OPERATING PROCEDURES
Before attaching air hose or accessories, make sure
the OFF/AUTO lever is set to "OFF" and the air
regulator isclosed.
2. Attach hose and accessories.
6. Always operate the air compressor in well-ventilated
areas; free of gasoline or other solvent vapors.
Do not operate the compressor near the spray area.
TOO MUCH AIR PRESSURE CREATES A
HAZARDOUS RISK OF BURSTING. CARE-
FULLY FOLLOW STEPS 3AND 5 EACH TIME
THE COMPRESSOR IS USED.
Compressed air from the outfit may contain
water condensation. Do not spray unfiltered air
at an item that could be damaged. Some air
operated tools or devices may require filtered
air. Read the instructions for the air tool or
device.
3. Check the manufacturer's maximum pressure rating
for air tools and accessories. The regulator
outlet pressure must never exceed the maxi-
mum pressure rating. If your
compressor is not supplied with a regulator with
gauge, install one before using accessories.
4. Turn the OFF/AUTO lever to "AUTO" and allow tank
pressureto build. Motor will stop when tank pressure
reaches "cut-out" pressure.
5. Opentheregulatorbyturningitclockwise. Adjustthe
regulator to the correct pressure setting. Your com-
pressor is ready for use.
When you are finished:
7. Set the "OFF/AUTO" lever to "OFF".
8. Turn the regulator counterclockwise and set the
outlet pressure to zero.
9. Remove the air tool or accessory.
10. Open the regulator and allow the air to slowly bleed
from the tank. Close the regulator when tank pres-
sure is approximately 20 psi.
11. Drain water from airtank.
WATER WILL CONDENSE IN THE AIR TANK. IF
NOT DRAINED, WATER WILL CORRODE AND
WEAKEN THE AIR TANK CAUSING A RISK OF
AIR TANK RUPTURE.
With tank pressu re at approximately 20 psi, open the drain
cock or drain valve.
NOTE:
Ifdrain cock valve is plugged, release all air
pressure. The valve can then be removed,
cleaned,then reinstalled.
12. After the water has been drained, close drain cock
or drain valve. The air compressor can now be
stored.
