Before Starting

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.

Drain Valve: The drain valve is located at the base of the air tank and is used to drain condensation at the end of each use.

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 "closes", allowing air pressure to remain inside the air tank.

How to Use Your Unit

How to Stop:

1.Set the On/Auto/Off lever to "OFF".

Break-in Procedure

Risk of Unsafe Operation. Serious

damage may result if the following break-in instructions are not closely followed.

This procedure is required before the air compressor is put into service and when the check valve or a complete compressor pump has been replaced.

1.Make sure the On/Auto/Off lever is in the "OFF" position.

NOTE: 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 manual.)

3.Open the drain valve fully to permit air to escape and

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 15 minutes. Make sure the drain valve is open and there is minimal air pressure build-up in tank.

6.After 15 minutes, close the drain valve. The air receiver will fill to "cut-out" pressure and the motor will stop.
