SECTION 1: SAFETY For Your Own Safety Read Instruction Manual Before Operating This Equipment The purpose of safety symbols is to attract your attention to possible hazardous conditions. This manual uses a series of symbols and signal words which are intended to convey the level of importance of the safety messages. The progression of symbols is described below. Remember that safety messages by themselves do not eliminate danger and are not a substitute for proper accident prevention measures.
PAGE 7
. KEEP CHILDREN AND VISITORS AWAY. Keep all children and visitors a safe distance from the work area. 8. MAKE WORKSHOP CHILD PROOF. Use padlocks, master switches, and remove start switch keys. Shut off air supply before leaving shop. 9. NEVER LEAVE UNATTENDED TOOL CONNECTED TO AIR. DO NOT leave before relieving the tool of air pressure and disconnecting it from the air hose. 10. DO NOT USE IN DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENTS. DO NOT use in damp, wet locations, or where flammable or noxious fumes may exist. 11.

Additional Safety Instructions for Air Compressors 1. AIR NOZZLE. Never aim an air nozzle directly at yourself or others. Compressed air can break the skin, or enter the bloodstream through soft tissue or a cut, and cause a stroke or death. 2. AIR COMPRESSOR STORAGE. DO NOT store the compressor while plugged into power. If a leak develops, the compressor may run continuously, causing overheating and possibly a fire. 3. UNATTENDED TOOLS.

SECTION 2: CIRCUIT REQUIREMENTS 110V Operation Plug/Receptacle Type Plug Type ..............NEMA 5-15 (Figure 1) Serious personal injury could occur if you connect the machine to the power source before you have completed the set up process. DO NOT connect the machine to the power source until instructed to do so. Amperage Draw The motors on the air compressors will draw the following amps: Figure 1.

Grounding Extension Cords In the event of an electrical short, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock. The grounding wire in the power cord must be properly connected to the grounding prong on the plug; likewise, the outlet must be properly installed and grounded. All electrical connections must be made in accordance with local codes and ordinances. The use of extension cords can cause power loss and overheating in air compressors.
PAGE 11
SECTION 3: SET UP Unpacking Your air compressor left our warehouse in a carefully packed crate or box. If you discover the air compressor is damaged after you have signed for delivery, please immediately call Customer Service at (570) 5469663 for advice. Save the container and packing materials for possible inspection by the carrier or its agent. Otherwise, filing a freight claim can be difficult. Assembly To assemble the air compressor: NOTICE Never run this compressor without a full oil reservoir.
PAGE 12
Placement When determining where to set up the air compressor in the shop or when taking the air compressor to a job site, an important consideration is access to an adequate and properly fused power supply. Refer to SECTION 2: CIRCUIT REQUIREMENTS for the needs of your particular compressor. Place the compressor on a solid and level surface. Make sure that the hoses attached to your pneumatic device are unrestricted in movement and not subject to being run over by vehicles or punctured by sharp objects.
PAGE 13
SECTION 4: OPERATIONS Operation Safety Starting To start the air compressor: 1. Place the compressor on a solid, level surface with access to a properly fused power supply. DO NOT operate the compressor in an environment where there are explosive, flammable, or caustic fumes or gases. Long term exposure to this machine may cause hearing loss. To protect your hearing, always wear ANSI approved ear protection when operating this air compressor. 2.
PAGE 14
6. Close the drain valve (Figure 5) to allow the tank to build up pressure. Line Pressure Regulation The air tool that you attach to the air compressor should have a preferred PSI operating level. Set the pressure to be delivered to the tool according to the required level of the tool. To control the air supply to your tool: Figure 5. Drain valve. 7. Check the tank pressure gauge (Figures 6 and 7) to see that the tank pressure climbs to approximately 115120 PSI (around 8 BAR) and turns OFF.
PAGE 15
Connecting Tools 3. Connect an air line with a 1⁄4" NPT plug to the quick-connect coupler on the air compressor shown in Figure 9. When choosing air tools, consider the amount of air used (cubic feet per minute or CFM) by the tool. Nailers and staple guns have a low CFM requirement because they use air in short bursts. A paint sprayer or a pneumatic grinder uses a more continuous stream of air requiring a high CFM.
PAGE 16
Storage When storing your air compressor, follow these guidelines: 1. Turn the compressor switch lever to OFF. Failure to unplug the air compressor before storage may result in the compressor running continuously, causing overheating, damage to the compressor, and possibly a fire. 2. Unplug the compressor. 3. Turn the regulator counterclockwise to set the line pressure to zero. 4. Run the air tool to relieve the air pressure in the hose, then remove the air hose and the tool.
PAGE 17
SECTION 5: MAINTENANCE Schedule If the compressor is used on a daily basis, perform the following checks each week. Weekly 1. Blow dirt and dust off of the air filter (Figure 10), then re-install. Operating this equipment has the potential to cause eye injury and hearing loss. Always wear eye and ear protection when operating an air compressor. Be certain the safety protection you wear meet the appropriate standards of the American National Standards Institute (ANSI).
PAGE 18
Monthly After the first 50 working hours or 30 days, perform the following maintenance: 1. Change the oil in the air compressor pump as described in Changing Oil on Page 20. Pressure Safety Valve Quarterly The pressure safety valve prevents damage to the tank by releasing pressure when the tank reaches maximum capacity. After every 300 working hours or 3 months, perform the following maintenance: To check the pressure safety valve: 1.

SECTION 6: SERVICE This section is provided for your convenience—it is not a substitute for the Grizzly Service Department. If you need help troubleshooting, replacing parts, or you are unsure of how to perform the procedures in this section, then feel free to call our Technical Support at (570) 546-9663. Troubleshooting Symptom Possible Cause Possible Solution Motor will not start. 1. Tank already pressurized. 1. Motor will not start if tank is fully pressurized. 2. Wait for motor to cool. 2.
PAGE 21
Symptom Possible Cause Possible Solution Loud repetitious noise coming from air compressor. 1. Pulley setscrews or keys are missing or loose. 1. Inspect keys and setscrews. Replace or tighten if necessary. 2. Adjust fan cover mounting position, tighten fan, or shim fan cover. 2. Motor fan is hitting the cover. Low pressure at the tool. 1. Pressure regulator. 2. Air leaks in hoses. 3. Pressure gauge bad. 4. Pressure switch turns the motor OFF too soon.
PAGE 22
Symptom Possible Cause Possible Solution Air leaks from pressure switch. 1. Faulty check valve. 1. Repair the check valve (see Page 20). 2. Replace pressure switch. 2. Faulty pressure switch. Air is dirty or has excessive moisture. 1. Tank is not drained. 2. Delivery pipes are dirty. Changing Oil Change the oil in the air compressor pump after the initial 50 hours, or 30 days of use; and every 300 hours, or 3 months after the first oil change.
PAGE 23
3. Inspect the O-ring and diaphragm (Figure 15) for damage and dirt. Fixing Air Leaks Diaphragm O-ring Air leaks will cause low air output and increase the time the compressor must run. To find air leaks: 1. Turn the compressor OFF when the tank is fully pressurized and unplug the compressor. Figure 15. Check valve diaphragm and spring. 4. Replace any damaged parts and clean any dirt off of the diaphragm and Oring. 5. Re-assemble the check valve.
PAGE 24
Pressure Switch The pressure switch has been factory set for the highest PSI that is safe for this compressor. The pressure switch ensures the compressor will shut OFF when the air tank reaches maximum PSI. NOTICE This air compressor has been factory set to turn ON and OFF at the proper PSI range. Only attempt to adjust the pressure regulator if your air compressor does not reach, or pressurizes beyond the proper PSI level. 5.
