Operating Instructions
IN227906AV  12/02
Air compressor units are intended to
provide compressed air to power pneu-
matic tools and operate spray guns. The
pumps supplied are oil lubricated. A
small amount of oil carryover is present
in the compressed air stream.
Applications requiring air free of oil or
water should have the appropriate coa-
lescing filter installed. The air compres-
sor unit must be placed on a solid floor
or solid ground. Any other use of these
units will void the warranty and the
manufacturer will not be responsible for
problems or damages resulting from
such misuse.
All models are equipped with cast-iron
pumps. Gas engine models are equipped
with an air governor for automatic idle
down when the tanks reach a preset
pressure. Model VT6131 is driven by a
dual capacitor, 3450 RPM, 60 Hz,
120/240 dual-voltage motor with manu-
al reset thermal protection. Honda
engine models have a low-oil level shut-
down.
Compressors include factory-mounted
belt guards, ductile iron crankshafts, fly-
wheels and ball bearings on crankshaft.
