DRAIN VALVE
The drain valve (H) is located at the base
of the air tank and is used to drain conden-
sation atthe end of each use. See Draining
Air Tank under Maintenance.
COOLING SYSTEM
This compressor contains an advanced design cooling system.
It is normal for this fan to blow air through the vent holes in large
amounts. The cooling system is working when air is expelled.
AIR COMPRESSOR PUMP
The pump 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.
MOTOR OVERLOAD PROTECTOR
This motor has a manual thermal overload
protector. If the motor overheats for any
reason, the overload protector will shut off
the motor. The motor must be allowed to
cool down before restarting. To restart:
1. Ensure the On/Off switch (A) is in the
OFF position.
2. Allow the motor to cool.
3. Depress the reset button (M) on the
motor.
OIL DIPSTICK
The oil dipstick (K) indicates the amount of oil in the pump. Check
pump oil daily, see Compressor Pump Oil under Maintenance.
AIR iNTAKE FILTER
The filter (N) is designed to clean air entering the pump. To ensure
the pump continually receives a clean, cool, and dry air supply the
filter must always be clean and the filter intake must be free from
obstructions.
