Pressure Switch: The pressure switch automatically starts the motor when the air tank pressure drops below the factory set "cut-in" pressure. It stops the motor when the air tank pressure reaches the factory set "cut-out" pressure.

Safety Valve: If the pressure switch

does not shut off the air compressor Safety ValveGlobe Valve at its "cut-out" pressure setting, the

safety valve will protect against high

pressure by "popping out" at its factory set pressure (slightly higher than the pressure switch "cut-out" setting).

Tank Pressure Gauge: The tank pressure gauge indicates the reserve air pressure in the tank.

Globe Valve: Opens and closes air discharge valve. Turn knob counter- clockwise to open and clockwise to close.

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.
