Description
These air compressor units are intended
to provide compressed air to power
pneumatic tools, operate spray guns
and supply air for pneumatic valves and
actuators. The pumps supplied with
these units have oil lubricated bearings.
A small amount of oil carryover is pre-
sent in the compressed air stream.
Applications requiring air free of oil
vapor and aerosols should have the
appropriate filter installed. The air
compressor units are to be mounted
per the instructions provided on a solid
floor. Any other use of these units will
void the warranty and the manufactur-
er will not be responsible for problems
or damages resulting from such misuse.
