This unit is capable of powering the following Accessories. The accessories are
available through the current Power and Hand Tool Catalog or full-line Sears
stores.
When the tank pressure drops to a
certain low level the motor will restart
automatically. The low pressure at
which the motor automatically
restarts is called "cut-in" pressure.
Cut-Out Pressure: When an air
compressor is turned on and begins
to run, air pressure in the air tank
begins to build. It builds to a certain
high pressure before the motor
automatically shuts off, protecting
your air tank from pressure higher
than its capacity. The high pressure
at which the motor shuts off is called
"cut-out" pressure.
Branch Circuit: Circuit carrying
electricity from electrical panel to
outlet.
Refer to the selection chart located

DUTY CYCLE
This air compressor pump is capable
of running continuously. However, to
prolong the life of your air
compressor, it is recommended that a
50%-75% average duty cycle be
maintained; that is, the air
compressor pump should not run
more than 30-45 minutes in any given
hour.
