Starting the compressor
WARNING: Risk of bursting. If any unusual noise or
vibration is noticed, stop the air compressor immediately
and have it checked by a trained service technician.
NOTE: When using regulator and other accessories refer
to the manufacturers instructions.
□
Plug the power cord into a proper receptacle.
□
Turn the ON (I) / OFF (O) switch (3) to the "ON"
position, and allow the tank pressure to build.
The motor will stop when the tank pressure
reaches "cut-out" pressure.
□
Adjust the regulator (4) to a PSI setting that
is needed for your application - be sure it
is within the safety standards required to
perform the task.

Checking the safety valve
DANGER: Do not tamper with the safety valve. Items
loosened from this device could fly up and hit you. Failure
to heed this warning could result in death or serious
personal injury. The safety valve automatically releases air
when the receiver pressure exceeds the preset maximum.
Check the valve before each day of use by pulling the ring
by hand.
WARNING: If air leaks after releasing the safety valve
ring or if the valve is stuck, do not use the air compressor
until the safety valve has been replaced. Using the air
compressor in this condition could result in serious
personal injury.
WARNING: Risk from noise. Use ear protection (ANSI
S12.6 (S3.19) as air flow noise is loud when draining.
□
Set the ON (I) / OFF (O) switch (5) to the "ON"
position, and wait for the tank to fill. The
compressor automatically shuts off when the
pressure reaches the preset maximum.
□
Set the ON (I) / OFF (O) switch (5) to the
"OFF" position.
□
Pull the ring on the safety valve (6) until air
discharges from tank, release ring.
□
Air should stop discharging with 20-90 PSI
remaining in tank. If safety valve does not
allow air to be released when you pull out the
ring, or does not close automatically, it must
be replaced. Discontinue use and seek service
before using air compressor again.
