Installation
Do not operate
unit if damaged during shipping,
handling or use. Operating unit
if damaged may result in injury.
1. Permanently installed
compressors must be located
in a clean, well ventilated dry
room so compressor receives
adequate supply of fresh,
clean, cool and dry air.
It is recommended that a
compressor used for
painting, be located in a
separate room from that area
wherein body sanding and
painting is done. Abrasive
articles or paint, found to have
clogged the air intake filters
and intake valves, shall
automatically void warranty.
2. Compressors should never
be located so close to a wall or
other obstruction that flow of
air through the fan bladed
flywheel, which cools the
compressor, is impeded.
Permanently mounted units
should have flywheel at least
12" from wall.

3. Place stationary compressors
on firm level ground or
flooring. Permanent
installations require bolting to
floor, and bolt holes in tank or
base feet are provided.
Before bolting or lagging
down, shim compressor level.
Avoid putting a stress on a
tank foot by pulling it tightly
down to floor. This will only
result in abnormal vibration,
and possible cracking of
Air Receiver. Tanks
bolted directly to a concrete
floor without vibro-isolator pads
will not be warranted against
cracking.
Do not install
isolating valves between
compressor outlet and air
receiver. This will cause
excessive pressure if valve is
closed and cause injury and
equipment damage.
