1. Before attaching air hose or accessories, make sure
the OFF/AUTO lever is set to “OFF” and the air
regulator or shut-off valve is closed.
2. Attach hose and accessories.
TOO MUCH AIR PRESSURE CAUSES A HAZARD-
OUS RISK OF BURSTING. CHECK THE MANU-
FACTURER'S MAXIMUM PRESSURE RATING
FOR AIR TOOLS AND ACCESSORIES. THE REGU-
LATOR OUTLET PRESSURE MUST NEVER EX-
CEED THE MAXIMUM PRESSURE RATING. ON
MODELS HAVING ONLY A SHUT-OFF VALVE,
YOU MUST INSTALL A REGULATOR BEFORE
USING ACCESSORIES RATED AT LESS THAN
125 PSIG.
3. Turn the OFF/AUTO lever to “AUTO” and allow tank
pressure to build. Motor will stop when tank pressure
reaches “cut-out” pressure.
4. Open the regulator by turning it clockwise. Adjust the
regulator to the correct pressure setting. Your com-
pressor is ready for use.
5. Always operate the air compressor in well-ventilated
areas; free of gasoline or other solvent vapors. Do not
operate the compressor near a paint spray area.
When you are finished:
6. Set the “OFF/AUTO” lever to “OFF”.
7. Turn the regulator counterclockwise and set the
outlet pressure to zero.
8. Remove the air tool or accessory.
9. Open the regulator and allow the air to slowly bleed
from the tank. Close the regulator when tank pres-
sure is approximately 20 psi.
10. Drain water from air tank by opening drain valve
underneath the tank.
11. After the water has been drained, close the drain
valve. The air compressor can now be stored.
NOTE
If drain valve is plugged, release all air
pressure. The valve can then be removed,
cleaned, then reinstalled.
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.
This procedure is required:
1. Before the air compressor is put into service.
2. When the check valve is replaced.
a. Set the pressure switch lever to the "OFF"
position.
Serious damage may result if the fol-
lowing break-in instructions are not
closely followed.
Break-in Procedures
b. Plug the power cord into the correct branch
circuit receptacle.
c. Turn the drain valve clockwise, opening it fully, to
prevent air pressure build-up in the tank.
d. Move the pressure switch lever to "ON/AUTO".
The compressor will start.
e. Run the compressor for 15 minutes. Make sure
the drain valve is open and there is little tank
pressure build-up.
f. After 15 minutes, close the drain valve by turning
counterclockwise. The air receiver will fillto cut-
out pressure and the motor will stop. The
compressor is now ready for use.
