FEATURES OF THE BOSTITCH CAP2045ST-OL
A. Pressure Switch:
The pressure switch is
the activation mechanism that is used to start
and stop the compressor. When the switch is
moved to the “AUTO” position, the motor and
pump will compress air until tank pressure
reaches the upper limit of the factory set
operating pressure. When tank pressure falls
below the factory set “cut in” pressure, the
compressor will again automatically start to
compress air.
B. Tank Pressure Gauge:
The tank pressure
gauge indicates the air pressure that is
present in the tank in PSI (lbs/sq. in.).
C. Regulated Pressure Gauge:
The regulated pressure gauge indicates the amount of
pressure that is allowed into the two discharge lines (E) according to the setting of the
regulator.
D. Regulator Knob:
The regulator knob is used to adjust the air pressure that is available at
the two discharge lines. The discharge air pressure is increased by turning the knob
clockwise and decreased by turning the knob counter clockwise.
E. Discharge Lines:
This compressor is equipped with two discharge lines. These lines extend
from the control panel as 1/4” female NPT to allow the end user to attach the appropriate size
fitting for the application.
F. Drain Cocks:
Pull-style or twist style valves that drain moisture from the tanks when they
are opened.
G. Oil Drain:
By removing the sight glass plug, oil can
be drained from the compressor crankcase. The
opening is tapered so that a small receptacle can be
placed under the opening to cleanly catch the oil.
H. Oil Fill:
When adding oil to the unit, it is poured into
this opening. The opening is designed to act as a
funnel to make filling easier and cleaner.
I. Sight Glass:
This oil drain plug is see-through so that
the user can quickly and easily verify the oil level prior
to operation.
