power and possible
overheating, use additional air hose
instead of extension cords to reach
work area.
1. Use only an extension cord that has a
receptacle that will accept plug on
product.
2. Make sure extension cord is in good
condition, and heavy enough to carry
the current. An undersized cord will
cause a drop in line voltage resulting
in loss of power and overheating.
3. Table below shows correct size to use
depending on cord length and
nameplate ampere rating. If in
doubt, use next heavier gauge.
NOTE: The smaller the gauge number,
the heavier the cord.
Operation
BREAK-IN PROCEDURE
Do not attach air
chuck or other tool
to open end of hose until start-up has
been completed and unit checks OK.
IMPORTANT: Do not operate
compressor before reading instructions
or damage may result.
1. With power switch OFF, turn
regulator knob fully
counterclockwise to minimum
operating pressure.
2. While unit is still OFF, plug in power
cord.
3. Turn switch to ON position and run
unit for 5 minutes to break in the
pump parts.

(Con't)
Moisture in compressed air will form into droplets as it comes from an air
compressor pump. When humidity is high or when a compressor is in continuous
use for an extended period of time, this moisture will collect in the tank. When
using a paint spray or sandblast gun, this water will be carried from the tank
through the hose, and out of the gun as droplets mixed with the spray material.
IMPORTANT: This condensation will cause water spots in a paint job,
especially when spraying other than water based paints. If sandblasting, it will
cause the sand to cake and clog the gun, rendering it ineffective. A filter in
the air line (MP3105), located as near to the gun as possible, will help
eliminate this moisture.
4. Attach chuck or other tool to open
end of hose. The compressor is now
ready to use.
position when connecting or
disconnecting the power cord from the
electrical outlet.
REGULATOR
1. This regulator controls air pressure to
the hose and attachment.
2. Turning knob clockwise increases air
pressure at outlet.
3. Turning counterclockwise will lower
air pressure at outlet.
Using Selector Guide
The pressure regulator on the unit is
used to control the air pressure output.
A low number, such as 10, indicates low
pressure. A high number, such as 100,
indicates high pressure.
The selector guide is located on top of
the unit for convenience. Locate the
number across from the desired usage.
For example: To inflate a basketball,
the pressure setting is 5 - 15. Turn the
regulator until gauge reads the desired
pressure. Inflate the ball. The unit will
automatically "bleed off" any excess
pressure after the ball is inflated.
guide. Overinflating is possible
regardless of the suggested regulator
setting. Some variance may be
necessary. Always try the lowest
suggested number first. If desired
results are not achieved, use the next
