Attach Regulator (Recommended)
We recommend using a regulator with this compressor
since the pre-set tank pressure ranges between 105 and
135 PSI and is usually greater than what is needed by
tools.
Without the addition of a regulator, the pressure switch
will maintain a tank pressure within the pre-set range
that has a max of 150 PSI. This is considered an overly
high pressure for many tools. A user-installed regulator
can maintain a lower constant pressure in the outlet
hose line and prevent over pressurization of tools.
WARNING: Bursting hazard
Too much air pressure causes a hazardous risk of
bursting. Check the manufacturer’s maximum pressure
rating for air tools and accessories. Regulators must
never be set to exceed the maximum pressure rating of
tank or tools.
