Cut-In
Pressure:
While the motor

off, air tank pressure
drops
as you
continue
to use your accessory.
When the tank pressure
drops
to a
certain
low level the motor
will restart
automatically.
The low pressure at
which the motor automatically
restarts is called "cut-in"
pressure.
Cut-Out
Pressure:
When an air
compressor
is turned on and begins
to run, air pressure
in the air tank
begins
to build.
It builds
to a certain
high pressure before
the motor
auto-
matically
shuts off, protecting
your air
tank from pressure higher than its
capacity.
The high pressure
at which
the motor
shuts off is called "cut-out"
pressure.
