time delay fuse. NOTE: If compressor is connected to a cir-
cuit protected by fuses, use only time delay fuses. Time delay
fuses should be marked “D” in Canada and “T” in the U.S.
If any of the above conditions cannot be met, or if operation of the
compressor repeatedly causes interruption of the power, it may be
necessary to operate it from a 20 amp circuit. It is not necessary to
change the cord set.
MAIN POWER DISCONNECT SWITCH
Install a main power disconnect switch in the line from the panel
to the compressor. The main power disconnect switch must be
located near the compressor, for ease of use and safety. When
turned OFF, the main power disconnect switch shuts off all
power to the compressor. When it is turned ON, the compressor
will start and stop automatically, controlled by the pressure
switch.
Air Distribution System
WARNING: Risk of bursting. Plastic or PVC pipe is not designed
for use with compressed air. Regardless of its indicated pressure
rating, plastic pipe can burst from air pressure. Use only metal pipe
for air distribution lines.
INSTALLING AND DISCONNECTING HOSES
WARNING: Risk of unsafe operation. Firmly grasp hose in hand
when installing or disconnecting to prevent hose whip. Ensure
regulated pressure gauge reads 0 psi.
The next figure represents a typical air distribution system.
The following are tips to remember when setting up the air
compressor’s air distribution system.
NOTE: Compressed air from oil lube air compressors will contain
wa ter condensation and oil mist. Several drains, traps and filters
will be needed to supply air without water (including aerosols) or oil
to spray equipment, air tools and accessories requiring filtered air.
Always read the in struc tions for the air tools and accessories being
used.
