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 in the crankcase. 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 reaches
the middle of the sight glass (B).
NOTE: 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 29 fluid ounces.
3. Replace oil fill plug.
