Contractor Air Compressors
Description
Air compressor units are intended to provide compressed air to power pneumatic tools and operate spray guns. The pumps supplied are oil lubricated. A small amount of oil carryover is present in the compressed air stream. Applications requiring air free of oil or water should have the appropriate coalescing filter installed. The air compressor unit must be placed on a solid floor or solid ground. Any other use of these units will void the warranty and the manufacturer will not be responsible for problems or damages resulting from such misuse.
All models are equipped with cast-iron pumps. Gas engine models are equipped with an air governor for automatic idle down when the tanks reach a preset pressure. Model VT6131 is driven by a dual capacitor, 3450 RPM, 60 Hz, 120/240 dual-voltage motor with manual reset thermal protection. Honda engine models have a low-oil level shutdown.
Compressors include factory-mounted belt guards, ductile iron crankshafts, fly-wheels and ball bearings on crankshaft.

WIRING - MODEL VT6131 ONLY
Local electrical wiring codes differ from area to area. Source wiring, plug and protector must be rated for at least the amperage and voltage indicated on your motor nameplate, and meet all electrical codes for this minimum. Use a slow blow fuse type T or a circuit breaker.
ACAUTION
Overheating, short circuiting and fire
damage will result from inadequate wiring.
NOTE: 120 volt, 15 amp units can be operated on a 120 volt 15 amp circuit under the following conditions:
- No other electrical appliances or lights are connected to the same branch circuit.
- Voltage supply is normal.
- Circuit is equipped with a 15 amp circuit breaker or a 15 amp slow blow fuse type T.
If these conditions cannot be met or if nuisance tripping of the current protection device occurs, it may be necessary to operate the compressor from a 120 volt 20 amp circuit. To convert to 240 volt operation, see DUAL VOLTAGE MOTOR (Model VT6131 only).
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
- This product is for use on a nominal 120 volt circuit and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated in Fig. 2. Make sure the product is connected to an outlet having the same configuration as the plug. This product must be grounded.

Operation
Pressure switch (Electric Models only) - Auto/Off Switch - In the "auto" position, the compressor shuts off automatically when tank pressure reaches the maximum preset pressure. In the "off" position, the compressor will not operate. This switch should be in the "off" position when connecting or disconnecting the power cord from the electrical outlet or when changing air tools.
Regulator - A regulator controls the amount of air pressure released at the hose outlet.
ASME Safety Valve - This valve automatically releases air if the tank pressure exceeds the preset maximum.
Discharge tube - This tube carries compressed air from the pump to the check valve. This tube becomes very hot during use. To avoid the risk of severe burns, never touch the discharge tube.
Check valve - One-way valve that allows air to enter the tank, but prevents air in the tank from flowing back into the compressor pump.
Handle - Designed to move the compressor.
AWARNING
Never use the handle to lift the the ground.
Belt Guard - Covers the belt, motor pulley and flywheel.
Drain Petcock - This valve is located on the bottom of the tank. Use this valve to drain moisture from the tank daily to reduce the risk of corrosion.
Reduce tank pressure below 10 PSI, then drain moisture from tank daily to avoid tank corrosion. Drain moisture from tank(s) by opening the drain petcocks located underneath each tank section.
NOTICE
Before starting the compressor, thor-
oughly read all component instruction manuals, especially the engine manual.
All lubricated compressor pumps discharge some condensed water and oil with the compressed air. Install appropriate water/oil removal equipment and controls as necessary for the intended application.
NOTICE
Failure to install appropriate
water/oil removal equipment may result in damage to machinery or workpiece.
NOTICE
Drain liquid from tank daily.

MOISTURE IN COMPRESSED AIR
Moisture in compressed air will form into droplets as it comes from an air compressor pump. When humidity is high or when a compressor is in continuous use for an extended period of time, this moisture will collect in the tank. When using a paint spray or sandblast gun, this water will be carried from the tank through the hose, and out of the gun as droplets mixed with the spray material.
IMPORTANT: This condensation will cause water spots in a paint job, especially when spraying other than water based paints. If sandblasting, it will cause the sand to cake and clog the gun, rendering it ineffective.
A filter or air dryer in the air line, located as near to the gun as possible, will help eliminate moisture.
ly turns the motor OFF when the tank pressure reaches a preset level. After air is used from the tank and drops to a preset low level, the pressure switch automatically turns the motor back on.
START-UP GASOLINE MODELS
ACAUTION
The gas engine does not contain
oil. Add oil per the engine owner's manual before operating.
- Fill engine with oil and gasoline per instructions furnished with engine.
- Remove the compressor dipstick breather and fill pump to the proper oil level. See Lubrication section.
- Turn outlet valve or regulator knob counterclockwise to open air flow.
- Turn manual unloader lever up to a vertical position to allow the compressor pump to run without compressing air. (See Figure 6.)

When maximum tank pressure is reached, the compressor automatically unloads, bringing the engine to idle. The engine remains at idle until tank pressure falls to a preset level. The engine then accelerates and the compressor pumps additional air into the tank.
Maintenance
AWARNING
Release all pressure from the system before attempting to install, service, relocate or perform any maintenance.

In order to maintain efficient operation of the compressor system, check the air filter, oil level and gasoline level before each use. The ASME safety valve should also be checked daily. Pull ring on safety valve and allow the ring to snap back to normal position. This valve automatically releases air if the tank pressure exceeds the preset maximum. If air leaks after the ring has been released, or the valve is stuck and cannot be actuated by
the ring, the ASME safety valve must be replaced.
