OVERVIEW \ VUE D’ENSEMBLE \ RESUMEN GENERAL BASIC AIR COMPRESSOR COMPONENTS The basic components of the air compressor are the gasoline engine, pump, tank(s) and unloader. The gasoline engine (see A) powers the pump. The engine drives a pulley and belt, which transfers power from the engine to the pump pistons via a flywheel and a crankshaft. The flywheel fan helps cool the pump. The pump (see B) compresses the air and discharges it into the tank.
INSTALLATION / INSTALLATION / INSTALACION 1. 2. 3. recommandations suivantes: INSTALLING THE COMPRESSOR Unpack the air compressor. Inspect the unit for damage. If the unit has been damaged in transit, contact Customer Service. Do this immediately, because there are time limitations to damage claims. The unit should include: • The air compressor • Vibration pads (qty 4) • The operator and parts manual • The engine manual AVERTISSEMENT: Utilisez toujours le compresseur dans une zone bien aérée. a. b.
INSTALACION INSTALACION DEL COMPRESOR 1. Desembale el compresor de aire. Inspeccione la unidad por daños. Si la unidad ha sido dañada, comunîquese con el Centro de Servicio. Haga esto de inmediato, ya que el plazo permitido para presentar reclamaciones por daños está limitado. La unidad debe incluir: • compresor de aire • calzos antivibratorios (cant 4) • manual del operador y manual de piezas • manual del motor 2.
ASSEMBLY / ASSEMBLAGE / MONTAJE 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. CONNECTING A BATTERY Battery: A 12 volt sealed battery with a minimum amperehour rating of 18 Ah is required (battery not included). Battery cables: Select battery cables to avoid greater than .05 volt drop in the cable during starter motor operation. Battery Cable size and length: (Gauge x length) Positive Cable: AWG No. 4 x 1.5 m (5.0 ft) maximum. Negative Cable: AWG No. 4 x 2.3 m (7.5 ft) maximum. Wiring Precautions: A.
ASSEMBLY / ASSEMBLAGE / MONTAJE yeux et est reconnu comme toxique. AVERTISSEMENT: Une batterie présente un risque de choc électrique et un très fort courant en court-circuit. Observer les précautions suivantes lors des travaux sur la batterie : • Enlever les montres, les bagues et tout autre objet métallique. • Utiliser des outils à manche isolé. • Porter des gants de caoutchouc. • Ne pas déposer d'outils ou de pièces métalliques sur le dessus de la batterie.
TYPICAL INSTALLATION / INSTALLATION TYPIQUE / INSTALACION TIPICA A B C D E F G H J K L M N P R T U WARNING: Risk of bursting, resulting in injury. Never use Plastic pipe for compressed air. CAUTION: Never use lubricator for paint spraying or similar applications. ADVERTISSEMENT: Risque d’éclatement pouvant entraîner des blessures. N’utilisez jamais de tuyau en plastique pour de l’air comprimé.
TYPICAL INSTALLATION / INSTALLATION TYPIQUE / INSTALACION TIPICA INSTALLATION Air dryers and after coolers An air dryer or aftercooler is installed directly in the air line. Moisture removal and air filtration As the air cools, moisture will condense in the lines. This moisture must be removed before it reaches the tool being used. To remove this moisture, run the main air line downhill to a moisture trap and drain. Air/water filters should also be installed in the positions shown.
COMPRESSOR CONTROLS / COMMANDES DU COMPRESSEUR / CONTROLES DEL COMPRESOR COMPRESSOR CONTROLS Tank Pressure Relief Valve (see A) If the unloader valve (see C) does not open when pressure reaches the preset level, this valve will pop open automatically to prevent overpressurization. To operate manually, pull the ring on the valve to relieve air pressure in the tank. Tank Pressure Gauge (see B) This gauge measures the pressure level of the air stored in the tank.
BREAK-IN OF THE PUMP \ RODAGE DE LA POMPE \ MARCHA DE LA BOMBA BREAK-IN OF THE PUMP NOTE: When references are made to gasoline engine operations, refer to the engine manual for proper procedure. 1. Before starting the compressor for the first time, ensure proper oil level in the gasoline engine crankcase. 2. 3. 4. 5. WARNING: Risk of carbon monoxide poisoning. Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide, an odorless and deadly poison. DO NOT operate in an enclosed area.
RODAGE DE LA POMPE \ MARCHA DE LA BOMBA RODAGE DE LA POMPE 6. 7. Mettez en marche le moteur à essence conformément aux instructions contenues dans le livret du moteur. Déplacez le levier de déchargeur à la position (horizontale) de passage (voyez C). Faites fonctionner le compresseur pendant environ 30 minutes pour le roder et pour s’assurer que les pièces internes sont lubrifiées. Arrêtez le moteur à essence. Fermez le robinet de purge (voyez E).
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS \ MODE D’EMPLOI 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. DAILY STARTUP Check the oil level in the gasoline engine crankcase. Add oil as necessary. See instructions in the engine manual. Check the level of oil in the pump with the sight glass. The pump oil level must be between A and B. Do not overfill or underfill. Fill the tank of the gasoline engine with unleaded gasoline. Move the unloader lever to the start (vertical) position (see D). Close the tank petcock (see E).
MODE D’EMPLOI \ INSTRUCCIONES OPERATIVAS MISE EN MARCHE QUOTIDIENNE AVERTISSEMENT: La pompe et le moteur à essence génèrent des températures élevées. Pour éviter les brûlures ou d’autres blessures, NE touchez PAS le compresseur quand il est en marche. Laissez-le refroidir avant de le manipuler ou d’effectuer son entretien. Ne laissez jamais les enfants s’approcher du compresseur.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS \ MODE D’EMPLOI \ INSTRUCCIONES OPERATIVAS 1. 2. SHUTDOWN Shut off the gasoline engine. Reduce pressure in the tank through the outlet hose. You can also pull the relief valve ring (see G) and keep it open to relieve pressure in the tank. G CAUTION: Escaping air and moisture can propel debris that may cause eye injury. Wear safety goggles when opening petcock. 3.
PUMP LUBRICATION / LUBRIFICATION DE LA POMPE / LUBRICACION DE LA BOMBA OIL LEVEL Always operate the unit in a level position. Prior to start–up, check the sight glass to ensure that the oil in the pump is at the required level. The oil level should reach 1/8” above the red line on the sight glass. If the oil level is too low, remove the oil fill plug and add oil until the sight glass shows the correct level. Do not overfill or underfill; too much or too little oil will harm the pump.
MAINTENANCE \ ENTRETIEN \ MANTENIMIENTO MAINTENANCE D WARNING: To avoid personal injury, always shut off the gasoline engine and relieve all air pressure from the system before performing any service on the air compressor. Regular maintenance will ensure trouble–free operation. Your gas powered air compressor represents high–quality engineering and construction; however, even high–quality machinery requires periodic maintenance.
MAINTENANCE \ ENTRETIEN \ MANTENIMIENTO BELT TENSION AND PULLEY ALIGNMENT WARNING: To avoid personal injury, always shut off the gasoline engine and relieve all air pressure from the system before performing any service on the air compressor. NOTE: Drive belt tensioning and pulley alignment are done at the same time. They are discussed separately for clarity. ADJUSTING DRIVE BELT TENSION Proper belt tension and pulley alignment must be maintained for maximum drive efficiency and belt life.
MAINTENANCE \ ENTRETIEN \ MANTENIMIENTO PULLEY ALIGNMENT To check pulley alignment, remove the belt guard and place a straightedge (see A) against the pump flywheel (see B). Measure and record the distance from the straightedge to the edge of the drive belt at point C. Then measure the distance from the straightedge to the edge of the drive belt again at points D and E. Both distances should be the same as at point C.
MAINTENANCE \ ENTRETIEN \ MANTENIMIENTO CLEANING THE AIR FILTER A dirty air filter will reduce the compressor’s performance and life. To avoid any internal contamination of the pump, the filter should be cleaned frequently, and replaced on a regular basis. Felt filters should be cleaned in warm, soapy water, rinsed, and allowed to air dry before reinstallation. Paper filters should be replaced when dirty. Do not allow the filter to become filled with dirt or paint.
