ASSEMBLY
Tools Required for Assembly
1 - 9/16" socket or open end wrench
1 - electric drill
Unpacking
1. Remove all packaging.
It may be necessary to brace or support one side of the
outfit when removing the pallet because the air
compressor will have a tendency to tip.
2. Remove and discard the (4) screws and washers holding the compressor
to the pallet.
3. With the help of another person carefully remove air compressor from
pallet and place on a level surface.
To Add Oil To Pump
Compressors are shipped without oil. A small amount of
oil may be present in the pump upon receipt of the air
compressor. This is due to plant testing and does not mean the pump
contains oil. Do not attempt to operate this air compressor without first
adding oil to the crankcase. Serious damage can result from even limited
operation unless filled with oil and broken in correctly. Make sure to
closely follow initial start-up procedures.
Multi-Viscosity motor oils, like 10W 30, should not be
used in an air compressor. They leave carbon deposits on
critical components, thus reducing performance and compressor life. Use
air compressor oil only.
NOTE: Oil is included with some units. If oil is not included, use an oil
specifically formulated for use in an air compressor, such as Porter-Cable PAS1
air compressor oil. Oil may be found at the store where the air compressor was
purchased.
1. Place unit on a level surface.
Drain tank to release air
pressure before removing
the oil fill cap or oil drain plug.
2. Remove oil fill plug (A) and slowly add
compressor oil until it is even with the top
of the oil fill hole. NOTE: Do not allow oil
to be lower than 3/8" (6 threads) from the
top at any time. When filling the
crankcase, the oil flows very slowly into
the pump. If the oil is added too quickly, it
will overflow and appear to be full. NOTE:
Crankcase oil capacity is approximately 16
fluid ounces.
3. Replace oil fill plug.
