Introduction
R efer to Figure 3 to locate the
following items.
ON / OFF Switch ( I / O ) -
Push
switch to the ON (
I
) position to turn
compressor on. Push switch to the OFF
(
O
) position to turn compressor off.
This switch should be in the OFF (
O
)
position when connecting /
disconnecting power cord from
electrical outlet or when changing
tools.
Pressure Switch (located
internally)-
When the compressor
is turned ON, this switch will shut
compressor off automatically when
tank pressure reaches maximum shut-
off / cut-out pressure. If compressor
remains on and air is depleted from
tank, this switch will allow compressor
to automatically restart at the restart /
cut-in pressure.
Drain Valve -
This valve is located on
the bottom of the tank. Use this valve
to drain moisture from the tank daily to
reduce the risk of corrosion.
Motor Reset
- (not shown, located
inside motor). Designed to keep the
motor from overheating. The motor has
a self-hold protector. If the unit is over
worked, a thermal limiter will shut unit
off. If it happens, switch the unit to the
OFF position and unplug the unit. Wait
30 minutes, plug the unit in and switch
the unit to the ON position again to
resume work.
This compressor is
equipped with an
overload protector which will shut off
motor if it becomes overloaded.
If the overload
protector is
actuated, the motor must be allowed
to cool down for approximately 30
minutes before it will reset.
Regulator -
The regulator controls the
amount of air pressure released at the
hose outlet. Turning the regulator knob
clockwise (to the right) will increase
air pressure at the outlet. Turning the
knob counter-clockwise (to the left) will
lower air pressure to the outlet. Turning
knob fully counter-clockwise will shut
off flow of air completely.
Pressure Gauges -
There are two
gauges located next to the regulator.
These gauges read air pressure in
pounds per square inch (psi) The larger
gauge shows pressure at the outlet.
Make sure this gauge reads ZERO
(by adjusting the regulator) BEFORE
changing air tools or disconnecting
hose from outlet. The small gauge
shows pressure in the tank indicating
compressor is building pressure
properly.
Safety Valve -
This valve automatically
releases air if the tank pressure exceeds
the preset maximum.
Handle -
Designed to move the
compressor.
