OPERATION

Add Oil

1. Place the compressor on a flat,level surface.
2. Remove and discard the shipping cap.Using an oil funnel,
slowly fill pump with oil to notch on dipstick (See
Figure 1).
3. Insert the dipstick.and check oil level. Oil level should be
at the notch in the dipstick.Replace dipstick.

Break-In Procedure

Before first use of this equipment,the system must undergo a
break-in operation,as described in this section.
1. Make sure ON - OFF switch is in OFFposition (see
Figure 2).
2. Plug power cord into grounded 120 Volt AC outlet (see
Grounding Instructions on page 8).
3. Open both drain valves (rotate fully counterclockwise) to
prevent air pressure build-up in air tank during break-in
period (see Figure 3).
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(s)
back until it clicks to reset coupler valve.
5. Run compressor for 15 minutes.Make sure both drain
valves remain open.
6. After 15 minutes,close both drain valves (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.
