Chapter 4 - Start-Up & Operation
Initial Inspection
All air compressors have been inspected carefully before leaving the
factory. It is possible that poor handling during transport caused some
damage to the compressor. Fully inspect the compressor before use.
1. Inspect the entire unit for any concealed and/or visible damage.
2. Make sure any damaged parts are replaced and any mechani-
cal issues are repaired by a qualified and licensed/certified
mechanic.
Pre-Start Checklist
1. Make sure that the ON/OFF switch is in the OFF position.
2. Make sure that the tank is fully drained.
3. Make sure that the tank pressure gauge reads 0 PSI.
4. Make sure that the drain valves are closed.
5. Make sure that all covers and safety guards are properly
installed and in place.
Initial Break-In Procedure
The following instructions should be followed before the first time the
compressor is operated in order to optimize the life of the compressor
and to help prevent any damage to the unit.
1. Make sure the regulator knob is turned counter-clockwise.
2. Plug the power cord into a properly grounded power outlet.
3. Open the drain valve in order to allow air to escape and prevent
pressure from building up inside the tank.
4. Turn the ON/OFF switch to the ON position.
5. Allow the compressor to run for approximately 15 minutes.
6. Close the drain valve, allowing pressure to build to the cut-out
pressure. The compressor will shut off automatically.
7. Use the compressed air in the tank with an approved
attachment or allow it to bleed out.
