AIR TANK DRAIN VALVES
The drain valve (J) is used to remove
moisture from the air tank after the air
compressor is shut off.
AIR TANK PRESSURE GAUGE
The air tank pressure gauge (D) indicates air pressure in the air tank.
REGULATED PRESSURE GAUGE
The regulated pressure gauge (E) indicates
the air pressure available at the outlet side of
the regulator. This pressure is controlled by
the regulator and is always less or equal to
the air tank pressure.
REGULATOR
The regulator knob (F) controls the air
pressure coming from the air tank.
To Adjust Regulator:
1. Pull regulator knob (F) out to unlock.
2. Turn knob clockwise to increase regulated pressure and
counterclockwise to decrease regulated pressure.
3. When desired pressure is shown on the regulated pressure
gauge push knob in to lock.
WARNING: Risk of Bursting. Too much air pressure causes a
hazardous risk of bursting. Check the manufacturer's maximum
pressure rating for air tools and accessories. The regulator
outlet pressure must never exceed the maximum pressure
rating.
THROTTLE CONTROL
When maxi mum air tank pres sure is reached and the unloader valve
vents air, it activates the throttle control on the engine. This gas
saving feature holds the engine at a factory-set idling speed until air
pressure in the air tank drops to reset pressure. The unloader valve
then reactivates the throttle control and accelerates the engine to
full throttle.

LOW OIL SHUT DOWN SENSORS
The air compressor engine is equipped with low oil shutdown
sensors. These are safety devices designed to protect your engine
from damage in the event the oil level in the crankcase is below
minimum.
If the oil in engine gets low while the air compressor is running it will
automatically shut down the engine and will not restart until oil is
added to the engine. If the oil is low before start-up, the engine will
not start until oil is added.
NOTE: The low oil shutdown sensors are very sensitive. You
E

D
must fill the engine to the full mark on the dipstick to inactivate
this safety device.
INSTALLATION
Assembly (Fig. 1)
INSTALLING HOSES
WARNING: Risk of unsafe operation. Firmly grasp hose in hand
when installing or disconnecting to prevent hose whip.
1. Ensure regulated pressure gauge reads 0 psi.
2. Apply sealant tape to hose threads.
3. Assemble hose to air outlet (G).
NOTICE: Do not assemble splitters directly to the air
outlet (G).
NOTE: Assembling quick connect bodies to air outlet (G) and quick
connect plugs to hose ends make connecting and disconnecting
hoses simple and easy. Quick connect bodies and plugs are
available for purchase from your local dealer or authorized service
