SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Please familiarize yourself with the following information to prevent

damage to your compressor unit and injury to the operator.

CAUTIONS

The air compressor and engine will get hot while in

operation. Never touch the discharge tubing, engine

or compressor pump while in operation. The

compressor operates automatically while the engine is running.

WARNING

CAUTION

Compressed air from the unit may contain hazard-

ous fumes. Air produced by this compressor is not

suitable for breathing purposes. Always use a res-

pirator when spraying paint or chemicals, or when sandblasting. Always

wear safety glasses or goggles when using compressed air.

It is not practical or possible to warn you about all the hazards associated

with operating or maintaining this equipment. You must use your own

good judgment.

AIR RECEIVER

Over pressurizing the air receiver could cause personal injury or material

damage. To protect from over pressurizing, a factory pre-set safety valve

is installed.

PLEASE CHECK THE FOLLOWING CAREFULLY:

COMPRESSOR LUBRICATION

ALWAYS CHECK THE OIL LEVEL AND

QUALITY BEFORE START–UP. DO

NOT ADD OR CHANGE OIL WHILE

THE UNIT IS RUNNING.USE ONLY

RECOMMENDED NON-DETERGENT OIL.

RECOMMENDED OIL.

Compressor oil: #EAOIL 10 (1 Litre)

Compressor oil: #EAOIL 40 (4 Litres).

* Compressor originally lled with SAE 20W oil (ISO 68)

Compressor oil is a non-detergent mineral oil formulated with additives to

help minimize carbon build-up, increase ring life and reduce oil consump-

tion, for use at ambient temperatures of 0° to 30°C (32°F - 86°F).

OTHER APPROVED OILS.

Regular mineral oils can also be used in Makita compressors. Always

►TURN OFF ENGINE. WAIT UNTIL ENGINE IS COMPLETELY

STOPPED.

►DRAIN AIR RECEIVER AND AIR LINES OF AIR PRESSURE.

INSTALLATION & OPERATION

CHECKING BELT TENSION

Adjust belt(s) so when pressure is applied at the center, there is approxi-

mately 1/2” slack (see diagram “Figure A” below).

Centre Distance

Too Loose

Too Tight

Slight Bow

Correct Tension

If the belt is in-

stalled too tight,

the engine might

be overloaded.

This will cause

the engine to

overheat. If the

belt is installed

too loosely, it will

slip and excessive

wear and vibration

will occur.

Figure A

1) Turn off engine. Wait until engine is completely stopped

2) Remove belt guard.

3) Loosen engine bolts and slide engine toward compressor head

just enough to allow old belt to be removed.

4) Install proper replacement belt.

5) Slide engine away from compressor head to provide recommend-

ed tension as shown in diagram (Figure A.)

6) Align belt using a straight edge ruler against pulley’s edge.

7) Fasten engine bolts.

8) Ensure engine and compressor pulley’s are secure. Re-check

alignment.

9) Re-install belt guard.

10) Belt tension should be checked after 20 hours of operation.

Check tension monthly thereafter.

HOW TO INSTALL A NEW BELT IF REQUIRED:

4) Read entire engine manual.

5) Starting the engine.

a) Move fuel lever to the “On” position.

- If engine is cold, move choke lever to the “Closed” position

- If engine is warm, leave choke lever in “Open” position

b) Turn engine switch to “On” position.

c) Pull starter grip lightly until you feel resistance, then pull briskly,

return starter grip gently - engine should start, if not repeat.

d) Once the engine starts running, slowly move the choke lever to

the “Open” position.

receiver with compressed air, when maximum pressure (set by

the pilot valve control) is reached, the engine and compressor will

slow down to idle speed, and will return to full RPM when the cut-

in pressure is reached. The unit will continue to cycle automati-

cally until turned off.

6) Stopping the engine.

a) Turn engine switch to the “Off” position.

b) Turn the fuel lever to the “Off” position.

ENGINE IDLE SPEED MAY NEED

TO BE ADJUSTED, EVEN ON YOUR

BRAND NEW UNIT TO COMPEN-

SATE FOR DIFFERENCES IN

ALTITUDE. PLEASE CONSULT THE

ENGINE OPERATING MANUAL.

EXTRA CARE SHOULD BE TAKEN

TO AVOID PERSONAL INJURIES

WITH AUTOMATICALLY CON-

TROLLED COMPRESSORS

MONTHLY

►INSPECT UNIT FOR LEAKS.

►TIGHTEN JOINTS IF LEAKS ARE OBSERVED.

►CHECK V-BELTS FOR PROPER TENSION.

►CHECK COMPRESSOR PULLEY AND ENGINE SHEAVE ARE

ALIGNED AND SECURELY FASTENED.

QUARTERLY OR 300 HOURS (Whichever comes rst)

►INSPECT THE AIR RECEIVER FOR CORROSION OR OTHER

DAMAGE.
