The regulator (D) controls the air pressure shown on
the Regulated Pressure Gauge (C). Turn knob clock-
wise to increase pressure and counterclockwise to
decrease pressure. When the desired pressure is
reached turn collar under knob against knob to lock
inplace.Theregulatedpressurerangeis7–150psi.
Risk of Bursting. Too much air pres-
sure causes a hazardous risk of bursting. Check the
manufacturer’s maximum pressure rating for air tools
and accessories.
The regulator outlet pressure setting must never
exceed the maximum pressure rating of the tool or accessory.

DRAIN VALVE
The drain valve (H) is located at the base of the air tank and is used to drain condensation at the
end of each use. See Draining Air Tank under Maintenance.
COOLING SYSTEM (NOT SHOWN)
This compressor contains an advanced design cooling system. It is normal for this fan to blow
air through the vent holes in large amounts. The cooling system is working when air is expelled.
AIR COMPRESSOR PUMP
The pump 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.
AIR INTAKE FILTER

a clean, cool, and dry air supply the filter must always be clean and the filter intake must be free
from obstructions.
MOTOR OVERLOAD PROTECTOR (NOT SHOWN)
The motor has a 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/Off(A)levertoOffandunplugunit.
2. Allow the motor to cool.
3. Plug the power cord into the correct branch circuit receptacle.
