Installation (Continued)
Do not use a
grounding adapter
with this product!
2. If repair or replacement of cord or
plug is necessary, do not connect
grounding wire to either flat blade
terminal. The wire with insulation
having an external surface that
is green (with or without yellow
stripes) is the grounding wire.
Never connect
green (or green and
yellow) wire to a live terminal.
3. Check with a qualified electrician or
serviceman if grounding instructions
are not completely understood, or
if in doubt as to whether product is
properly grounded. Do not modify
plug provided; if it will not fit outlet,
have proper outlet installed by a
qualified electrician.
Overheating, short
circuiting and fire
damage will result from inadequate
wiring, etc.
Operation
DEFINITION OF TERMS
Regulator - The regulator controls the
amount of air pressure released at the
hose outlet.
ASME Safety Valve - This valve
automatically releases air if the tank
pressure exceeds the preset maximum.
Handle - Designed to move the
compressor.
Drain Valve - This valve is located on
the bottom of the tank. Use this valve
to drain moisture from the tank daily to
reduce the risk of corrosion.
Reduce tank pressure below 10 psi, then
drain moisture from tank daily to avoid
tank corrosion. Drain moisture from
tank by opening the drain valve located
underneath the tank.
LUBRICATION
This is an oilless product and DOES NOT
require lubrication to operate.
BEFORE FIRST START-UP
BREAK-IN PROCEDURE

and run compressor for 5 minutes.
5. Turn on/off switch to OFF position.
6. Unplug power cord.
The compressor is now ready for use.
BEFORE EACH START-UP
OPERATING PROCEDURE
1. Turn regulator knob fully
counterclockwise (to the left) to
close air flow.
2. Connect air hose to outlet of
regulator.
3. Turn on/off switch to OFF position.
4. Plug in power cord.
5. Turn on/off switch to ON position
and let compressor run until it
reaches automatic shutoff pressure.
6. Attach tire chuck or tool to end of
hose.
7. Turn regulator knob clockwise (to
the right) to desired pressure of tool
being used.
ON/OFF CYCLING OF COMPRESSOR
In the ON position, the compressor
pumps air into the tank. When a
shut-off (preset “cut-out”) pressure is
reached, the compressor automatically
shuts off.
