Motor
This motor has a manual thermal overload protector. If the motor overheats for
any reason, the overload protector will shut off the motor. The motor must be
allowed to cool down before restarting. To restart:
1. Set the On/Auto/Off lever in the Off position.
2. Allow the motor to cool.
3. Depress the red reset button on the motor.
4. Set the On/Auto/Off lever in the On/Auto
postion to restart the motor.
IMPORTANT: If the overload protector shuts the
motor off frequently, check for a possible
voltage problem. Low voltage can also be
suspected when:
1. The motor does not get up to full power or speed.
2. Fuses blow out when starting the motor; lights dim and remain dim when
motor is started and is running.
Additional Service
Disassembly or service of the air compressor beyond what is covered in this

STORAGE
Before you store the air compressor, make sure you do the following:
1. Review the "Maintenance" section on the preceding pages and perform
scheduled maintenance as necessary.
2. Set the On/Auto/Off lever to "OFF".
3. Close the globe valve.
4. Remove the air tool or accessory.
5. Open the globe valve and allow the air to slowly bleed from the air tank
until tank pressure is approximately 20 psi.
6. Close the globe valve.
7. Drain water from air tank by opening drain valve (counter-clockwise) on
bottom of tank.
Water will condense in the air tank. If not drained, water
will corrode and weaken the air tank causing a risk of air
tank rupture.
8. After the water has been drained, close the drain or drain valve.
NOTE: If drain valve is plugged, release all air pressure. The valve can then be
removed, cleaned, then reinstalled.
9. Protect the air hose from damage (such as being stepped on or run over).
