Grounding Instructions
This product should be grounded. In the event of an electrical
short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by
providing
an escape wire for the electric
current. This
product is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire
with an appropriate
grounding
plug. The plug must be
plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded
in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
Check
with a qualified
electrician
or service personnel
if these
instructions are not completely understood or if in doubt as
to whether the tool is properly grounded.
Improper installation of the grounding plug can result in a
risk of electric shock. If repair or replacement of the cord or
plug is necessary, do not connect the grounding wire to
either fiat blade terminal. The wire with insulation having an
outer surface that is green with or without yellow stripes is
the grounding
wire. Check with a qualified electrician
or
serviceman
if
the
grounding
instructions
are
not
completely
understood,
or if in doubt as to whether the
product is properly
grounded.
Do not modify
the plug
provided; if it will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician.
This product is for use on a circuit having a nominal rating
of 120 volts and is factory-equipped
with a specific electric
cord and plug to permit connection
to a proper electric
circuit. Make sure that the product is connected to an outlet
having the same configuration
as the plug. No adapter
should be used with this product. If the product must be
reconnected
for use on a different type of electric circuit,
qualified service personnel should make the reconnection.
Operating
Procedures
Daily Start-Up Procedures
1. Set the Auto-On/Off lever to the Off position.
2. Check the air compressor visually for any damage or
obstruction to the intake filter.
3. Close the drain valve.
4. Plug the power cord into the proper receptacle.
5. Turn the Auto-On/Off lever to the On-Auto position and
the compressor will start and build air pressure in the
tank to cut-out pressure and then shut off automatically.
6. Adjust the regulator to a PSI setting that is needed for your
application and be sure it is within the safety standards
required to perform the task. If using a pneumatic tool,
the manufacturer should have recommendations
in the
manual for that particular tool on operating PSI settings.
7. The air compressor is now ready for use.
Daily Shut-Down
Procedures
1. Set the Auto-On/Off lever to the Off position.
2. Unplug the power cord from the receptacle.
3. Set the outlet pressure to zero on the regulator.
4. Remove any air tools or accessories.
When draining the tank, always use ear and eye protection.
Drain the tank in a suitable location; condensation
will be
present in most cases of draining.
5. Open the drain valve allowing air to bleed from the tank.
After all of the air has bled from the tank, close the drain
valve to prevent debris buildup in the valve.
Water that remains in the tank during storage wilt corrode
and weaken the air tank which could cause the tank to
rupture. Please be sure to drain the tank after each use or
daily.
