur. Before performing any maintenance or repair, disconnect power source from the compressor and bleed off all air pressure. To ensure efficient operation and longer life of the air compressor outfit, a routine maintenance schedule should be prepared and followed. The following routine maintenance schedule is geared to an outfit in a normal working environment operating on a daily basis. If necessary, the schedule should be modified to suit the conditions under which your compressor is used. The modifications will depend upon the hours of operation and the working environment. Compressor outfits in an extremely dirty and/or hostile environment will require a greater frequency of all maintenance checks. NOTE: See Operation section for the location of controls.

TO CHECK SAFETY VALVE

Risk of bursting. If the safety valve does not work properly, over-pressurization may occur, causing air tank rupture or an explosion. Risk from flying objects. Always wear certified safety equip- ment: ANSI Z87.1 eye protection (CAN/CSA Z94.3) with side shields.

1. Before starting compressor, pull the ring on the safety valve to make sure

that the safety valve operates freely. If the valve is stuck or does not operate smoothly, it must be replaced with the same type of valve.15 - ENG N020206

Risk of unsafe operation. Air tanks contain high pressure air. Keep face and other body parts away from outlet of drain. Use eye protection [ANSI Z87.1 (CAN/CSA Z94.3)] when draining as debris can be kicked up into face. Risk from noise. Use ear protection (ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) as air flow noise is loud when draining. NOTE: All compressed air systems generate condensate that accumulates in any drain point (e.g., tanks, filter, aftercoolers, dryers). This condensate contains lubricat- ing oil and/or substances which may be regulated and must be disposed of in accor- dance with local, state, and federal laws and regulations.

3. Remove the air tool or accessory.

4. Open the globe valve and allow the air to slowly bleed from the air tank until

tank pressure is approximately 20 psi.

5. Close the globe valve.

6. Drain water from air tank by opening drain valve on bottom of tank.

Risk of bursting. Water will condense in the air tank. If not drained, water will corrode and weaken the air tank causing a risk of air tank rupture. Risk of property damage. Drain water from air tank may con- tain oil and rust which can cause stains.

7. After the water has been drained, close the drain valve. The air compressor

can now be stored. NOTE: If drain valve is plugged, release all air pressure. The valve can then be removed, cleaned, then reinstalled. OIL Use air compressor oil only. Multi-weight automotive engine oils like 10W30 should not be use in air compressors. They leave carbon deposits on critical components, thus reducing performance and compres- sor life. NOTE: Use 30W compressor oil or a heavy duty SAE 30W, nondetergent, SF grade or better oil. DO NOT use multi-weight automotive engine oils, they will reduce compressor life. Under extreme winter condition use SAE-10 weight oil. NOTE: Crankcase oil capacity is approximately 16 fluid ounces (0.47 L). Checking

1. The oil level should be to the middle of

the sight glass (C).

2. If needed remove oil fill plug (A) and

slowly add oil until it reaches the middle of the sight glass. Changing

1. Remove the oil fill plug (A).

2. Remove the oil drain plug (B) and drain

oil into a suitable container.

3. Replace the oil drain plug (B) and tight-

4. Slowly add compressor oil until the oil

level is in the middle of the sightglass (C). NOTE:Whenfillingthecrankcase,theoilflowsveryslowlyintothe pump. If the oil is added too quickly, it will overflow and appear to be full.16 - ENGN020206 Risk of Unsafe Operation. Overfilling with oil will cause premature compressor failure. Do not overfill.

5. Replace oil fill plug (A) and tighten securely.

AIR FILTER - INSPECTION AND REPLACEMENT

Hot surfaces. Risk of burn. Compressor heads are exposed when filter cover is removed. Allow compressor to cool prior to servicing. Keep the air filter clean at all times. Do not operate the air compressor with the air filter removed. A dirty air filter will not allow the compressor pump to operate at full capacity. Before using the compressor pump, check the air filter to make sure it is clean and in place. If it is dirty, replace it with a new filter.

1. Using a pair of needle nose pliers or a screwdriver pull or pry out the old

filter and carefully clean the filter area.

2. Push the new air filter in place.

IMPORTANT: Do not operate the compressor with the air filter removed.

Risk of personal injury. Serious injury or damage may occur if parts of the body or loose items get caught in moving parts. Never operate the outfit with the belt guard removed. The belt guard should be removed only when the air compressor power is disconnected.

1. Turn air compressor off, lock out the power supply, and relieve all air pres-

sure from the air tank.

2. Remove the front of the belt guard by disengaging the snaps. Insert a flat

bladed screwdriver at each snap location and pry the beltguard apart. Belt Guard Wing Nut

3. Loosen the wing nut on hold down plate and tilt motor to allow for easy

removal or installation of the belt.

Risk of moving parts. Use caution when rolling belt onto fly- wheel, fingers can get caught between the belt and flywheel.

5. Replace belt. NOTE: The belt must be centered over the grooves on the

flywheel and motor pulley.

6. Turn the wing nut on the hold down plate until it makes contact with the

washer, plus one additional turn.

7. Replace the belt guard

NOTE: Once the motor pulley has been moved from its factory set location, the grooves of the flywheel and pulley must be aligned to within 1/16" (1.6 mm) to prevent excessive belt wear. The air compressor flywheel and motor pulley must be in-line (in the same plane) within 1/16" (1.6 mm) to assure belt retention within flywheel belt grooves. To check alignment, perform the following steps:

1. Turn air compressor off, lock out the power supply, and relieve all air pressure

2. Remove belt guard.

3. Place a straightedge against the

outside of the flywheel and the motor drive pulley.

4. Measure the distance between the

edge of the belt and the straightedge at points A1 and A2 in figure. The difference between measurements should be no more than 1/16" (1.6 mm).

5. If the difference is greater than 1/16" (1.6 mm) loosen the set screw holding

the motor drive pulley to the shaft and adjust the pulley’s position on the shaft until the A1 and A2 measurements are within 1/16" (1.6 mm) of each other.

6. Tighten the motor drive pulley set screw.

7. Visually inspect the motor drive pulley to verify that it is perpendicular to the

drive motor shaft. Points B1 and B2 of Figure should appear to be equal. If they are not, loosen the setscrew of the motor drive pulley and equalize B1 and B2, using care not to disturb the belt alignment performed in step 2.

8. Retighten the motor drive pulley setscrew. Torque to 70-100 in-lbs

9. Reinstall belt guard.

AIR COMPRESSOR PUMP INTAkE AND ExHAUST VALVES Once a year have a Trained Service Technician check the air compressor pump intake and exhaust valves. INSPECT AIR LINES AND FITTINGS FOR LEAkS

1. Turn air compressor off, lock out the power supply, and relieve all air pressure

2. Apply a soap solution to all air line fittings and connections/piping.

3. Correct any leaks found.

IMPORTANT: Even minor leaks can cause the air compressor to overwork, resulting in premature breakdown or inadequate performance. AIR COMPRESSOR HEAD BOLTS - TORqUING The air compressor pump head bolts should be kept properly torqued. Check the torques of the head bolts after the first five hours of operation. Torque to 28–39 ft.-lbs (38.0-52.9 Nm).18 - ENGN020206
