If any of the above conditions cannot be met, or if operation of the
compressor repeatedly causes interruption of the power, # may be
necessary
to operate # from a 20 amp circuit. It is not necessary
to change the cord set.
Compatibility
Air tools and accessories
that are run off the compressor
must
be compatible
with petroleum-based
products.
If you suspect
that a material is not compatible
with petroleum
products, an air
line filter for removal of moisture and oil vapor in compressed
air
is required.
NOTE: Always use an air line filter to remove moisture and oil
vapor
when spraying paint.
ALocation
Place the air compressor
in a clean, dry and well ventilated area
at least 12" (30.5 cm) away from the wall or other obstructions
that will interfere with the flow of air. Keep the compressor
away
from areas that have dirt and/or volatile fumes in the atmosphere.
These impurities
may clog the intake filter and valves, causing
inefficient operation.
The air compressor
pump and shroud are designed
to allow for
proper cooling.
The ventilation
openings
on the compressor
are
necessary
to maintain
proper
operating
temperature.
Do not
place rags or other containers
on or near these openings.
Place the air compressor
on a flat surface resting on the rubber
feet.
