Porter-Cable CPFAC2600P Air Compressor User Manual


 
Air Compressor Pump (not shown): Compresses air into the air tank.
Working air is not available until the compressor has raised the air tank pressure
above that required at the air outlet.
Check Valve: When the air compressor is
operating, the check valve is "open”, allowing
compressed air to enter the air tank. When the
air compressor reaches "cut-out” pressure, the
check valve "closes”, allowing air pressure to
remain inside the air tank.
How to Use Your Unit
How to Stop:
1. Set the On/Auto/Off lever to "OFF".
Before First Start-up
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.
NOTE: Pull coupler back until it clicks to
prevent air from escaping through the
quick connect.
2.
Plug the power cord into the correct
branch circuit receptacle.
(Refer to
Voltage and Circuit Protection
paragraph in the Installation section
of this manual.)
3. Open the drain valve fully
(counterclockwise) to permit air to
escape and prevent air pressure
build up in the air tank during the break-in period.
4. Move the On/Auto/Off lever to "ON/AUTO" position. The compressor will
start.
5. Run the compressor for 15 minutes. Make sure the drain valve is open and
there is minimal air pressure build-up in tank.
6. After 15 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.
