Operating Instructions
VT6315, VT6358, VT6361
Introduction
Refer to Figure 1 to locate the following
items.
Pressure switch - Auto/Off Switch - In
the AUTO position, the compressor
shuts off automatically when tank
pressure reaches the maximum preset
pressure. After air is used from the tank
and drops to a preset low level, the
pressure switch automatically turns the
motor back on. 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.
When the pressure switch turns the
motor off you will hear air leaking out
of the pressure switch unloader valve
for a short time. This releases the air
pressure from the discharge tube and
allows the compressor to restart easier.
Regulator - The regulator controls the
amount of air pressure released at the
hose outlet.

pressure is reached turn regulator
knob clockwise until desired outlet
pressure is achieved.
9. After use, turn pressure switch lever
or knob to the OFF position.
MOISTURE IN COMPRESSED AIR
Moisture in compressed air will form
into droplets as it comes from an air
compressor pump. When humidity
is high or when a compressor is in
continuous use for an extended
period of time, this moisture will
collect in the tank. When using a
paint spray or sandblast gun, this
water will be carried from the tank
through the hose, and out of the
gun as droplets mixed with the spray
material.
IMPORTANT: This condensation will
cause water spots in a paint job,
especially when spraying other than
water based paints. If sandblasting, it
will cause the sand to cake and clog
the gun, rendering it ineffective.
A filter in the air line, located as
near to the gun as possible, will help
eliminate this moisture.
10. If compressor is not used for a long
time period, bleed air from line
and use drain valve to drain water
from the tank. Then, follow the
maintenance schedule.
NOTE: Electric models are equipped
with a pressure switch that
automatically turns the motor OFF when
the tank pressure reaches a preset level.
After air is used from the tank and
drops to a preset low level, the pressure
switch automatically turns the motor
back on.
Maintenance
Disconnect, tag and lock out
power source, then release
all pressure from the system
before attempting to install, service,
relocate or perform any maintenance.
All repairs should be performed by an
authorized service representative.
FOR EFFICIENT OPERATION:
Perform the following test to verify free
operation of the safety valve weekly
and follow maintenance schedule.
1. Pull ring on safety valve and allow
the ring to snap back to normal
position (see Figure 9). This valve
automatically releases air if the
tank pressure exceeds the preset
maximum.
Figure 9
Do not attempt to
tamper with this
valve. This valve should be checked
occasionally. If air leaks after the ring
has been released, or the valve is stuck
and cannot be actuated by the ring, the
safety valve must be replaced.
A large amount of
fast moving air will
be released if this valve is actuated with
pressure in the tank.
2. With motor OFF and unplugged,
clean debris from motor, flywheel,
tank, air lines and pump cooling fins.
