GLOSSARY

Become familiar with these terms
before operating the unit.

CFM

:  Cubic feet per minute.

SCFM:

Standard cubic feet per

minute; a unit of measure of air deliv-
ery.

PSIG:

Pounds per square inch

gauge; a unit of measure of pressure.

Code Certification: 

Products that

bear one or more of the following
marks: UL, CUL, ETL, CETL, have
been evaluated by OSHA certified
independent safety laboratories and
meet the applicable Underwriters
Laboratories Standards for Safety.

Cut-In Pressure:

While the motor is

off, air tank pressure drops as you
continue to use your accessory.
When the tank pressure drops to a
certain low level the motor will restart

DUTY CYCLE

Air compressors should be operated
on not more than a 50% duty cycle.
This means an air compressor that
pumps air more than 50% of one

automatically.  The low pressure at
which the motor automatically
restarts is called "cut-in" pressure.

Cut-Out Pressure:

When an air

compressor is turned on and begins
to run, air pressure in the air tank
begins to build.  It builds to a certain
high pressure before the motor auto-
matically shuts off - protecting your
air tank from pressure higher than its
capacity.  The high pressure at which
the motor shuts off is called "cut-out"
pressure.

Branch Circuit: 

Circuit carrying elec-

tricity from electrical panel to outlet.

To Lock Out Power: 

Place a lock on

the line power switch so no one else
can turn on the power.

hour is considered misuse, because
the air compressor is undersized for
the required air demand.  Maximum
compressor pumping time per hour is
30 minutes.

Accessories for this unit are available at the store the unit was purchased.

ACCESSORIES

* A circuit breaker is preferred. Use only a fuse or circuit breaker that is the same
rating as the branch circuit on which the air compressor is operated. If compres-
sor is connected to a circuit protected by fuses, use only time delay fuses. Time
delay fuses should be marked "D" in Canada and "T" in the US.
