1.Belt Guard. The belt guard encloses the pulleys and drive belt. It protects the user from moving parts and directs cooling air to the compressor pump

2.Air Filter. The air filter keeps dirt and debris from entering the compressor pump and reduces compressor noise.

3.Dipstick/Oil Sight Glass. The dip- stick and oil sight glass both measure the oil level in the compressor pump.

Your compressor may have either a dipstick or an oil sight glass.

8.Regulated Outlet Gauge. This gauge shows at-a-glance, air pressure at outlet. Air pressure is measured in pounds per square inch (PSI). Most tools have maximum pressure ratings. Never exceed the maximum pressure rating of the tool you are using. Be sure this gauge reads ZERO before changing air tools or disconnecting hose from outlet.

9.Regulator Knob. This knob controls air pressure to an air operated tool or paint spray gun. Turning the knob clockwise increases air pressure at the outlet. Turning counterclockwise will lower air pressure at the outlet. Fully counterclockwise will shut off the flow of air completely.

4.Handles. Used to move the compres- sor.

5.Tank Drain Valve. The tank drain valve allows moisture to be removed from the tank.

NOTE: Each tank has its own tank drain valve.

6.Unloader. The unloader controls the engine rpm. When loaded, the engine will run at maximum operating speed and air will enter the tank. When unloaded, the engine will slow to an idle and air will vent to atmosphere.

7.Air Storage Tanks. The tanks store air for later use.

10.Tank Pressure Gauge. Gauge shows pressure in air receiver indicating compressor is building pressure properly.

11.ASME Safety Valve. This valve automatically releases air if the tank pressure exceeds the preset maximum.

12.Air Outlet Fittings. These fittings are 1/4” universal-style quick connect fittings and allow rapid tool changes.
