General Operating Procedure
1. If the unit is installed inside an enclosure, open the door or cover
completely and secure it in the open position to provide proper
ventilation.
2. Check the oil level in the sight glass.
3. Open the hydraulic shut-off valve (if equipped) and engage the hydraulic
system.

pre-heat it by circulating hydraulic oil through the system
• below 5°F (-15°C); install a cold climate kit (A700146)
• do not allow ice or snow to build up around the air filter and inlet control
valve
Hot Weather Operation
Thermal protection will prevent operation if the temperature is too high:
• above 100°F (37°C); reduce the compressor duty cycle
Hydraulic Oil
Use hydraulic oil that is correctly rated for the operational temperature range
of the equipment for your envronment.
