DANGER
INTAKE AIR . Can contain carbon monoxide or other
contaminants . Will cause serious injury or death .
lngersoll Rand air compressors are not designed,
intended or approved for breathing air . Compressed air
should not be used for breathing air applications unless
treated in accordance with all applicable codes and
regulations .
Your air compressor unit is suitable for operating air tools,
caulking guns, grease guns, sandblasters, etc. Depending on
your application, the following accessories may be required:
• An air pressure regulator to adjust the air pressure
entering the tool or accessory.
•
An air line filter for removal of moisture and oil vapor in
compressed air.

TRANSPORTING THE UNIT


CAUTION
The wheels and handle do not provide adequate clearance,
stability or support for pulling the unit up and down stairs
or steps. The unit must be lifted or pushed up a ramp. Do
not use the handle to lift the unit.

SELECTING A LOCATION


GENERAL Select a clean, dry, well-lighted area with plenty of
space for proper cooling air flow and accessibility. Locate the
unit on a solid level surface at least 12 inches (30 cm) from
walls. Ensure unit is as level as possible.
TEMPERATURE Ideal operating temperatures are between
32° F and 100° F (0° C and 37.8° C). In lower temperatures,
you must protect safety/relief valves and drain valves from
freezing.

GENERAL INFORMATION

Contact your nearest authorized dealer or call 1-800-AIR-
SERV for more information on air tools and accessories for
your application.

PREPARATION FOR USE

Never operate in temperatures below 20°F {-6.6°C) or above
125°F (51.0"C).
HUMID AREAS In frequently humid areas, moisture may
form in the bare pump and produce sludge in the lubricant,
causing running parts to wear out prematurely. Excessive
moisture is especially likely to occur if the unit is located in an
unheated area that is subject to large temperature changes.
Two signs of excessive humidity are external condensation
on the bare pump when it cools down and a "milky"
appearance in petroleum compressor lubricant. You may be
able to prevent moisture from forming in the bare pump by
increasing ventilation or operating for longer intervals.
NOISE CONSIDERATIONS Consult local officials for
information regarding acceptable noise levels in your area.
To reduce excessive noise, use vibration mounts or intake
silencers, relocate the unit or construct total enclosures or
baffle walls. Contact your dealer for assistance.
WARNING
CAUTION
•
An in-line lubricator to prolong the life of air tools.
• Separate air transformers which combine the functions
of air regulation and/or moisture and dirt removal.
