flow with the pressure regulator knob. Turning the knob
fully counterclockwise will completely stop the flow of
air.

necessary for your application. Using a higher pressure
than needed will drain air from the tank more rapidly
and cause the unit to cycle on more frequently.
When finished, always drain the tank and unplug the
unit. Never leave the unit plugged in and/or running
unattended.

Always ensure the On/Off switch is in the OFF position
and the regulator pressure gauge read zero before
changing air tools or disconnecting the hose from the air
outlet. Failure to do so could result in possible serious
personal injury.
Rotate regulator knob fully clockwise to open air flow.
Connect the power cord to the power supply.
Pull out the red button of the On/Off switch in order to
switch on the compressor.
Rotate pressure regulator knob to desired line
pressure. Turning the knob clockwise increases
air pressure at the outlet; turning counterclockwise
reduces air pressure at the outlet.
