Before Starting
Break-in Procedure
Serious damage may result if the following break-in
instructions are not closely followed.
This procedure is required before the air compressor is put into service and
when the check valve or a complete compressor pump has been replaced.
1. Make sure the On/Auto/Off lever is in the "OFF" position.
2. Check oil level in pump. See “Oil” paragraph in the “Maintenance” section
for instructions.
3.
Plug the power cord into the correct branch circuit receptacle.
(Refer to
Voltage and Circuit Protection paragraph in the Installation section of this
manual.)
4. Open the drain valve fully (counter-clockwise) to permit air to escape and
prevent air pressure build up in the air tank during the break-in period.
5. Move the On/Auto/Off lever to "ON/AUTO" position. The compressor will
start.
6. Run the compressor for 20 minutes. Make sure the drain valve is open and
there is minimal air pressure build-up in tank.
7. After 20 minutes, close the drain valve (clockwise). The air receiver will fill
to “cut-out” pressure and the motor will stop.
The compressor is now ready for use.
Before Each Start-Up:
1. Place On/Auto/Off lever to “OFF”.
2. Pull regulator knob out, turn counter-clockwise until it stops. Push knob in
to lock in place.
3. Attach hose and accessories. NOTE: The hose or accessory will require a
quick connect plug. To use remote console, see "How to Use Remote
Console" paragraph in this section.
Too much air pressure causes a hazardous risk of
bursting. Check the manufacturer’s maximum pressure
rating for air tools and accessories. The regulator outlet pressure must
never exceed the maximum pressure rating.
