lubricated compressor must be connected to an oil supply
line of at least 15 P.S.I. pressure during the test and an oil
return line must be installed to keep the crankcase drained.
Connect to the compressor discharge port, a reservoir with
a volume of 1500 cubic inches, including the volume of
connecting line. With the compressor operating at 2100
R.P.M., the time required to raise the reservoir(s) pressure
from 85 P.S.I. to 100 P.S.I. should not exceed 7 seconds.
During this test, the compressor should be checked for
gasket leakage and noisy operation, as well as unloader
operation and leakage.
INSPECTION OF REBUILT UNIT
Check to be sure that covers, plugs, or masking tape are
used to protect all ports if compressor is not to be installed
immediately. Fit the end of all crankshafts with keys, nuts,
and cotter pins as required and then protect the ends against
damage by wrapping with masking tape or friction tape. The
open bottom of a vertical engine lubricated compressors
should be protected against the entrance of dirt during
handling or storage, by installing a temporary cover over the
base.
IMPORTANT! PLEASE READ:
When working on or around a vehicle, the following
general precautions should be observed:
1. Park the vehicle on a level surface, apply the park-
ing brakes, and always block the wheels.
2. Stop the engine when working around the vehicle.
3. If the vehicle is equipped with air brakes, make
certain to drain the air pressure from all reservoirs
before beginning any work on the vehicle.
4. Following the vehicle manufacturer’s recom-
mended procedures, deactivate the electrical
system in a manner that removes all electrical
power from the vehicle.
5. When working in the engine compartment the en-
gine should be shut off. Where circumstances
require that the engine be in operation, extreme
caution should be used to prevent personal injury
resulting from contact with moving, rotating, leak-
ing, heated, or electrically charged components.
6. Never connect or disconnect a hose or line con-
taining pressure; it may whip. Never remove a
component or plug unless you are certain all sys-
tem pressure has been depleted.
7. Never exceed recommended pressures and always
wear safety glasses.
8. Do not attempt to install, remove, disassemble or
assemble a component until you have read and
thoroughly understand the recommended proce-
dures. Use only the proper tools and observe all
precautions pertaining to use of those tools.
9. Use only genuine Bendix replacement parts, com-
ponents, and kits. Replacement hardware, tubing,
hose, fittings, etc. should be of equivalent size,
type, and strength as original equipment and be
designed specifically for such applications and
systems.
10. Components with stripped threads or damaged
parts should be replaced rather than repaired. Re-
pairs requiring machining or welding should not
be attempted unless specifically approved and
stated by the vehicle or component manufacturer.
11. Prior to returning the vehicle to service, make cer-
tain all components and systems are restored to
their proper operating condition.
