SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
When operating compressor, de-energize input power leads at their source before changing connections or performing maintenance on the unit. The voltage generated by incoming power can cause death by electrocution.
Never disconnect any high pressure hose from the compressor without first completely exhausting air pressure from the entire unit.
Never suddenly open a valve. Always crack valve open and allow a gradual pressure build-up. Then slowly open to full position. Failure to observe this warning may result in a high pressure knock which could rupture a fitting and cause serious injury.
Never continue to operate compressor after a relief valve has popped. This malfunction must be Investigated promptly or damage to equipment and serious injury to personnel may result.
Always build up or reduce pressure in compressor slowly, to permit even expansion and contraction in the compressor.
During operation, keep a close watch on the pressure gages. Confine compressor discharge pressure on low and high pressure within specified limits.
Never operate with bypass pressure above 157 PSI.
Do not attempt to tighten any high pressure lines or fittings or perform any Work on the equipment while compressor is operating or when system is under pressure.
Never clean lines, air filter, or parts of compressor with gasoline or other flammable liquid. This may cause an explosion in the high pressure air system.
During operation personnel should keep hands away from manifolds, after-cooler tubes, and compressor as these parts get extremely hot and if touched can result in severe burns.
The strip heater of the filter operates when temperature is below 35°F. Keep hands away from heater as it reaches a very high temperature when operating.
The format of this manual is not in accordance with established Department of Army specifications because of the short leadtime involved. The technical content has been furnished by the equipment manufacturer and augmented with a

This fine document...
Was brought to you by me:
Liberated Manuals -- free army and government manuals
Why do I do it? I am tired of sleazy CD-ROM sellers, who take publicly available information, slap “watermarks” and other junk on it, and sell it.
Those masters of search engine manipulation make sure that their sites that sell free information, come up first in search engines. They did not create it...
They did not even scan it... Why should they get your money? Why are not letting you give those free manuals to your friends?
I am setting this document FREE. This document was made by the US
Government and is NOT protected by Copyright. Feel free to share, republish, sell and so on.
I am not asking you for donations, fees or handouts. If you can, please provide a link to liberatedmanuals.com, so that free manuals come up first in search engines:
