• Ensure the environment is dry and dust free.

• Ensure there is adequate ventilation for:

a) Air intake to compressor

b) Cooling for compressor pump

c) Engine exhaust gases.

B. Engine

Check oil and fuel levels and

a visual check of components. Refer to engine service manual.

C. Pump

• Check

oil level on the Dipstick - to level marked.

D. Fuelling

fuel. If fuel is spilled it must be removed from the unit and surrounding area, before

attempting to start the engine.

NOTE: Quick fit nuts are provided. These may be removed if a 1/4”BSP is required.

• Attach the air tool/spray gun to the air hose...If using snap couplings, use

a whip end, available from your Clarke dealer.
