OPERATION
Following all safety precautions in this manual and the
manufacturer’s instructions in the air tool manual, you
may now proceed to use your air-powered tool.
If using an inflation accessory, control the amount of air
flow with the pressure regulator knob. Turning the knob
fully counterclockwise will completely stop the flow of
air.
NOTE:
Always use the minimum amount of pressure
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 stop
the compressor. Never leave the unit in running
unattended.
END OF OPERATION/STORAGE
Shut off the engine.
Disconnect the spark plug wire from the spark plug and
wrap around handle area to prevent damage when not
in use.
Wearing safety glasses drain tank of air by pulling the
ring on the safety valve. Use other hand to deflect fast
moving air from being directed toward your face.
Drain tank of condensation by opening both drain
valves on bottom of tank. Tank pressure should be
below 10 psi when draining tank.
Air hose should be disconnected from compressor and
hung open ends down to allow any moisture to drain.
Compressor and hose should be stored in a cool, dry
place.
WARNING:
Your tool may require more air consumption than this
air compressor is capable of providing. Check the tool
manual to avoid damage to the tool or risk of personal
injury.
