To Check Safety Valve
WARNING: Risk of bursting. If the safety valve does not
work properly, over-pressurization may occur,
causing air tank rupture or an explosion.
WARNING: Risk from flying objects. Always wear
certified safety equipment: ANSI Z87.1 eye protection
(CAN/CSA Z94.3) with side shields.
Before starting compressor, pull the ring on the safety valve to
make sure that the safety valve operates freely. If the valve is
stuck or does not operate smoothly, it must be replaced with
the same type of valve.
To Drain Tank
WARNING: Risk of unsafe operation. Air tanks contain
high pressure air. Keep face and other body parts
away from outlet of drain. Use eye protection
[ANSIZ87.1 (CAN/CSAZ94.3)] when draining as debris
can be kicked up into face.
WARNING: Risk from noise. Always wear proper
hearing protection during use. Under some
conditions and duration of use, noise from this
product may contribute to hearing loss.
NOTE: All compressed air systems generate condensation that
accumulates in any drain point (e.g., tanks, filter, aftercoolers,
dryers). This condensate contains lubricating oil and/or
substances which may be regulated and must be disposed of in
accordance with local, state, and federal laws and regulations.
WARNING: Risk of bursting. 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.
NOTICE: Risk of property damage. Drain water from air tank
may contain oil and rust which can cause stains.
1. Move the Auto/Off switch to "OFF (O)".
2. Turn regulator knob counterclockwise to set the outlet
pressure to zero.
3. Pull ring on safety valve allowing air to bleed from the
tank until tank pressure is approximately 20 PSI.
Release safety valve ring.
4. Remove the air tool or accessory.
5. Place a suitable container under the drain valve
to catch discharge.
6. Drain water from air tank by opening drain valve on
bottom of tank.
7. 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.
To Check Air Intake Filter
WARNING: Hot surfaces. Risk of burn. Tubes, pump
head, and surrounding parts are very hot, do not
touch (See Hot Surfaces identification (Fig. A)). Allow
compressor to cool prior to servicing.
A dirty air filter will not allow the compressor to operate at full
capacity. Keep the air filter clean at all times.
1. Ensure Auto/Off switch is in the "OFF (O)" position.
2. Allow unit to cool.
3. Unscrew wing-nut at the center of the air filter cover
to remove.
4. Check the filter element. If it is dirty, blow
compressed air through the filter element for 10-15
seconds or replace if needed. If the filter is filled with
paint, replace it.
5. Place element into housing and reattach the air
filter cover.
CAUTION: Risk of unsafe operation. Do not operate
without air filter.
Compressor Pump Oil
NOTICE: Risk of property damage. Use air compressor oil only.
Multi-weight automotive engine oils like 10W30 should not be
used in air compressors. They leave carbon deposits on critical
components, thus reducing performance and compressor life.
NOTE: Use full synthetic, non-detergent air compressor oil.
NOTE: Crankcase oil capacity is approximately 49 fluid ounces
(1.45 liters).
To Check
WARNING: Drain tank to release air pressure before
removing the oil fill plug or oil drain plug.
1. Remove the oil fill plug (14).
2. Remove the oil drain plug (16) and drain oil into a
suitable container.
3. Replace the oil drain plug and tighten securely
4. Slowly add compressor oil until it reaches the middle
of the sight glass (15). NOTE: When filling the
crankcase, the oil flows very slowly into the pump. If the
oil is added too quickly, it will overflow and appear to
be full.
CAUTION: Overfilling with oil will cause premature
compressor failure. Do not overfill.
5. Replace oil fill plug and tighten securely.
