14 Portable Electric Air Compressor Manual
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
START-UP:
1. Read safety warnings before performing operation.
2. Ensure the Motor/Pressure Switch is in the "OFF" position.
3. Plug the Power Cord into a grounded outlet.
4. Move the Motor/Pressure Switch to the "AUTO" position.
AX- OPTION: Locate the adjustment knob at the top of the Pilot Valve.
-Turn it completely clockwise to the fully closed position. This will allow
the air compressor to start building up pressure in the air tanks and stop
when correct pressure is achieved. When pressure drops with usage,
the air compressor will start building up pressure again.
-Turn it completely counterclockwise to the fully open position. The air
compressor is now set up to "CONSTANTLY" build up pressure. When
pressure reaches the preset level in the air tank, pressure will bleed
through the Pilot Valve.
5. Set pressure by adjusting the Pressure Regulator counterclockwise for
less pressure and clockwise for more pressure.
6. If you notice any unusual noise or vibration, stop the air compressor and
refer to "Troubleshooting".
SHUTDOWN:
1. To stop the air compressor, move the Motor/Pressure Switch to the "OFF"
position. NEVER stop the air compressor by unplugging it from the
power source. This could result in risk of electrocution.
2. Drain air from the air tanks by releasing air with an attached air tool or
by pulling on the Safety Relief Valve.
3. Once the Air Tank Pressure Gauge registers under 10 pounds, open the
Air Tank Drain Valve under each air tank to drain any moisture.
4. Allow the air compressor to cool down.
5. Wipe the air compressor clean and store in a safe, non-freezing area.
