Cooling System (not shown):
This
compressor contains an advanced
design cooling system. At the heart of
this cooling system is an engineered
fan. It is perfectly normal for this fan
to blow air through the vent hobs
in large amounts. You know that the
cooling system is working when air is
being expelled.
Air Compressor
Pump (not shown):
Compresses air into the air tank.
Working air is not available until the
compressor has raised the air tank
pressure above that required at the
air outlet.
Check Valve:
When the air
compressor is operating,
the check
valve is "open", allowing compressed
air to enter the air tank. When the
air compressor
reaches "cut-out"
pressure, the check valve "c!oses",
allowing air pressure to remain inside
the air tank.
Check Valve
Pressure
Release Valve:
The
pressure release valve, located on
the side of the pressure switch, is
designed to automatically
release
compressed
air from the compressor
head and the outlet tube when the
air compressor
reaches "cut-out"
pressure or is shut off. The pressure
release valve allows the motor to
restart freely. When the motor stops
running, air will be heard escaping
from this valve for a few seconds.
No
air should be heard leaking when the
motor is running or after unit reaches
"cut-out"
pressure.
Air Intake Filter (not shown)
This
filter is designed to clean air coming
into the pump. This filter must
always be clean and ventilation
openings free from obstructions.

"Maintenance".

Break_in instructions
1.
Make sure the On/Auto/Off
lever
is in the "Off" position.
NOTE: If quick connect is installed,
pull coupler back until it clicks to
prevent air from escaping through the
quick connect.
2.
Plug the power cord into the
correct branch circuit receptacle.
(Refer to "Voltage and Circuit
Protection" paragraph
in the
"Installation"
section of this
manua!.)
3.
Open the drain valve fully
(counterclockwise)
to permit
air to escape and prevent air
pressure build-up in the air tank
during the break-in period.
4.
Move the On/Auto/Off
lever
to "On/Auto" position. The
compressor
will start.
5.
Run the compressor for 20
minutes. Make sure the drain
valve is open and there is
minimal air pressure build-up in
tank.
