Know Your Air Compressor
READ THIS OWNER'S MANUAL AND SAFETY RULES BEFORE OPERATING
YOUR UNIT. Compare the illustrations with your unit to familiarize yourself with
the location of vanous controls and adjustments. Save this manua[for future
reference.
Description of Operation
Become familiar with these controls
before operating the unit.
Regulator
On/Auto/Off Switch: Turn this
switch "ON/AUTO" to provide
automatic power to the pressure
switch and "OFF" to remove power
at the end of each use.
Pressure Switch: The pressure
switch automatically starts the
motor when the air tank pressure
drops below the factory set "cut-in"
pressure. It stops the motor when
the air tank pressure reaches the
factory set "cut-out" pressure.
Safety Valve: If the pressure switch
does not shut off the air compressor
at its "cut-out" pressure setting, the
safety valve will protect against high
pressure by "popping out" at its
factory set pressure (slightly higher
than the pressure switch "cut-out"
setting).
Outlet Pressure Gauge: The outlet
pressure gauge indicates the air
pressure available at the outlet side
of the regulator. This pressure is
controlled by the regulator and is
always less than or equal to the tank
pressure.
Tank Pressure Gauge: The tank
pressure gauge indicates the reserve
air pressure in the tank.
Regulator: Controls the air pressure
shown on the outlet pressure gauge.
Pull the knob out and turn clockwise
to increase pressure and
counterclockwise to decrease
pressure. When the desired pressure
is reached push knob in to lock in
place.
Drain Valve:
The drain valve
is located at
the base of the
air tank and is Valve
used to drain
condensation at the end of each use.
Cooling System (not shown): This
compressor contains an advanced
design cooling system. At the heart
of this cooling system is an
engineered fan. It is perfectly normal
for this fan to blow air through the
vent holes in large amounts. You
know that the cooling system is
working when air is being expelled.
Air Compressor Pump (not shown):
Compresses air into the air tank.
Working air is not available until the
compressor has raised the air tank
pressure above that required at the
air outlet.
13_ ENG A00854
Check
Valve:
When the air
compressor
is operating,
the check
valve is
"open",
allowing
compressed air to enter the air tank.
When the air compressor reaches
"cut-out" pressure, the check
valve "closes", allowing air pressure
to remain inside the air tank.
Pressure
Release
Valve: The
pressure
release
valve, Release
Pressure
located on Valve
the side of
the pressure switch, is designed to
automatically release compressed air
from the compressor head and the
outlet tube when the air compressor
reaches "cut-out" pressure or is shut
off. The pressure release valve allows
the motor to restart freely. When the
motor stops running, air will be heard
escaping from this valve for a few
seconds. No air should be heard
leaking when the motor is running, or
continuous leaking after unit reaches
"cut-out" pressure.
Air Intake Filter (not shown): This
filter is designed to clean air coming
into the pump. This filter must always
be clean and ventilation openings
free from obstructions. See
"Maintenance".
Motor Overload Protector: The
motor has an automatic reset thermal
overload protector. If the motor
overheats for any reason, the
overload protector will shut off the
motor. The motor must be allowed to
cool down before restarting. The
compressor will automatically restart
after the motor cools.
How to Use Your Unit
