COMPRESSOR FEATURES
1) MOTOR/PRESSURE SWITCH: This switch is used to start or stop the air compressor. Moving the switch to the (On) position will provide automatic power to the pressure switch which will allow the motor to start when the air tank pressure is below the factory set cut-in pressure. When in the On Position,
the pressure switch stops the motor when the air tank pressure reaches the factory set cut-out pressure. For safety purposes, this switch also has a pressure release valve located on the side of the switch designed to automatically release compressed air from the air compressor pump head and its discharge line when the air compressor reaches cut-out pressure or is shut off. This allows the motor to restart freely. Moving the switch to the Off position will remove power from the motor and stop
the air compressor.
2)MOTOR OVERLOAD: Motor has a protective breaker located on the pump. Excessive amperage draw will result in the breaker tripping to protect the motor and operator. Reset the breaker by pushing the black plastic stem back into
the housing. Reset switch if it is tripped.
3)AIR INTAKE FILTER: This filter is designed to clean air coming into the pump. To ensure the pump continually receives a clean, cool, dry air supply this filter must always be clean and ventilation opening free from obstructions. The filter can be removed for cleaning by using warm, soapy water. Rinse the filter and air dry.
4)AIR COMPRESSOR PUMP: To compress air, the piston moves up and down in the cylinder. On the downstroke, air is drawn in through the air intake valve while the exhaust valve remains closed. On the upstroke, air is compressed, the intake valve closes and compressed air is forced out through the exhaust valve, into the discharge line, through the check valve and into the air tank.
5)SAFETY RELIEF VALVE: This valve is designed to prevent system failures by
relieving pressure from the system when the compressed air reaches a predetermined level. The valve is preset by the manufacturer and must not be modified in any way. To verify the valve is working properly, pull on the ring. Air pressure should escape. When the ring is released, it will reseat.
6) AIR TANK DRAIN VALVE: The drain valve is used to remove moisture from the air tank(s) after the air compressor is shut off. NEVER attempt to open the drain valve when more than 10 PSI of air pressure is in the air tank! To open the drain valve, turn the knob counterclockwise. Tilt tank to ensure that all condensation drains through valve.

7)AIR TANK PRESSURE GAUGE: The air tank pressure gauge indicates the reserve air pressure in the air tank (s).
8)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 or equal to the air tank pressure.
9)PRESSURE REGULATOR: The air pressure coming from the air tank is controlled by the regulator knob. Turn the pressure regulation knob clockwise to increase discharge pressure, and counterclockwise to decrease discharge pressure. Follow tool operating instructions for recommended pressure range.
10)DISCHARGE LINE: Please note that the discharge line is very hot.

PREPARATION
INITIAL SET-UP:
1.Read safety warnings before setting-up air compressor.
LOCATION:
CAUTION
In order to avoid damaging the air compressor,do not incline the air compressor transversely or longitudinally more than 10 °.
1.Place air compressor at least 12 inches away from obstacles that may prevent proper ventilation. Do not place air compressor in an area:
-where there is evidence of oil or gas leaks.
-where flammable gas vapors or materials may be present.
WARNING
Serious injury or death may occur if electrical sparks from motor and pressure switch come in contact with flammable vapors, combustible dust, gases or other
combustible materials. When using the air compressor for spray painting, place the air compressor as far away from the work area as possible,using extra air hoses instead of extension cords.
-where air temperatures fall below 32 °F or exceed 104 °F.
-where extremely dirty air or water could be drawn into the air compressor.
ELECTRICAL:
DANGER
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of shock or electrocution. Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if
you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. Do not use any type of adapter with this product. If repair or replacement of the cord or plug is necessary,do not connect the grounding wire to either flat blade terminal. The wire with insulation having an outer surface that is green with or without yellow stripes is the grounding wire.
WARNING
This product must be grounded.If there should be a malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This product is equipped with a cord having an equipment-
grounding conductor and a grounding type plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
1.Senco ® DOES NOT RECOMMEND THE USE OF EXTENSION CORDS as this can create power loss and overheating of the motor. Use of an additional air hose is recommended rather than an extension cord. If use of an extension cord is unavoidable,it should be plugged into a GFCI found in circuit boxes or protected receptacles. When using an extension cord,observe the following:
Cable Length |
Wire Gauge |
Up to 25 feet |
12 AWG |
Up to 100 feet |
10 AWG |
Up to 150 feet |
8 AWG |
Up to 250 feet |
6 AWG |
Use only 3-blade extension cords that have 3-blade grounding-type plugs and 3-slot cord connectors that will accept the plug from the product. Use only extension cords having an electrical rating not less than the rating of the product. Do not use damaged extension cords. Examine extension cord before using and replace if damaged. Do not abuse extension cord and do not yank on any cord to disconnect. Keep cord away from heat and sharp edges. Always shut off the air compressor switch before removing the plug from the receptacle.

OPERATION
PRE-START CHECKLIST:
1.Remove any moisture in the air compressor air tank. Remove excessive pressure by pulling on the safety relief valve ring or with an air tool, then open the air tank drain valve in the bottom of the air tank. Close tightly when drained.
WARNING: Risk of bodily injury. NEVER attempt to open the drain valve when more than 10 PSI of air pressure is in the air tank!
2.Make sure the air compressor Motor Switch is in the "OFF" position.
3.Make sure all safety valves are working correctly.
4.Make sure all guards and covers are in place and securely mounted.
START-UP:
1.Ensure the lever on the pressure switch box is in the "OFF" position.
2.Plug the power cord into the grounded outlet.
3.Move the lever on the pressure switch box to the "ON" position.
4.This will allow the air compressor to "START" building up pressure in the air tanks and "STOP" when correct pressure is achieved. When pressure drops with usage, the air compressor will "START" building up pressure again.
5.Set pressure by adjusting the pressure regulator knob counterclockwise for less pressure and clockwise for more pressure.
6.If you notice any unusual noise or vibration, stop the air compressor and refer to "Troubleshooting".
SHUTDOWN:
1.To stop the air compressor, move the lever on the pressure switch box to the "OFF" position. NEVER stop the air compressor by unplugging it from the power source. This could result in risk of electrocution.
2.Drain air from the air tank by releasing air with an attached air tool or by pulling on the safety relief valve ring.
3.Once pressure in the air tanks register under 10 PSI, open the drain valve under each air tank to drain any moisture.
4.Allow the air compressor to cool down.
5.Wipe air compressor clean and store in a safe, non-freezing area.
MAINTENANCE
Read the instruction manual before performing maintenance. The following procedures must be performed when stopping the air compressor for maintenance or service.
1. Turn off the air compressor.
WARNING: Never assume the air compressor is safe to work on just because it is not operating. It could restart at any time!
2.Disconnect cord from main power supply.
3.Open all drains.
