Assembly; Assembling The Compressor - Porter Cable PXCM601 Manual De Instrucciones

The pressure switch (D) shuts down the motor and relieves air pressure in the
pump and outlet tube when the air pressure in the tank reaches the cut-out
pressure. As compressed air is used and the pressure level in the tank drops to
the cut-in pressure, the pressure switch restarts the motor automatically, without
warning and the pump resumes compressing air.
The air outlet (E) is equipped with a 3/4" NPT fitting.

ASSEMBLING THE COMPRESSOR

1. Unpack the air compressor. Inspect the unit for damage. If the unit has been
damaged in transit, contact the carrier and complete a damage claim. Do
this immediately because there are time limitations to damage claims.
The carton should contain:
• air compressor
• operator and parts manuals
2. Check the compressor's serial label to ensure you have received the model
ordered, and that it has the required pressure rating for its intended use.
3. Locate the compressor according to the following guidelines:
a. For optimum performance, locate the compressor close to the power
panel, as specified in ELECTRICAL POWER REQUIREMENTS, and
as close as possible to the place where the air will be used. This
ensures maximum power to the compressor and maximum air pressure
to the tool. If both of these conditions cannot be met, it is better to locate
the compressor close to the power panel, and use a longer air hose to
reach the usage area.
The flywheel side of the compressor must be at least 12 inches
b.
(31 cm) from any wall or obstruction, in a clean, well-ventilated area, to
ensure sufficient air flow and cooling.
c. In cold climates, locate the compressors in a heated building when not
in use. This will reduce problems with lubrication, motor starting and
freezing of water condensation.
d. Remove the compressor from the shipping pallet and place it on the
floor or a hard, level surface. The compressor must be level to ensure
proper lubrication of the pump and drainage of moisture in the tank.
as a base for an operating compressor. Operating the compressor
while it is on the pallet will void your warranty.
e. To prevent damage to tank and pump, the tank must be shimmed so the
pump is level within 1/8" per linear foot maximum to distribute oil
properly. Fasten to floor and NEVER
force tank feet to floor without shims
when tightening. We also recommend
the use of vibration pads (E110586)
under tank feet (F) (See Fig 2).
4. Connect an air hose (not included)
to the compressor. Refer to typical
installation on page 8. (See Fig. 3)
Risk of injury: The shipping pallet is not designed
