Installation (Cont.)

It is extremely important to install the compressor in a clean, well ventilated area where the surrounding air temperature will not be more than 100°F.

A minimum clearance of 18 inches between the compressor and a wall is required because objects could obstruct air flow.

Do not locate the

compressor air inlet near steam, paint spray, sandblast areas or any other source of contamination. This debris will damage the motor.

ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION

All wiring and

electrical connections should be performed by a qualified electrician. Installation must be in accordance with local codes and national electrical codes.

Never use an extension cord with this product. Use additional air hose instead of an extension cord to avoid power loss and permanent motor damage.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

1. This product is for use on a nominal

120 volt circuit and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated in Fig. 3. Make sure the product is connected to an outlet having the same configuration as the plug. This product must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces risk of electrical shock by providing an escape wire for electric current. This product is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with an appropriate grounding plug. Plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

Improper use of grounding plug can result in a possible risk of electrical shock!

Do not use a grounding adapter

with this product!

2. If repair or replacement of cord or plug is necessary, do not connect grounding wire to either flat blade terminal. The wire with insulation having an external surface that is green (with or without yellow stripes) is the grounding wire.

Never connect green (or green and

yellow) wire to a live terminal.

3. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if in doubt as to whether product is properly grounded. Do not modify plug provided; if it will not fit outlet, have proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

WIRING

Local electrical wiring codes differ from area to area. Source wiring, plug and protector must be rated for at least the amperage and voltage indicated on motor nameplate, and meet all electrical codes for this minimum.

2. Use a slow blow fuse or a circuit breaker.

Overheating, short

circuiting and fire damage will result from inadequate wiring, etc.

NOTE: 120 volt, 15 amp units can be operated on a 120 volt circuit under the following conditions:

a. No other electrical appliances or lights

are connected to the same branch circuit.

b. Voltage supply is normal.

c. Circuit is equipped with a 15 amp

circuit breaker or a 15 amp slow blow fuse.

3. If these conditions cannot be met or if nuisance tripping of current protection device occurs, it may be necessary to operate compressor from a 120 volt, 20 amp circuit.

Operation

Pressure Switch - Auto/Off Switch - In

the ON position, the compressor shuts off automatically when tank pressure reaches the maximum preset pressure. The compressor will automatically restart when it reaches the minimum 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.

Regulator - The regulator controls the amount of air pressure released at the hose outlet.

ASME Safety Valve - This valve automatically releases air if the tank pressure exceeds the preset maximum.

ASME SAFETY VALVE

Do not remove or attempt to adjust

the safety valve!

This valve should be checked occasionally by pulling the ring by hand. Air may leak even after ring has been released. However, if the leaking continues for an extended period of time, or if the safety valve is stuck and cannot be activated by the ring, the safety valve MUST be replaced. (Note: Valve will reset when tank pressure reaches 40-50 PSI.)

REGULATOR KNOB

1. This knob controls air pressure to an air operated tool, or paint spray gun.

2. Turning knob clockwise increases air pressure at outlet.

3. Turning counterclockwise will lower air pressure at outlet.

4. Fully counterclockwise will shut off flow of air completely.

OUTLET (TOOL) PRESSURE GAUGE

1. This gauge shows at-aglance, air pressure at outlet. Air pressure is measured in pounds per square inch (psi).

2. Be sure this gauge reads ZERO before changing air tools or disconnecting hose from outlet.

TANK PRESSURE GAUGE

Gauge shows pressure in tank indicating compressor is building pressure properly.

Disconnect power source then release all pressure from the system before attempting to install, service, relocate or perform any maintenance.

Operation (Cont.)

Handle - Designed to move the

compressor. Tool Storage - 1/4 inch quick connect

couplers fit in holes to support air chuck and other inflation fittings.

Never use the

handle on wheeled units to lift the unit completely off the ground.

Drain Petcock - This valve is located on the bottom of the tank. Use this valve to drain moisture from the tank daily to reduce the risk of corrosion.

Reduce tank pressure below 10 PSI, then drain moisture from tank daily to avoid tank corrosion. Drain moisture from tank(s) by opening the drain petcock located underneath the tank.

LUBRICATION This is an oilless product and DOES NOT require lubrication to operate. IMPORTANT: Do not operate compres-

sor before reading instructions or damage may result.

1. Turn switch to OFF position and plug

in power cord.

2. Attach hose to compressor outlet.

3. Attach chuck or other tool to open end of hose.

4. Turn regulator clockwise to open air flow.

5. Turn switch to ON position.

6. Compressor will build to maximum preset pressure and shut off.

7. Adjust regulator to proper pressure for tool or tire. Operate tool per instructions. Compressor will automatically restart when pressure in tank drops below cut-in pressure.

8. Turn regulator knob counterclockwise to shut off the air and turn switch to Off position.

In the ON position, the compressor pumps air into the tank. It shuts off automatically when unit reaches its 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.

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 (MP3105), located as near to the gun as possible, will help eliminate this moisture.
