SELECTINGA LOCATION
GENERAL° Select a clean, dry, welt-lighted indoor area with plenty
of space far proper cooling air flow and accessibility. Locate the unit
at least 12 inches (30 cm) from wails, and make sure the main
power supply is clearly identified and accessible
TEMPERATURE.. Ideal operating temperatures are between 32"F
and 100°F (0°C and 37.B_C) If temperatures consistently drop
below 32°F (0"C), locale the unit inside a heated building !f th_s is
not possible, you must protect safety!relief valves and drain valves
from freezing
CAUTION Never operate in temperatures below 20°F (_6.6°C)
or above 125°F (5t.0°C)..
HUMID AREAS. In frequently humid areas, moisture may form in
the bare pump and produce sfudge in the lubricant, causing running
parts to wear out prematurely Excessive moisture is especially
likely to occur if the unit is located in an unheated area that is
subject to large temperature changes Two signs of excessive
humidity are external condensation on the bare pump when it cools
down and a "_mllky_appearance in petroleum compressor lubricant
You may be able to prevent moisture from forming in the bare pump
by increasing ventilation, operating for longer intervals or installing
acrankcase heater kit
NOISE CONSIDERATIONS Consull local officials [or information
regarding acceptable noise levels in your area To reduce excessive
noise, use vibralion isolator pads or intake silencers, relocate the
unit or construct total enclosures or baffle waits
PERMANENT MOUNTING
WARNING Remove the unit from the skid before mounting..
The unit must be permanently mounted When mounting the unit.

GENERAL
Your air compressor was designed for f 00% continuous duty
operation with the use of Ingersoll-Rand synthetic compressor
lubricant and 60% continuous duty operation with the use of
petroleum lubricant In other words, synthetic lubricant allows the
compressor to pump continuously without cycling Petroleum
lubricant limits the compressor to a maximum of 36 minutes of
pumping time per hour The compressor should not cycle more than
10 times per hour

BELT ADJUSTMENT
CHECKING BELT TENSION Check bell tension occasionaf!y,
especially if looseness is suspected A quick check !o delermine if
adjustment is proper may be made by observing the stack side of
the bait for a slight bow when the unit is in operation if aslight bow
is evident, the belt is usuaily adjusted satisfactorily
TENSIONING BELTS Belt tensioning can be achieved by loosening
the motor anchor screws, pushing the motor away from the pump,
and reiightening tt_e motor anchor screws The motor can be easily
moved by placing a prying toot beneath it. A commercially available
spreader or other belt tensioning device can also be helpS'u1should
tensioning be necessary,

Followthe procedures outlined below to correctfy set and measure
belt tension
1. Lay eslraight edge across the top outer surface of the belt drive
from pulley to sheave
2. At the cen_.arof the span. perpendicular !o the bait. apply pressure
to the outer surface of the bell with a tensiongauge Force the belt
to the deflection indicated in the table at right Compare the reading
on the tension gauge to the following t.able
t0.9, I .0 I 0.o J
Ensure the pulley and sheave are properly aligned and fhe motor
anchor screws are adequately retightened prior to restarting the
compressor
CAUTION Improper pulley/sheave alignment and belt tension
can result in motor overload, excessive vibration,
and premature belt andlor bearing failure
To prevent these problems from occurring, ensure
the pulley and sheave are aligned and belt tension
is satisfactory after Installing new belts or
tensioning existing belts
TANK INSPECTION
The life of an air receiver tank is dependent upon several factors
including, but not ltmlted to, operating conditions, ambient
environments, and Ihe level of matntaoanCer The exact effect of
these factors on lank life is difficult to predict; therefore,
Ingersoll-Rand recommends that you schedule acertified tank
inspection within the first five years of compressor service. To
arrange a tank inspection, conlacl the nearest _-RAir Center or
distributor, or call 1-800-AIR SERV
if the tank has not been inspected within the first 10 years of
compressor service, the tank must be taken out of service until it
has passed inspection Tanks that fail to meet requirements must be
replaced
_, WARNING Failure to replace a rusted air receiver tsnk could
result in air receiver tank rupture or explosion,
which could cause substantial property damage,
severe personal injury, or death, Never modifyor
repair tank. Obtain replacement from service centarr
