Placement Of The Air Compressor; Installing The Air Intake Filter - Industrial Air Contractor C0321 Manual Del Operador

Pre-Operation (continued)

PLACEMENT OF THE AIR COMPRESSOR

WARNING: If any parts are damaged or missing do
not operate this product until the parts are replaced.
Failure to heed this warning could result in serious
personal injury.
CAUTION: Do not use in an environment that is dusty
or otherwise contaminated. Using the air compressor in
this type of environment may cause damage to the unit.
NOTE: Long lengths of electrical wiring could cause power
loss to the motor.
□
Place the air compressor in a clean, dry, and well
ventilated area.
□
The air compressor must be positioned at least 18
in. (0.5 m) away from the wall or other obstructions
that will interfere with the flow of air.
□
Locate the air compressor as close to the main
power supply as possible to avoid using long
lengths of electrical wiring.
□
The air filter must be kept clear of obstructions
which could reduce air flow to the air compressor.

INSTALLING THE AIR INTAKE FILTER

CAUTION: Do not attempt to start the air compressor
without first installing air intake filter and the fill cap/
breather. The pump is shipped with oil from the factory,
but pump can build internal pressure and blow off cap,
if breather is not installed. Only use non-detergent
oils when refilling, because the multi-viscosity motor
oils leave carbon deposits on pump components, thus
reducing the performance and compressor life.
□
Remove the plastic plug (1) from the compressor
head (2). Remove the air intake filter (3) from the
poly bag and thread it into the compressor head (2),
as shown.
