Preparing for installation

WARNING: Disconnect, tag, and lock out the power

source, and then release all pressure from the system

before attempting to install, service, relocate, or perform

any maintenance.

WARNING: This compressor is extremely top heavy. Enlist

additional help to remove it from the shipping skid.

CAUTION: Never use the shipping skid for mounting the

compressor.

IMPORTANT: Provide a minimum clearance of 18 in.

between the compressor ﬂ ywheel or fan and the wall,

and ensure clear access to the drain valve to facilitate

condensate drainage.

IMPORTANT: It is extremely important to install the

compressor in a clean, well ventilated area where the

surrounding air temperature will not be more than 100°F.

IMPORTANT: Do not locate the compressor air inlet near

steam, paint spray, sandblast areas, or any other source of

contamination.

IMPORTANT: This compressor is not intended for outdoor

installation.

□ Unbolt the air compressor unit (A) from the shipping skid.

Use a ratchet with a 1/2 in. socket.

□ Remove the air compressor unit (A) from the skid. This

requires at least two people - one person to “walk” the

unit off the skid and one to help maintain balance so the

unit does not topple. Place the air compressor unit (A)

where you plan to install it (at least 18 in. from any wall or

surface).
