2. Plug in the power cord (J).
3. Set the ON/OFF switch (I) to the I (on) position and allow tank pressure to build. Motor will stop
when tank pressure reaches "cut-out" pressure.
4. Turn the air pressure regulator (D) clockwise until desired pressure is reached.
5. The compressor is ready for use.
WARNING
High temperatures are generated by the electric motor
and the pump. To prevent burns or other injuries,
DO NOT touch the compressor while it is running.
