TO DRAIN TANk
away from outlet of drain. Use ANSI Z87.1 eye protection (CAN/CSA Z94.3)
when draining as debris can be kicked up into face. Use ear protection (ANSI
S12.6 (S3.19) hearing protection) as air flow noise is loud when draining.
NOTE: Operation of the air compressor will cause condensation to build up in the
air tank. Always drain tank on a washable surface or in a suitable container to pre-
vent damaging or staining surfaces.
1.
Set the On/Auto/Off lever to "Off".
2.
Close the globe valve.
3.
Remove the air tool or accessory.
4.
Open the globe valve and allow the air to slowly bleed from the air tank until
tank pressure is approximately 20 PSI.
5.
Close the globe valve.
6.
Drain water from air tank by opening drain valve on bottom of tank.
a risk of air tank rupture.
7.
After the water has been drained, close the drain valve. The air compressor
can now be stored.
NOTE: If drain valve is plugged, release all air pressure. The valve can then be
removed, cleaned, then reinstalled.
OIL
leave carbon deposits on critical components, thus reducing performance
and compressor life.
NOTE: Use 30W compressor oil or a heavy duty SAE 30W, non-detergent, SF
grade or better oil DO NOT use multi-weight automotive engine oils, they will
reduce compressor life. Under extreme winter condition use SAE-10 weight oil.
NOTE: Crankcase oil capacity is approximately 48 fluid ounces (1.4 L).
Checking
1.
The oil level should be to the middle of the sight glass (C).
2.
If needed remove oil fill plug (A) and slowly add oil until it reaches the middle
of the sight glass.
Changing
1.
Remove the oil fill plug (A).
2.
Remove the oil drain plug (B) and drain
oil into a suitable container.
3.
Replace the oil drain plug (B) and tight-
en securely.
4.
Slowly add compressor oil until the oil
level is in the middle of the sightglass
(C). NOTE: When filling the crankcase,
the oil flows very slowly into the pump.
If the oil is added too quickly, it will
overflow and appear to be full.

Risk of Unsafe Operation. Risk from noise. Air tanks
contain high pressure air. keep face and other body parts
Risk of Bursting. Water will condense in the air tank. If not
drained, water will corrode and weaken the air tank causing
Risk of Property Damage. Drain water from air tank may
contain oil and rust which can cause stains.
Use air compressor oil only. Multi-weight automotive engine
oils like 10W30 should not be use in air compressors. They
