2：GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF AIR COMPRESSOR
The air compressor pump works with the up and down of a piston in the cylinder. During the
down-stroke, ambient air is drawn in through the inlet valve, while the discharge valve remains
closed. On the up-stroke of th e pisto n, the air is forced into the compressor tank through the
discharge valve and the check valve. Through this controlled action, air is forced into the tank
to a preset pressure. The pressure switch regulates the pressure and controls the
stop/start of the motor. Working air is not available until the pressure in the air tank is built up.
The air inlet filter openings must be kept clear of obstructions.
All tools require specific air pressure to operate properly. Consult your air tool manual for those
requirements and safety instructions. There are a variety of air tools available that will operate
efficiently with this air compressor. For best result s, always compare the air tool requirements to
your compressor output specifications. A tool that requires a lot of continuous air, such as a
sander, will not operate effectively with a small tank compressor. A tool that requires little air,
such as a brad nail gun, will operate with a small tank compressor very effectively. Lear n your
air tool power requirements, match your air tools to your compressor correctly and this
compressor will perform effectively.
3：ON RECEIPT INSPECTION
Each air compressor outfit is carefully tested and inspected before shipment. Every attempt is
made to ensure safe and complete shipment of our products. Please inform the dealers if any
deficiency was found.
4：GENERAL REQUIREMENT
Please ensure air compressor is installed correctly. Maintain and service on a regular basis.
Information included in this booklet describing the maintenance schedules and
trouble-shooting. It is important that you read this information and keep it for future
reference.
5：INSTALLATION
5.1：MECHANICAL
Use the compressor in a clean, dry and well-ventilated area. The compressor should be
located 300mm from a wall or any other obstruction that would interfere with the air flow.
Place the air compressor on a firm and level surface. The air compressor is designed with
heat dissipation fins that allow for proper cooling. Keep the fins and other parts clean. A
clean compressor runs cooler and provides longer service. Allow room for easy access to
the air compressor for maintenance and service work.
5.1-1：For vertical type permanent installation, the compressor should be bolted to the floor
through holes provided in the compressor feet. Shims must be used to level the
compressor before bolting it to the floor. Severe vibration will result when the compressor
is bolted down tightly and the feet are not level. This can lead to welds cracking or fatigue
of the air receiver.

5.2：ELECTRICAL
Please ensure that the air compressor is electrically connected in a safe and cor rect manner.
Any electrical work should be carried out by an electrician and installed in a way which
meets all applicable codes and regulations.
Failure to connect the air compressor correctly to power source may result in serious
personal injury or damage to the equipment.
Please note that under normal conditions, the air compressor will operate intermittently.
Should it be necessary to service, ensure the power source has been shut down to prevent
personal injury or damage to the unit.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a service agent in order to avoid a
hazard.
5-2-1
：MOTOR
Wiring must be done in a manner tha t full voltage is available at the m otor t erminals durin g
startup. Use of an incorrect power source will result in premature motor failure and is not
covered by this compressor or motor manufacturer’s warranty.
5-2-2
：PRESSURE SWITCH
The pressure switch acts as a pilot device activating the motor. The pressure switch cut
in/cut out has been preset at the factory, do not tamper with the settings. Never bypass or
remove this switch, as serious damage to equipment or personal injury could result from
improper pressure setting. Consult your local distributor or service center if the switch
malfunctions.
5-2-3：GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
Do not modify the plug that has been provided, if it does not fit the available outlet, the
correct outlet should be installed by a qualified electrician. The plug must be plugged into
an outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes. If these
grounding instructions are not completely understood or if in doubt as to whether the
compressor is properly grounded, have the installation checked by a qualified electrician.
5-2-3-1
5-2-4
5-2-5：PUMP ROTATION
The compressor is to be wired in a manner that the rotation of the flywheel causes the air
：This product is for use on a nominal 240 volt circuit.
No adapter should be used with this product.
：EXTENSION CORDS
The use of any extension cord will cause some drop in voltage and loss of power. For
optimum performance, plug the compressor power cord directly into a grounded wall
socket. Do not use an extension cord unless absol utely necessary. It is better to use a long
air hose to reach area where work is being performed. If use of an extension cord can not
be avoided, refer to the following guidelines ：
Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. Be sure quality is sufficient to carry
the current the unit will draw.
to be blown over the pump. This allows the pump to cool properly.

6：COMPRESSOR LUBRICATION
Do not add or change oil while the compressor is in operation, use the recommended 30 weight
non-detergent oil only.
6-1：OIL FILLING
：Remove the oil filler plug.
6-1-1
6-1-2
：Slowly pour the proper oil into the pump crankcase.
：Always keep oil level between the marks “HIGH” and “LOW” level on the oil stick or on
6-1-3
the red circle of the sight glass.
7：START UP PROCEDURE
Do not attempt to operate the air compressor unit without first checking the oil level in the pump,
add oil as required. Serious damage may result from use without oil.
7-1
：Check to see that nuts and bolts are all snug, this must be done as som e fasteners may
become loose in transit.
：Check to see if the belt is installed with proper tension.
7-2
：Check belt tightness so that when pressure is applied at the center, there is 1/2” slack.
7-3
7-4：Check that type and oil level is correct, user proper compressor lubrication.
：Check that compressor is placed on stable, level ground.
7-5
：Check that crank case breather is clean.
7-6
7-7
：Check that air filter is clean.
：Do not place any materials on or against the compressor unit itself.
7-8
Doing so will limit the cooling of the air compressor and could lead to
premature failure.
7-9
：Check that the flywheel is turning in the correct direction.
：Open the air receiver outlet ball valve and start the unit. Allow the unit to operate for a
7-10
minimum of twenty minutes in this no load condition.
：After running the compressor for twenty minutes, close the ball valve and allow the
7-11
unit to reach maximum operating pressure. Ensure that the compressor shuts down
at the preset maximum pressure, and the head pressure is released through
pressure switch.
7-12
：Check the air compressor and piping systems for leakages, and correct as required.
：Shut off of all power to the air compressor before attempting any repair or maintenance.
7-13
7-14
：Stop the compressor and check the oil level thru oil gauge. Add oil as required.
：Your compressor is ready for use.
