High pressure air could
result in death or serious injury. Shut off unit,
unplug and release air pressure prior to
servicing.
High pressure air
containning water condensation could
result in minor or moderate injury. Do
not spray at any person.
Risk of serious eye injury
from moisture and debris. Always wear ANSI
Z87.1 safety goggles when opening tank drain.
Operating Instructions
WARNING:
WARNING:
CAUTION:
5. Set the power switch to the ON position
and allow the tank pressure to build. Motor
will stop when tank pressure reaches cut-out
pressure(Fig H).
Shut down
1. Set the power switch (1) to the OFF
position.
2. Unplug the power cord (2).
3. Reduce the pressure in the tank through
the outlet hose. Pulling the safety valve ring
(3) and keeping it open will also reduce the
pressure in the tank(fig. I).
4.Set tank drain (4) (fig. I) to OFF to
ensure tank is drained.

Drain the tank
1. Set the power switch to the O (OFF)
position.
2. Turn air pressure regulator knob
counter-clockwise to set the outlet pressure
to zero.
3. Pull and hold ring on safety valve, allowing
air to bleed from the tank until air pressure is
minimized.
4. Place a suitable container under the unit to
catch any water.
5. Slightly tilt unit and turn tank drain counter-
clockwise to open.
6. After the water has been drained,close
the tank drain (clockwise). The air compressor
can now be stored.
4. Close the tank drain (1) . Plug-in
the power cord(2) (FIG. G).

Check that all connections are tight. Small leaks in the tank,
hoses,connections or transfer tubes will substantially reduce the
air compressor and tool performance. Spray a small amount of
soapy water around the area of suspected leaks with a spray
bottle. If bubbles appear, repair: replace or reseal the faulty
component. Do not over-tighten any connections.
Before storing the air compressor compressor:
Drain tank (page 12).
Use an air blow gun to clean all dust and debris from the
pressor.
Disconnect and wind up the power cord.
Clean the ventilation openings on the motor enclosure with
a damp cloth.
Drain all moisture from the tank.
Pull the pressure safety valve to release all pressure from the
tank.
Cover the entire unit to protect it from moisture and dust.
Store the air compressor in a cl
ean and dry location.
In cold weather, store the compressor in a warm building when
it is not in use. This will reduce problems related to starting the
motor and the freezing of water condensation.
Pull/actiate the safety valve daily to ensure that it is operating
properly and to clear the valve of any possible obstructions.
DESCRIPTION / REASON
SERVICE
INTERVAL
ITEM
Through normal operation of your air compressor,
conndensation water will accumulate in the tank. To prevent
corrosion of the tank from the inside, condensation must be
drained at the end of every workday. Be sure to wear protective
goggles. Relieve the air pressure in
the system then open the
tank drain on the bottom of the tank to drain. Under cold
conditions it is especially important to drain the tank after each
use to reduce the chance of problems resulting from the freezing
of condensation water.
NOTE: Refer to instructions on how to drain tank (page 12).
