OPERATION

TRANSPORTING THE AIR COMPRESSOR up or DOWN STAIRS

See Figure 5, page 17.

To transport the air compressor down stairs:

nUsing the carrying handle get a firm grasp of the unit. Lift the unit into a safe and comfortable carrying position.

NOTE: Use good lifting techniques and get help if needed.

nWith proper footing and balance, carry the unit down one step at a time.

nUse care in transporting the unit down or up stairs to avoid damage to the stairs, damage to the unit, and personal injury.

nLower the air compressor until it sits securely on a flat surface.

tool storage

See Figure 6 - 7, page 17.

nPneumatic accessories may be stored in the accessory compartment.

NOTE: Always disconnect the tools from the air hose and securely close the accessory compartment before storage.

nCertain pneumatic nailers can be mounted to the sides of the air compressor using the side connect storage areas. Framing and roofing nailers should not be stowed in these storage areas as they are too large.

NOTE: Never rest the trigger of the nailer/stapler tool on this storage mount.

nThe air compressor should be stored on a stable flat surface either in the horizontal or upright position.

NOTE: Do not suspend the air compressor as it may result in damage to the air compressor or personal injury.

auto/off

See Figure 8, page 17.

nConnect the air compressor to a power supply. Turn the power switch to the AUTO position to power the compressor on, as shown in the start up section of the quick reference label.

NOTE: Do not run the compressor in the vertical position.

nTo turn the air compressor off, turn the power switch to the OFF position.

NOTE: When the compressor is in the AUTO position, the air compressor will automatically turn back on when the tank air pressure drops below the preset pressure limit. It will also shut off again when the max pressure is reached.

ReSETting the compressor

When amperage into the air compressor exceeds the specified amperage, the air compressor will automatically shut off.

To reset the air compressor:

nTurn the air compressor off.

nUnplug the air compressor to allow unit to cool and to trigger reset.

NOTE: If the overload protector is actuated, the motor must be allowed to cool down for 30 minutes.

nPlug the air compressor into an approved outlet.

nTurn the air compressor on.

WARNING

Never exceed the air tool’s pressure rating as recommended by the manufacturer. When using this air compressor as an inflation device, always follow the maximum inflation guidelines stated by the manufacturer of the item being inflated.

WARNING

Always ensure the switch is in the OFF position and the regulator pressure gauge reads zero (0) psi before changing air tools or disconnecting the hose from the air outlet. Failure to do so could result in possible serious personal injury.

CONNECTING/DISCONNECTING HOSES TO THE AIR COMPRESSOR

See Figures 8 - 10, pages 17 - 18.

When connecting a pneumatic air nailer or other air tool always follow the manufacturer’s recommended start-up procedure.

When connecting/disconnecting a hose to the air compressor always do the following:

nEnsure AUTO/OFF switch is in the OFF position and the air compressor is unplugged.

nConfirm that the outlet pressure is at zero (0) psi by fully turning the regulator knob counterclockwise to fully re- duce air pressure at the outlet.

NOTE: Turning the knob clockwise increases air pressure at the outlet. Turning counterclockwise reduces air pres- sure at the outlet.

nAttach coiled air hose to coupler on the side of the air compressor.

nConnect the air compressor to a power supply and turn power switch to the AUTO position.
