OPERATING PROCEDURES
1.Before plugging in the air compressor, set the adjust- able pressure valve to "10" PSI. Make sure the "ON/ OFF" switch is in the "OFF" position.
2.Connect the air tool or accessory to the air hose. Tighten securely.
3.Plug the power cord into the grounded outlet.
4.Start the compressor by setting the "ON/OFF" switch to the "ON" position.
5.Check the manufacturer's maximum pressure rating for the air tool, accessory or vehicle tire being used. The air compressor outlet pressure must never ex- ceed the maximum pressure rating.
6.Slowly increase the pressure setting of the adjustable pressure valve. You should be able to hear and feel air pressure being relieved by the adjustable pressure valve. If pressure is not being relieved, turn the air compressor off immediately. The pressure valve must be replaced.
TOO MUCH AIR PRESSURE COULD CAUSE AN AIR TOOL OR VEHICLE TIRE TO RUPTURE OR EXPLODE. CAREFULLY FOLLOW STEPS 5 AND 6 EACH TIME YOU USE YOUR COMPRESSOR.
Compressed air from the outfit may contain water condensation. Do not spray unfiltered air at an item that could be damaged by moisture. Some air operated tools or devices may require filtered air. Read the instructions for the air tool or device.
STORAGE
When you have finished using the air compressor:
1.Set the "ON/OFF" switch to "OFF" and unplug the cord.
2.Relieve all pressure from the air compressor head and air hose by setting the adjustable pressure valve to 10 P.S.I.
3.Drain water from air tank.
4.After the water has been drained, close the drain cock or drain valve.
5.Protect the electrical cord and air hose from damage by winding them loosely around the air compressor.
6.Store the air compressor in a clean and dry location.
