Description of Operation
Become familiar with these controls before operating the unit.
On/Auto/Off Switch
: Turn this switch
ON to provide automatic power to
the pressure switch and OFF to
remove power at the end of each
use.
Pressure Switch:
The pressure
switch automatically starts the motor
when the air tank pressure drops
below the factory set "cut-in" pres-
sure. It stops the motor when the air
tank pressure reaches the factory set
"cut-out" pressure.
Safety Valve:
If the pressure switch
does not shut off the air compressor
at its "cut-out" pressure setting, the
safety valve will protect against high
pressure by "popping out" at its factory set pressure (slightly higher than the
pressure switch "cut-out" setting).
Tank Pressure Gauge:
The tank pressure gauge indicates the reserve air
pressure in the tank.
Globe Valve (sold separately):
Opens and closes air discharge valve. Turn
knob counter-clockwise to open and clockwise to close.
Regulator (sold separately, not shown)
: An air pressure regulator or a sepa-
rate air transformer which combines the functions of air regulation and/or mois-
ture and dirt removal is recommended for most applications.
Drain Valve:
The drain valve is located at the
base of the air tank and is used to drain conden-
sation at the end of each use.
Cooling System (not shown)
: This compressor
contains an advanced design cooling system. At
the heart of this cooling system is an engineered
fan. It is perfectly normal for this fan to blow air through the vent holes in large
amounts. You know that the cooling system is working when air is being
expelled.
