Campbell Hausfeld Cast Iron Series Operating Instructions Manual

Please read and save these instructions. Read carefully before attempting to assemble, install, operate or maintain the product described.

Protect yourself and others by observing all safety information. Failure to comply with instructions could result in personal injury and/or prop-

erty damage! Retain instructions for future reference.

Air compressor units are intended to

provide compressed air to power pneu-

matic tools, operate spray guns and sup-

ply air for pneumatic valves and actua-

tors. The pumps supplied with these

units have oil lubricated bearings. A

small amount of oil carryover is present

in the compressed air stream.

Applications requiring air free of oil

vapor should have the appropriate filter

installed. The air compressor units are to

be mounted per the instructions provid-

ed on a solid floor. Any other use of

these units will void the warranty and

the manufacturer will not be responsi-

ble for problems or damages resulting

from such misuse. Refer to the enclosed

“Replacement Parts Manual” to identify

compressor as single stage or two-stage.

Breathable Air Warning

This compressor/pump is NOT

equipped and should NOT be used

“as is” to supply breathing quality

air. For any application of air for

human consumption, you must fit

the air compressor/pump with suit-

able in-line safety and alarm equip-

ment. This additional equipment is

necessary to properly filter and puri-

fy the air to meet minimal specifica-

tions for Grade D breathing  as

described in Compressed Gas

Association Commodity

CFR 1910. 134, and/or Canadian

Standards Associations (CSA).

DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES

In the event the compressor is used

for the purpose of breathing air

application and proper in-line safety

and alarm equipment is not simulta-

neously used, existing warranties

are void, and Campbell Hausfeld dis-

claims any liability whatsoever for

any loss, personal injury or damage.
