OPERATION
Daily Start-Up
1. Close the tank drain valve (see D). Turn in the clockwise direction.
2. Plug in the power cord.
High temperatures are generated by the electric motor
and
the pump. To prevent burns or other injuries, DO NOT
touch the air compressor while it is running. Allow it to
cool
before handing or servicing. Keep children away from the
air
compressor at all times
3. Turn the ON/OFF switch to the ON position (see C)
When adjusting from a higher to a
lower pressure, turn the knob counter-clockwise past the
desired setting; then, turn clockwise to reach the desired
pressure. Do not exceed operating pressure of the tool or
accessory being used.
4. If a pressure regulator is present on your air
compressor, adjust it to the working pressure of the
tool.
SHUTDOWN
1. Turn the ON/OFF switch to the OFF position.
2. Unplug the power cord.
3. Reduce pressure in the tank through the outlet hose.
4. You can also pull the relief valve ring (see E) and
keep it open to relieve pressure in the tank.
Escaping air and moisture can propel debris that may cause eye
injury. Wear safety goggles when opening drain valve.
5. Tip the air compressor (if necessary for your model) so the tank
drain valve is at the bottom of the tank. Then open the tank drain
valve (see B) to allow moisture to drain from the tank.
