To help recognize this information, observe the following symbols.
SAFETY INFORMATION GENERAL SAFETY (Continued) 6. Do not stand on or use the unit as a handhold. 7. Before each use, inspect compressed air system and electrical components for signs of damage, deterioration, weakness or leakage. Repair or replace defective items before using. 8. Check all fasteners at frequent intervals for proper tightness. 9. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry that will get caught in the moving parts of the unit. 10.
SAFETY INFORMATION GENERAL SAFETY (Continued) WARNING WARNING Risk of Personal Injury. Never operate compressor without a beltguard. This unit can start automatically without warning. Personal injury or property damage could occur from contact with moving parts. Risk of Explosion. An ASME code safety relief valve with a setting no higher than the maximum allowable working pressure (MAWP) MUST be installed in the tank for this compressor.
PACKAGE CONTENTS J I E C H L K D G A M B F PART DESCRIPTION A Pressure Switch - AUTO/OFF Switch - In the AUTO position, the compressor shuts off automatically when tank pressure reaches the maximum preset pressure. After air is used from the tank and drops to a preset low level, the pressure switch automatically turns the motor back on. In the OFF position, the compressor will not operate. This switch should be in the OFF position when connecting or disconnecting the power from the unit.
PACKAGE CONTENTS PART DESCRIPTION QTY. D Check Valve - One-way valve that allows air to enter the tank, but prevents air in the 1 tank from flowing back into the compressor pump. E Belt Guard - Covers the belt, motor pulley and flywheel. 1 F Bottom Drain Valve - Use this valve to drain moisture from the tank daily to reduce 1 the risk of corrosion. G Tank Pressure Gauge - Indicates amount of air pressure stored in tank. 1 H Air Filter - Keeps large particulates out of the air flowing into the compressor.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS UNIT INSTALLATION WARNING NOTICE Risk of Personal Injury. Do not lift or move unit without appropriately rated equipment. Be sure the unit is securely attached to lifting device used. Do not lift unit by holding onto tubes or coolers. Do not use unit to lift other attached equipment. Unit Care and Maintenance. This compressor is not intended for outdoor installation.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 3. Insert mounting bolts. Use 3/8 in. x 5 in. wedge anchors (not included) to secure the unit. Place nut and washer on bolt. Thread nut onto bolt until tops are flush. Strike bolt with hammer until nut and washer are setting on top of the compressor foot. Tighten nut using ratchet with a 9/16 in. socket until anchor is set (using installation torque specifications of bolt being used). Loosen nut to leave a 1/16 in. (1.6 mm) gap for stress relief during unit operation.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS WIRING Local electrical wiring codes differ from area to area. Source wiring and protector must be rated for at least the amperage and voltage indicated on the motor nameplate and meet all electrical codes for this minimum. Use a slow blow fuse type T or a 240 Volt double pole circuit breaker. MINIMUM WIRE SIZES (must meet all codes) Up to 75 ft. long 1. Inspect the source wiring before continuing with installation. Confirm voltage with volt meter line-to-ground (see Figure 1).
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 2. Remove the pressure switch cover by loosening the screw (see Figure 1). Use a Phillips screwdriver (not included). Pressure switch styles may vary. 2 Screw WARNING Risk of Shock. All wiring and electrical connections must be performed by a qualified electrician familiar with industrial motor controls. Installations must be in accordance with local and national codes. 3. Familiarize yourself with the pressure switch once cover is removed.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 4. Remove ground screw. Install strain relief on pressure switch. DO NOT tighten strain relief on power cord until wiring is complete. Insert the bare wires (black, white, bare/green) through the strain relief. Attach bare/green ground wire first to ground screw on pressure switch body. Look for the “Line” markings on pressure switch. Install Line wires and tighten terminal screws.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FILTER 1 Install air filters (H) on pump. Filter styles may vary.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS LUBRICATION 2 CAUTION Inspect Before Use. Check for proper oil level before operating! Oil Fill Plug Remove cap on pump. Check oil level; some models are shipped with oil in the pump. See specification label on compressor pump for the proper oil capacity and oil type. OIL INFORMATION Kobalt Air Compressor Oil SKU 221008 Kobalt Synthetic Blend Oil SKU 221009 Oil Drain Plug Mobil 1® synthetic 10W30 Oil Capacity 47.4 ounces Sight Glass 3 Do not use regular automotive oil.
ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS START-UP / BREAK-IN PROCEDURE WARNING WARNING Risk of Personal Injury. Do not attach air tools to open end of the hose until start-up is completed and the unit checks okay. Risk of Personal Injury. Never disconnect threaded joints with pressure in tank! 1. Return power to unit from main. 2. Check oil level per the Lubrication Section of this manual. 3. Open the bottom drain valve (G) (see Figure 1). Turn outlet valve to open air flow. 1 G 4.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS ON/OFF CYCLING OF COMPRESSOR WARNING NOTICE Risk of Bursting. Drain tank every day to prevent corrosion and possible injury due to tank damage. For optimal performance of tank drain, tank pressure should be between 10 40 PSI. Do not operate drain with more than 40 PSI in tank or drain valve may be damaged. Drain tank of moisture daily using the drain valve at the bottom of the tank. Unit Care and Maintenance. Drain liquid from tank daily.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE WARNING NOTICE Risk of Explosion. Disconnect, tag and lock out power source, then release all pressure from the system before attempting to install, service, relocate or perform any maintenance. Unit Care and Maintenance. Drain liquid from tank daily. All repairs should be performed by an authorized service representative. For efficient operation, perform the following maintenance. 1.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE 5. Check air filter to be sure it is clean. Replace filter if filter is dirty. 6. Check the safety valve by performing the following steps: a. Restore power to unit; turn pressure switch to the AUTO position. Run until unit reaches 90 PSI. Turn pressure switch to OFF position. b. Wearing safety glasses and hearing protection, pull the ring on the safety valve to release pressure from compressor tank.
TROUBLESHOOTING PROBLEM Low discharge pressure POSSIBLE CAUSE 1. Air demand exceeds pump capacity 2. Restricted air intake 3. Air leaks (fittings, tubing on compressor, or plumbing outside of system) 4. Blown gaskets 5. Leaking or damaged valves CORRECTIVE ACTION 1. Reduce air demand or use a compressor with more capacity. 2. Clean or replace the air filter element. 3. Listen for escaping air. Apply soap solution to all fittings and connections. Bubbles will appear at points of leakage.
TROUBLESHOOTING PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE CORRECTIVE ACTION Excessive noise (knocking) 1. Loose motor pulley or flywheel 2. Loose fasteners on pump or motor 3. Lack of oil in crankcase 1. Tighten pulley / flywheel clamp bolts and setscrews. 2. Tighten fasteners. 4. Worn connecting rod 5. Worn piston pin bores 6. Piston hitting the valve plate 7. Noisy check valve in compressor system 3. Check for proper oil level; if low, check for possible damage to bearings. Dirty oil can cause excessive wear. 4.
TROUBLESHOOTING PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE CORRECTIVE ACTION Motor hums and runs slowly or not at all 1. Low voltage 1. Check incoming voltage. It should be approximately 230 volts. Motor will not run properly on 208 volts. Low voltage could be due to wires (from electrical source to compressor) being too small in diameter and / or too long. Have a qualified electrician check these conditions and make repairs as needed. 2. Limit the circuit to the use of compressor only. 2.
TROUBLESHOOTING PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE Reset mechanism 1. Lack of proper ventilation / room cuts out temperature too high repeatedly or circuit breaker 2. Too many devices on trips repeatedly same circuit 3. Restricted air intake 4. Loose electrical connection 5. Pressure switch shut-off pressure set too high 6. Malfunctioning check valve CORRECTIVE ACTION 1. Move compressor to well-ventilated area. 2. Limit the circuit to the use of only the air compressor. 3. Clean or replace filter element. 4.
TROUBLESHOOTING PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE CORRECTIVE ACTION Pressure switch continuously blows air out the unloader valve Malfunctioning check valve Replace the check valve if the unloader valve on the pressure switch bleeds off constantly when unit shuts off. DANGER Risk of Explosion. Do not disassemble check valve with air pressure in tank.
