SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Please familiarize yourself with the following information to prevent

damage to your compressor unit and injury to the operator.

The air compressor motor and/or engine will get hot

while in operation. Never touch the discharge tubing,

engine, motor or compressor pump while in operation.

The compressor operates automatically while the power is connected and

turned on, or the engine is running.

Compressed air from the unit may contain hazardous

fumes. Air produced by this compressor is not suitable

for breathing purposes. Always use a respirator 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.

EXTENSION CORDS

The use of extensions cords is not recommended. Plug directly into a

dedicated circuit. If the use of an extension cord is unavoidable then make

sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension

cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will

draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of

power and overheating. Table 1 shows the correct size to use depending on

cord length and nameplate amperage rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier

gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.

Any replacement parts should be purchased with the same specifications

as the original equipment. Please contact the authorized dealer for

replacement parts or specifications.

SAFETY VALVE

This valve is factory installed to prevent over pressurizing of the air receiver.

It is factory set at a specific limit for your particular model, and should never

be tampered with.

Adjustment by user will automatically void the warranty.

INSTALLATION

1. INSTALLATION

Proper care, maintenance and lubrication ensures longevity. The compressor

should always be level for proper lubrication. Do not over tighten foot bolts

as excessive vibration may occur. Use only in a clean, dry, and well-ventilated

area. The compressor has heat dissipation fins for proper cooling. Keep

the fins and other parts that collect dust clean. Do not place rags or other

materials on top of the compressor, as this obstructs cooling and can be a

fire hazard.

2. BREAK-IN PROCEDURE

There is no break-in requirements for this model

NEVER WELD, DRILL OR CHANGE

THE AIR RECEIVER IN ANY WAY.

WARNING

DO NOT REMOVE, MAKE

ADJUSTMENTS TO OR

SUBSTITUTE THIS VALVE!

3. BEFORE OPERATING THE AIR COMPRESSOR, PLEASE

CHECK THE FOLLOWING CAREFULLY:

1. Check to see that nuts and bolts are all snug.

2. Check if the quantity and quality of oil is correct.

3. If the intake filters are dirty, they should be replaced or cleaned.

4. COMPRESSOR LUBRICATION

Recommended Oil:

Eagle Compressor Oil #EAOIL10 (1 litre)

#EAOIL40 (4 litres)

Eagle compressor oil is a non-detergent mineral oil formulated with

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

consumption, 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 Eagle compressors.

Always use a non-detergent oil with the following specifications:

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.

5. FILLING COMPRESSOR WITH OIL

1. Remove the oil filler plug

2. Slowly pour the proper oil into the pump crankcase.

3. Always keep oil level in the middle of the sight glass.

6. ENGINE LUBRICATION (IF ENGINE DRIVEN)

Check engine Owner's manual for lubrication and maintenance

requirements.

7. OIL CHANGES

INITIAL OIL CHANGE DUE AT 100 HOURS

CHANGE OIL EVERY 300 HOURS OR 3 MONTHS, WHICHEVER COMES FIRST.

1. Remove the oil drain plug. Allow oil to drain completely.

2. Replace the oil drain plug.

3. Refill with the recommended oil to the proper level.

8. MAINTENANCE

Before doing any maintenance or adjustments to your air compressor, the

following safety precautions should be taken:

* TURN OFF AND UNPLUG POWER CORD.

* DRAIN AIR RECEIVER AND AIR LINES OF AIR PRESSURE.

9. CHECKING BELT TENSION (If Belt Driven)

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

approximately 1/2" slack (see diagram below).

If the belt is installed too tight, the motor might be overloaded. This will

cause the motor to overheat. If the belt is installed too loosely, it will slip and

excessive wear and vibration will occur.

tension monthly thereafter.

OPERATING YOUR AIR COMPRESSOR

A) GAS ENGINE DRIVEN (continous run only)

1) Check entire unit for any damage.

2) Check compressor and engine oil level, fill or add if necessary.

3) Make sure gas tank is filled.

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.

e) With the engine running properly, the compressor fills the air

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 automatically

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

B) ELECTRIC DRIVE WITH DUAL CONTROL

1) Check unit for any damage.

2) Check compressor oil level, fill or add if necessary.

3) Pressure switch "Off/Auto" knob should be in "Off" position.

4) Plug in power cord to proper electrical outlet.

5 a) Stop/Start (pressure switch) control

1. Shut-off valve on pilot unloader should be closed ("knurled"

knob on top of the pilot unloader should be turned all the way

down).

2. Turn pressure switch "Off/Auto" switch to "Auto". Electric

motor should now start and fill air receiver(s) with compressed

air till cut-out pressure is reached. Compressor should stop

and remain stopped till air receiver pressure reaches the cut-in

pressure. The unit will continue to cycle in this automatic

operation until it is turned off.

b) Continuous run (Pilot unloader) control

1. Open the shut-off valve on pilot unloader ("knurled" knob on

top of the pilot unloader should be turned all the way up).

2. Turn pressure switch "Off/Auto" switch to "Auto", electric motor

should now start and fill air receiver(s) with compressed air till

full pressure is reached. To engage continous run, turn “knurled

knob down. Your compressor will idle down and continue to

idle once maximum pressure is acheived. When cut-in pressure

is reached, the unloader valves will de-activate and unit will

compress air. The unit will continue in this automatic operation

until the unit is stopped ("Off/Auto" switch turn to the "Off"

position and/or electric power supply is disconnected).
