APPLICATIONS
Air compressors are utilized in a variety of air system applications.
Match
hoses,
connectors,
air tools,
and accessories
to the
capabilities of the air compressor.
You may use this tool for purposes listed below:
Operating air powered tools requiring tess than
1.8 SCFM @ 90 PSI or 2.6 SCFM @ 40 PSI.
Powering pneumatic nail guns, inflating tires, cleaning /
blowing with pressurized air.
HOW TO USE YOUR AIR COMPRESSOR
See figures 6 - 7.
Do not allow familiarity with tools to make
you careless. Remember that a careless fraction of a second
is sufficient to inflict serious injury.
_
Atways wear safety goggles or safety
glasses with side shields when operating power tools. Failure
to do so could result in objects being thrown into your eyes
resulting in possible serious injury.
Do not use in an environment that is dusty or
otherwise contaminated.
Using the air compressor in this type
of environment
may cause damage to the unit.
Ensure the tank drain valve is closed (see fig. 6).
Ensure the ON/OFF switch is in the OFF (O) position and the
air compressor is unplugged (see fig. 6).
Ensure the pressure regulator knob is turned fully
counterclockwise
(see fig. 6).

If not already installed, attach the hose to the compressor.
• Apply thread sealing tape to male threaded end of the male
connector fitting. Attach 1/4 in. NPT male connector fitting to
accessory or tool you intend to use (see fig. 7).

Connect the air powered tools to the air hose by inserting the
male quick-connect
plug to the quick-coupler
at the end of the
hose (see fig. 7).
_
Always ensure the switch is in the OFF
(O) position and the regulator pressure gauge reads zero
before changing air tools or disconnecting the hose from the
air outlet. Failure to do so could result in possible serious
personal injury.
Connect the power cord to the power supply.
• Turn the ON/OFF switch to the ON (I) position.
Rotate the pressure regulator knob to the desired line
pressure. Turning the knob clockwise increases air pressure
at the outlet; turning the knob counterclockwise
reduces air
pressure at the outlet.
NOTE: Before connecting or disconnecting
air tools, turn the
regulator knob counterclockwise
to stop the flow of air.
Following all safety precautions in this manual and the
manufacturer's
instructions in the air tool manual. You may
now use your air-powered tool.
If using an inflation accessory with a quick-connect
fitting,
control the amount of air flow with the pressure regulator knob.
Turning the knob fully counterclockwise
will completely stop
the flow of air.
NOTE: Always use the minimum amount of pressure
necessary for your application. Using a higher pressure than
needed will drain air from the tank more rapidly and cause the
unit to cycle on more frequently.
• When finished, always drain the tank and unplug the unit.
Never leave the unit plugged in and/or running unattended.
Check the air tool manual to insure the
correct air pressure regulator setting for optimum operation of
your air tools. If you are using an air tool not originally included
with the air toot kit supplied with this air compressor, your tool
may require more air consumption than this air compressor is
designed to supply.
Always read your air tool owner's manual to match the correct
air supply to your air tool to avoid damage to the tool or risk of
personal injury.
