Machine Component Identification
1
1.) Air Filter - Make sure your air filter is clean and
particle free.
2.) Belt Guard - Covers the belt, motor pulley and
12
flywheel. NEVER operate compressor without the
11
belt guard or guard cover.

4.) Ball Valve - 1/2" NPT outlet.
5.) Pressure Gauge - Easy to read gauge.
10
6.) Mount Feet - Use an isolation pad system to
increase your compressor life.
7.) Remote Drain Petcock - This valve is located on
the foot ring of the tank. Use this valve to drain
moisture from the tank daily to reduce the risk of
corrosion.
8.) ASME Safety Valve - This valve automatically
9
releases air if the tank pressure exceeds the preset
maximum.
8
9.) Unloader - Device on pressure switch which
allows release of pressurized air between the tank
and compressor so motor does not start under load.
10.) Pressure Switch - Auto/Off Switch - In the
"auto" position, the compressor shuts off
automatically when tank pressure reached the
maximum preset pressure. In the "off" position, the
4
compressor will not operate. This switch should be
in the "off" position when connecting or
5
disconnecting the power cord from the electrical
outlet. NEVER attempt to adjust the pressure switch.
Tampering with the pressure switch will void ALL
warranties.
11.) Check Valve - One-way valve that allows air to
enter the tank, but prevents air in the tank from
flowing back into the compressor pump.
12.) Discharge Tube - This tube carries
compressed air from the pump to the check valve.
This tube becomes very hot during use. To avoid
the risk of severe burns, never touch the discharge
tube.
