PARTS & FEATURES
Drain Valve:
Used to drain condensation from the air tank. Located at bottom of tank.
Tank Safety Valve:
Used to allow excess tank pressure to escape into the atmosphere. This valve should only open
when the tank pressure is above the maximum rated pressure.
Tank Pressure Gauge:
Indicates the reserve air pressure in the tank.
Outlet Pressure Gauge:
Indicates the outgoing air pressure to the tool and is controlled by the regulator.
Regulator:
The regulator controls the air pressure coming from the air tank. To increase the pressure, turn the knob
clockwise and to decrease the pressure turn the knob counterclockwise.
Quick Coupler:
Offers a quick release feature for attaching and removing the air hose.
Motor Thermal Overload:
The motor has an automatic thermal overload protector. If the motor overheats, this
protector will shut off the motor. The motor must be allowed 30 minutes to cool before restarting.
Auto/Off Switch:
In the AUTO position, the compressor shuts off automatically when tank pressure reaches the
maximum preset pressure. In the OFF position, the compressor will not operate. This switch should be in the OFF
position when connecting or disconnecting the power cord from the electrical outlet or when changing air tools.
INSTALLATION & ASSEMBLY
Handle.
Align holes in Handle(#78) to holes in mounting plate with Cap Screws(#68), and secure with washers and
nuts.
Wheels
. Attach Wheels(#72) to the tank with Axle Bolt(#73), with offset hub facing axle iron, and secure with
washers(#71) and nuts(#70).
Filter
. Thread the Air Filter(#32) onto the Cylinder Head(#27).
Location of the Air Compressor
. The air compressor should always be located in a clean, dry, and well-ventilated
environment. The unit should have at minimum, 30cm of space on each side. The air filter intake should be free of
any debris or obstructions. Check the air filter on a daily basis to be sure it is clean and in working order.
Extension Cords.
Use only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug, and a 3-slot receptacle that will
accept the plug on the product. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be
sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. Cords must not exceed 25 feet and No. 12
AWG size must be used. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and
overheating.
This product should be grounded. In the event of an electrical short
circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the
electric current. This product is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with an
appropriate grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
This compressor is shipped without oil!
