DeVillbiss Air Power Company D26368 manual How to Stop, Before Starting

Drain

Valve

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.

Cooling System (not shown): This compressor

contains an advanced design cooling system. At the heart of this cooling system is an engineered

fan. It is perfectly normal for this fan to blow air

through the vent holes in large amounts. You know that the cooling system is working when air is being expelled.

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.

Check Valve: When the air compressor is
operating, the check valve is “open”, allowing
compressed air to enter the air tank. When the air
	Check Valve
compressor reaches “cut-out” pressure, the check
valve “closes”, allowing air pressure to remain inside
the air tank.
Pressure Release Valve: The pressure release
valve located on the side of the pressure switch, is
designed to automatically release compressed air

from the compressor head and the outlet tube when	Pressure
the air compressor reaches “cut-out” pressure or is	Release
shut off. The pressure release valve allows the motor to	Valve
restart freely. When the motor stops running, air will be
heard escaping from this valve for a few seconds. No
air should be heard leaking when the motor is running,
or continuous leaking after unit reaches “cut-out”
pressure.

Motor Overload Protector: The motor has an

automatic reset thermal overload protector. If the motor overheats for any reason, the overload protector will shut off the motor. The motor must be allowed to cool down before restarting. The compressor will automatically restart after the motor cools.

How to Use Your Unit

How to Stop:

1.Set the On/Auto/Off lever to “OFF”.

2.Unplug compressor.

Before Starting

Break-in instructions

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: If quick connect is installed, 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.)
