Hazards & Warnings
Electrical Shock Hazards
This generator produces dangerous electrical voltages
that can cause fatal electrical shock. Avoid contact
with bare wires, terminals, connections, etc. while the
unit is running. Make sure all appropriate covers,
guards, and barriers are in place before operating the
Generator.
● Do not assume that there is not power flow to the
terminals, connections, bare wires, etc. when the
generator is not running. The unit could be
connected to another power source that could
back feed through the generator wire leads.
Always test the wire leads for power before
working on the unit.
● The National Electrical Code (NEC) requires the
frame and external electrically conductive parts
of the generator to be connected to an approved
earth ground unless the generator is vehicle
mounted. See article 250.34 of the NEC handbook
if the generator is to be mounted in a portable
vehicle.
Fire Hazards
● For fire safety, the generator must be operated
and maintained properly. Operation must always
comply with applicable codes, standards, laws
and regulations. Adhere strictly to local, state, and
national electrical and building codes. Comply
with regulations of the Occupational Safety and
Health Administration (OSHA). Ensure the
generator and engine are operated in accordance
with the manufacturer’s instructions and
recommendations. Do not alter the construction
of the generator or engine or change controls
which might create an unsafe operating condition.
● Keep a fire extinguisher near the generator at all
times. Make sure the extinguisher is rated “ABC”
by the National Fire Protection Association. Keep
the extinguisher properly charged and be
informed on instructions for use.
Explosion Hazards
● Do not smoke around the generator. Wipe any fuel
or oil spills immediately. Make sure there are no
combustible materials near or on the generator
that can cause a FIRE or EXPLOSION. Keep the
area surrounding the generator clean and free
from debris.

Operation
Initial Startup Preparation
Every GCRS 40-40 T4F is tested at the factory before
shipment. This testing assures that the unit is
operating properly and that the generator and
compressor will deliver its rated capacity. Regardless
of the care taken at the factory, there still exists a
possibility that damage may occur during shipment.
For this reason, it is recommended that the unit be
carefully inspected for evidence of damage during
shipment. The unit is shipped with the positive battery
cable removed. The positive battery cable will need
to be connected before starting.
Pre-Start-up Inspection Checks
This inspection should be done prior to the
compressor test.
I. Unpack and inspect unit thoroughly upon
delivery for any unseen damage during transit.
II. Check all assemblies, clamps, fittings, hose
connections, nuts, and bolts to ensure they are
properly tied and secured to the vehicle. This
is a very critical area of inspection. The
vehicle should not be moved until this
inspection has been completed.
III. Remove all tools, rags, and installation
equipment from the area.
IV. Check compressor oil level and check valves
to ensure they're in the correct position.
V. Check belt tension. Proper belt tensioning is
1/4” deflection @ 2.89 lbf to 4.29 lbf per
strand. (For banded belts, like the one
supplied with the unit, the belt tensioning
should be 1/4” deflection @ 5.78 lbf to 8.58
lbf total.)
Operating Procedure
I. Read this manual carefully before proceeding.
II. Verify the service valve is closed, and
generator loads are disconnected.
III. Start the engine
IV. Allow 3-5 minutes for engine to warm-up.
V. Open service valve or engage generator and
connect electrical equipment
Shutdown Procedure
I. Close service valve, and disconnects all
generator loads.
II. Turn switch key o ff
III. The engine will idle for 45 seconds before
shutting down completely
Operating Conditions
The following conditions should exist for maximum
performance of the compressor:
● The machine should be as close to level as
possible when operating. The machine should
not exceed 10° in any direction .
● Ambient temperature for operation should be
below 120°F (49°C).The machine may
experience high temperature shutdown above
this level.
● Ambient temperature for operation should be

Compressor Lubrication and Maintenance
This section contains instructions for performing the inspection, lubrication and maintenance procedures required
to keep the compressor in proper operating condition. The importance of performing the maintenance described
herein cannot be over emphasized.
Periodic maintenance procedures to be performed on the equipment covered by this manual are listed below. It
should be understood that the intervals between inspections specified are maximum intervals. More frequent
inspections should be made if the unit is operating in a dusty environment, in high ambient temperature, or in
other unusual conditions. A planned program of periodic inspection and maintenance will help avoid premature
failure and costly repairs. Daily visual inspections should become a routine.
The LUBRICATION AND MAINTENANCE CHART lists serviceable items on this compressor package. The
items are listed according to their frequency of maintenance, followed by those items which need only “As
Required” maintenance. The maintenance time intervals are expressed in hours. Use the display panel hour
readings for determining your maintenance schedules. To find machine hours simply use the left/right buttons to
scroll to the correct parameter. Perform the maintenance at multiple intervals of the hours shown.
In addition to the following LUBRICATION AND MAINTENANCE CHART refer to the Engine Operator’s
manual for recommended engine lubrication and maintenance.
COMPRESSOR MUST BE SHUT DOWN AND COMPLETELY RELIEVED OF PRESSURE PRIOR
TO CHECKING FLUID LEVELS. OPEN SERVICE VALVE TO ASSURE RELIEF OF SYSTEM AIR
PRESSURE. FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THIS WARNING MAY CAUSE DAMAGE TO
PROPERTY AND SERIOUS BODILY HARM.

Compressor Lubrication and Maintenance
OBSERVE ALL GAUGE READINGS. NOTE ANY CHANGE FROM THE NORMAL
READING AND DETERMINE THE CAUSE. HAVE NECESSARY REPAIRS MADE.
“NORMAL” IS THE USUAL GAUGE READING WHEN OPERATING AT SIMILAR
CONDITIONS ON A DAY-TO-DAY OPERATION.
FIRST COMPRESSOR OIL AND OIL FILTER CLEANING SHOULD BE DONE AT 50
HOURS. ALSO, MORE FREQUENT OIL CHANGES WILL BE REQUIRED UNDER
EXTREME OPERATING CONDITIONS OF EXTREMELY HIGH OR LOW
TEMPERATURES, AND HIGH HUMIDITY.
CHANGE OIL EVERY SIX MONTHS, EVEN IF THE NORMAL OIL CHANGE PERIOD, IN
HOURS, HAS NOT YET ELAPSED.
ALWAYS WARM UP THOROUGHLY PRIOR TO CHANGING EITHER THE ENGINE OIL
OR THE COMPRESSOR OIL.
DO NOT OPEN COMPRESSOR OIL DRAIN; OIL FILTER CAP, OR OIL FILTER UNTIL
ALL PRESSURE HAS BEEN RELIEVED. CHECK BY MANUALLY OPENING THE ASME
SUMP PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE.
Draining Water From Compressor Oil
Prior to initial start-up; it is recommended to drain
water from the compressor sump. Compressor must
be shut o ff for at least 4-6 hours. First, verify there is
no pressure in the system. Then, slowly crack the oil
drain cap. When opening the oil drain port, any water
will drain out before the oil if fully separated. Catch
all fluids in a container and dispose of properly. When
no water is present, retighten the compressor oil drain
cap. Check the compressor oil level and add oil if
necessary.
NOTE
Lubricant Recommendations
IT IS IMPORTANT THAT THE
COMPRESSOR FLUID BE OF A
RECOMMENDED TYPE AND THAT THIS
OIL AS WELL AS THE AIR FILTER, OIL
FILTER AND COALESCER ELEMENTS BE
INSPECTED AND REPLACED AS STATED
IN THIS MANUAL. THE COMBINATION OF
A SEPARATOR ELEMENT LOADED WITH
DIRT AND OXIDIZED OIL PRODUCTS
TOGETHER WITH INCREASED AIR
VELOCITY AS A RESULT OF THIS
CLOGGED CONDITION MAY
PRODUCE A CRITICAL POINT WHILE
THE MACHINE IS IN OPERATION WHERE
IGNITION CAN TAKE PLACE AND COULD
CAUSE A FIRE IN THE OIL SUMP.
FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THIS
WARNING MAY CAUSE DAMAGE TO
PROPERTY AND SERIOUS BODILY HARM.
WARNING

CAUTION
Not all lubricating oils are suitable for rotary screw
compressor use. The most satisfactory oils are the non-
detergent types that contain high levels of corrosion,
oxidation, and foam Inhibitors.
Your Morse SCI8 compressor is factory filled with
SCO 1000. Other non-detergent motor oils, SAE
10W, class SE or CD, and HD32 HYD OIL that meet
the requirements below can be used. However, Morse
recommends you use SCO 1000. DO NOT MIX OILS.
The viscosity of the oil chosen depends largely on the
ambient operating temperature range. The oil must
provide su ffi cient lubrication for bearings and rotors at
operating temperature, and it must have a pour point
low enough to provide fluidity at low starting

Compressor Lubrication and Maintenance
Lubricant Recommendations
(Continued)
The following general characteristics categorize
lubricants that have been found to be satisfactory for
use in helical screw type air compressors. Due to the
impossibility of establishing limits on all physical
and chemical properties of lubricants which can affect
their performance in the compressor over a broad
range of environmental influences, the responsibility
for recommending and consistently furnishing a
suitable heavy-duty lubricant must rest with the
individual supplier. The lubricant supplier’s
recommendation must, therefore, be based upon not
only the following general characteristics, but also
upon his own knowledge of the suitability of the
recommended lubricant in helical screw type air
compressors operating in the particular environment
involved.
MIXING DIFFERENT TYPES OF BRANDS
OF LUBRICANTS IS NOT
RECOMMENDED DUE TO THE
POSSIBILITY OF A DILUTION OF THE
ADDITIVES OR A REACTION BETWEEN
ADDITIVES OF DIFFERENT TYPES.
temperatures. In general, the viscosity range
represented by these SAE grades is satisfactory for

-20 degrees Fahrenheit to 120 degrees
Fahrenheit HD 32 HYD OIL
(-25 degrees Fahrenheit Pour Point)
-10 degrees Fahrenheit to 75 degrees
Fahrenheit SAE 10 W
(-20 degrees Fahrenheit Pour Point)

Application Guide
Compressor Oil Level
Your Morse SCI8 compressor should always have the
proper level of oil. The oil level should always be in
the middle of the upper sight glass (as shown below).
