Pressure regulator knob
Use the pressure regulator knob to adjust the amount of air being
delivered through the hose.
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.
Regulator pressure gauge
The current line pressure is displayed on the regulator pressure
gauge. This pressure can be adjusted by rotating the pressure
regulator knob.
Safety 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 reset.
Tank pressure gauge
The tank pressure gauge indicates the pressure of the air in the
tank.
Drain valve
The drain valve is used to remove moisture from the air tank after
the air compressor is shut off.
Motor thermal overload protector
This air compressor is equipped with a thermal overload device
which wilt turn the air compressor off automatically, if the air
compressor becomes overheated.
If the motor turns OFF
repeatedly, check for the following possible causes first: Low
Voltage from the outlet. Lack of proper ventilation or outside air
or room temperature too high. Extension cord too long or wrong
gauge wire used.
To reset the air compressor:
•
Turn the air compressor off.
•
Unplug the air compressor, and allow it to cool for 30 minutes.
•
Plug the air compressor into an approved outlet.
•
Turn the air compressor on.
Air filter intake
This filter is designed
to clean air coming into the pump and
requires no maintenance when operated in accordance with the
warnings
and operating
instruction
outlined in this manual. To
ensure the pump continually receives clean, cool, dry air do not
operate this compressor
in dust filled atmosphere.
Ventilation
openings must be kept free from obstructions.
BREAKING
IN THE PUMP
See figures 3 - 4.
•
Check and tighten all bolts, fittings, etc.
• Turn the pressure regulator knob fully clockwise to open the
air flow.
•
Place the switch in the OFF (O) position and plug in the power
cord.
•
Open the drain valve completely.
• Turn the air compress ON ( I ) and run the air compressor for
10 minutes to break in pump parts.
•
Place the switch in the OFF (O) position.
•
Close the drain valve.
