Pressure Release Valve: The
pressure release valve, located on
the side of the pressure switch, is
designed to automatically release
compressed air from the compres-
sor head and the outlet tube when
the air compressor reaches "cut-out"
pressure or is shut off. The pressure
release valve allows the motor to
restart freely. When the motor stops
running, air will be heard escaping
from this valve for a few seconds.
No air should be heard leaking when
the motor is running, or continuous
leaking after unit reaches "cut-out"
pressure.
Motor Overload Protector (not
shown): The motor has an automatic
reset 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. The
compressor will automatically restart
after the motor cools.
Air Intake Filter (not shown) This
filter is designed to clean air coming
into the pump. This filter must always
be clean and ventilation openings free
from obstructions. See Maintenance.
HOW TO USE YOUR UNIT
How to Stop:
1.
Set the On/Auto/Off lever to "Off".
Before Starting
and understand this instruction
manual for safety, operation and
maintenance instructions.
Break-in Procedure
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.

Do not operate this
unit until you read
Risk of Property
Damage. Serious
1.
Make sure the On/Auto/Off lever is
in the "Off" position.
2.
Recheck all wiring. Make sure
wires are secure at all terminals
connections. Make sure all con-
tacts move freely and are not
obstructed.
3.
Open the globe valve fully to per-
mit 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 compres-
sor will start.
5.
Run the compressor for 15 min-
utes. Make sure the globe valve
is open and there is minimal air
pressure build-up in tank.
6.
Check all air line fittings and con-
nections/piping for air leaks by
applying a soap solution. Correct
if necessary. NOTE: Minor leaks
can cause the air compressor to
overwork, resulting in premature
breakdown or inadequate perfor-
mance.
7.
Check for excessive vibration.
Readjust or shim air compressor
feet, if necessary.
8.
After 15 minutes, close the globe
valve. The air receiver will fill to
"cut-out" pressure and the motor
will stop.
Before Each Start-Up:
1.
Place On/Auto/Off lever to "Off".
2.
Close the globe valve.
3.
Attach hose and accessories.
NOTE: A regulator MUST be
installed when using accessories
rated at less than 175 psi.
grasp air hose in hand when
installing or disconnecting to
prevent hose whip.
use damaged or worn accessories.
