IMPORTANT
NOTICE
This machine may have been shipped from the factory
with the drawbar positioned upright.
To Convert From Shipping Position to Towing Position
The following tools are required:
Ratchet
13mm socket to fit ratchet
Torque wrench set to 68 foot pounds
(9.4 kg--meters)
16mm socket to fit torque wrench
5 inch extension for torque wrench
Hardware Included:
(4) 12mm bolts with pre--applied thread lock
(2) 8mm Taptite Bolts
(2) Washers
(2) Safety Chains
1. Remove hardware box from compressor
toolbox.
2. Open box and remove the bag containing
hardware, safety chains and assembly
instructions.
3. Using the jack, raise the front of the unit so
that the legs are approximately 1” above
the ground.
4. Remove the temporary retaining bolts from
both sides of the frame at the drawbar
connection (See Figure 1).
5. Carefully lower drawbar to the Level
Position.
6. Install the four bolts (with pre--applied
thread lock) to the four points inside the
enclosure and torque to 68 ft. lbs.
(9.4 kg--m) (See Figure 2).
7. Install safety chains by sliding the second
link of one chain into the slot in drawbar
plate. Fasten chain to plate using taptite
and washer. Repeat for the other chain
(See Sketch).

SECTION 1-- SAFETY
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
General Information
Ensure that the operator reads and understands the
decals and consults the manuals before maintenance
or operation.
Ensure that the Operation and Maintenance manual,
and the manual holder if equipped, are not removed
permanently from the machine.
Ensure that maintenance personnel are adequately
trained, competent and have read the manuals.
Make sure that all protective covers are in place and
that the canopy/doors are closed during operation.
The specification of this machine is such that the ma-
chine is not suitable for use in flammable gas risk
areas. If such an application is required then all local
regulations, codes of practice and site rules must be
observed. To ensure that the machine can operate in
a safe and reliable manner, additional equipment such
as gas detection, exhaust spark arrestors, and intake
(shut--off) valves may be required, dependent on local
regulations or the degree of risk involved.
Air discharged from this machine may contain carbon
monoxide or other contaminants which will cause seri-
ous injury or death. Do not breathe this air.
Compressed air can be dangerous if incorrectly han-
dled. Before doing any work on the unit, ensure that all
pressure is vented from the system and that the ma-
chine cannot be started accidentally.
Ensure that the machine is operating at the rated pres-
sure and that the rated pressure is known to all rele-
vant personnel.
All air pressure equipment installed in or connected to
the machine must have safe working pressure ratings
of at least the machine safety valve rating.
If more than one compressor is connected to one com-
mon downstream plant, effective check valves and
isolation valves must be fitted and controlled by work
procedures, so that one machine cannot accidentally
be pressurized or over pressurized by another.
Compressed air must not be used for a feed to any
form of breathing apparatus or mask.
The discharged air contains a very small percentage
of compressor lubricating oil and care should be taken
to ensure that downstream equipment is compatible.
If the discharged air is to be ultimately released into a
confined space, adequate ventilation must be pro-
vided.
When using compressed air, always use appropriate
personal protective equipment.
All pressure containing parts, especially flexible hoses
and their couplings, must be regularly inspected, be
free from defects and be replaced according to the
Manual instructions.
Avoid bodily contact with compressed air.
Never operate unit without first observing all safety
warnings and carefully reading the operation and
maintenance manual shipped from the factory with
this machine.
Never operate the engine of this machine inside a
building without adequate ventilation. Avoid breathing
exhaust fumes when working on or near the machine.
Do not alter or modify this machine.
A battery contains sulfuric acid and can give off gases
which are corrosive and potentially explosive. Avoid
contact with skin, eyes and clothing. In case of contact,
flush area immediately with water.
Exercise extreme caution when using booster battery.
To jump battery, connect ends of one booster cable to
the positive (+) terminal of each battery. Connect one
end of other cable to the negative (--) terminal of the
booster battery and other end to a ground connection
away from dead battery (to avoid a spark occurring
near any explosive gases that may be present). After
starting unit, always disconnect cables in reverse or-
der.
Never operate unit without first observing all safety
warnings and carefully reading the operation and
maintenance manual shipped from the factory with
this machine.

This machine may include such materials as oil, diesel
fuel, antifreeze, brake fluid, oil/air filters and batteries
which may require proper disposal when performing
maintenance and service tasks. Contact local authori-
ties for proper disposal of these materials.
High Pressure Air can cause serious injury or death.
Relieve pressure before removing filler plugs/caps, fit-
tings or covers.
Air pressure can remain trapped in air supply line
which can result in serious injury or death. Always
carefully vent air supply line at tool or vent valve before
performing any service.
This machine produces loud noise with the doors open
or service valve vented. Extended exposure to loud
noise can cause hearing loss. Always wear hearing
protection when doors are open or service valve is
vented.
Never inspect or service unit without first disconnect-
ing battery cable(s) to prevent accidental starting.
Do not remove the pressure cap from a HOT radiator.
Allow radiator to cool down before removing pressure
cap.
Do not use petroleum products (solvents or fuels) un-
der high pressure as this can penetrate the skin and
result in serious illness. wear eye protection while
cleaning unit with compressed air to prevent debris
from injuring eye(s).
Disconnected air hoses whip and can cause serious
injury or death. Always attach a safety flow restrictor
to each hose at the source of supply or branch line in
accordance with OSHA Regulation 29CFR Section
1926.302(b).
Hot pressurized fluid can cause serious burns. Do not
open radiator while hot.
Rotating fan blade can cause serious injury. Do not
operate without guard in place.
Use care to avoid contacting hot surfaces (engine
exhaust manifold and piping, air receiver and air
discharge piping, etc.).
Ether is an extremely volatile, highly flammable gas.
USE SPARINGLY! Do NOT use ETHER if unit has
GLOW Plug starting aid. Engine damage will result.
Never allow the unit to sit stopped with pressure in the
receiver--separator system. As a precaution, open the
manual blowdown valve.
Never operate unit with guards, covers or screens
removed. Keep hands, hair, clothing, tools, blow gun
tips, etc. well away from moving parts.
Make sure wheels, tires and tow bar connectors are in
safe operating condition and tow bar is properly
connected before towing.
Whenever the machine is stopped, air will flow back
into the compressor system from devices or systems
downstream of the machine unless the service valve
is closed. Install a check valve at the machine service
valve to prevent reverse flow in the event of an
unexpected shutdown when the service valve is open.
Hazardous Substance Precaution
The following substances are used in the manufacture
of this machine and may be hazardous to health if used
incorrectly.
Precaution: Avoid ingestion, skin contact and
breathing fumes for the following substances:
Antifreeze, Compressor Oil, Engine Lubricating Oil,
Preservative Grease, Rust Preventative, Diesel Fuel
and Battery Electrolyte.
The following substances may be produced during the
operation of this machine and may be hazardous to
health:
Avoid build--up of Engine Exhaust Fumes in confined
spaces.
Avoid breathing Exhaust Fumes.
Avoid breathing Brake Lining Dust during mainte-
nance.
