Damage to equipment resulting from failure to follow this instruction will void warranty.

Break-In Procedure

Before first use of this equipment, the system must undergo a break-in operation, as described in this section.

CAUTION

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

This procedure is required before air compressor is put into service and when Check Valve or a complete Air Compressor Pump has been replaced.

1.Make sure ON - OFF switch is in OFF position (see Figure 2).

Figure 2 - Pressure Switch with ON - OFF Switch

ON - OFF Switch shown in OFF position

2.Plug power cord into grounded 120 Volt A.C. outlet (see Grounding Instructions on page 8).

3.Open Drain Valve (rotate fully counterclockwise) to prevent air pressure build-up in air tank during break-in period (see Figure 3).

OPEN position

NOTE:Always drain air tank over a washable surface or in a suitable container to prevent damaging or staining surfaces.

4.Pull ON - OFF switch to ON position. Compressor will start.

NOTE: If you hear leaking air, pull quick connect coupler back until it clicks to reset coupler valve.

5.Run compressor for 15 minutes. Make sure Drain Valve remains open.

6.After 15 minutes, close Drain Valve (rotate fully clockwise). Air tank will fill to “cut-out” pressure and compressor will stop.

NOTE: Check oil level in compressor after break-in.

The compressor has completed the break-in procedure and is ready for normal use.
