To start the air compressor:
1. Make sure the compressor switch is in the OFF position (lever with red cap above pressure gauges shown in Figure 4) before connecting to the power supply.
Figure 4. ON/OFF lever.
2. Close the drain valve, shown in Figure 5, so the tank can build up pressure.
Figure 5. Drain valve location.
3. Double check the oil level to make sure it is at the proper height.
4. Connect the compressor to the power supply.
5. Flip the switch to the ON position (where it reads AUTO).
STARTING
Check the pressure gauge to see that the tank pressure climbs to approximately 100- 115 PSI or around 8 BAR, then automati- cally turns off.
NoteÑIf the compressor does not auto- matically kick off, flip the ON/OFF switch to OFF before pressure gets too high. See the Pressure Regulator section.
