Parts Description
A.
ELECTRIC MOTOR : The motor is used to power the pump.
AIR COMPRESSOR PUMP : The pump is used to compress the air and discharge it into the tank via
the piston moving up and down in the cylinder.
B.
ON/OFF SWITCH : This switch turns on the compressor and is operated manually. When in the ON
position, it allows the compressor to start up or shut down automatically, without warning, upon air
demand. ALWAYS set this switch to OFF when the compressor is not being used, and before
unplugging the compressor.
C.
AIR LINE OUTLET : The outlet is used to connect air hose with quick connector.
D.
TANK PRESSURE GAUGE : The gauge is used to measure the store air pressure level of the tank.
It is not adjustable by the operator, and does not indicate line pressure.
E.
PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE : The valve is used to prevent system failures by relieving pressure from
the system. When the pressure reaches the preset level the pressure switch will not shut down the
motor, it will automatically pop open or you can pull the ring on the valve to open.
WARNING
Never attempt to open the drain valve when the tank pressure is more than 10 PSI.
F.
AIR TANK : The tank is used to store the compressed air.
G.
DRAIN VALVE : The drain valve is used to remove moisture from the air tank after the unit is shut off.
H.
POWER CORD : This product is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit and should be grounded. A cord
with a grounding plug must be used. Make sure the product is connected to an outlet having the same
configuration as the plug (see Figure 1). No adapter should be used with this product.
DANGER
