• The air filter must be kept clear of obstructions which could
reduce air flow to the air compressor.

HUMID AREAS

In frequently humid areas, moisture may form in the pump and
produce sludge in the oil, 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 pump when it cools down and a "milky"
appearance in compressor oil. You may be able to prevent
moisture from forming in the 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 silencers, relocate the unit or construct total
enclosures or baffle walls. Contact a D
call 1-888-895-4549 for assistance.
Anchoring of the Air Compressor
WARNING: Risk of bursting. Excessive vibration can weaken the
air tank and cause an explosion. The compressor must be properly
mounted.
The air compressor MUST be bolted to a level, solid concrete
surface. Use 3/8" lag screws, vibration pads and concrete
anchors. If help is needed anchoring the air compressor consult
a licensed contractor.
1. Place the air compressor on a level, solid concrete surface.
Make sure the concrete is in good condition with no cracks
or damage.
