INSTALLATION

IMPORTANT NOTICE

Abide by all applicable state, local and regulations when mounting and

installing the compressor. Failure to do so may result in injury or death

and will void the manufacturer’s warranty. Contact your local government

for more information.

CAUTION!

Improper lifting can result in component or system damage or personal injury.

Follow good shop practices and safety procedures when moving the unit.

Receiving

mmediately upon receipt of compressor equipment and prior to completely uncrating, the

following steps should be taken:

1. Inspect compressor equipment for damage that may have occurred during shipment. If any

damage is found, demand an inspection from the carrier. Ask the carrier how to file a claim

for shipping damages. (Refer to FREIGHT DAMAGE for complete details.) Shipping

damage is not covered by FS Curtis’s compressor warranty.

2. Ensure that adequate lifting equipment is available for moving the compressor equipment

and clear a path to the installation location to avoid damage to property or compressor.

3. Turn off & lock out the electrical disconnect switch before working on the unit to prevent the

unit from starting unexpectedly.

4. Read the compressor nameplate to verify the model and size ordered.

5. Read the motor nameplate to be sure the motor is compatible with your electrical conditions

(volts, phase, and hertz).

6. Read the pressure relief valve nameplate to be sure it does not exceed the working

pressure of the compressor or any other component in the system.

7. Read and understand the safety precautions contained within this manual. The successful

and efficient operation of compressor equipment depends largely upon the amount of care

taken to install and maintain the equipment. FS Curtis strongly recommends that any or all

person(s) in charge of installing, maintaining, or servicing one of our compressors read and

understand the entire

contents of this manual and the respective compressor installation

and operating instruction manual in order to perform such duties safely and efficiently.

8. Remove all packing plastic, foam and shipping related materials.
