CAUTION: RISK FROM NOISE
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
• Under some conditions and
duration of use, noise from
this product may contribute
to hearing loss.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
FOR FUTURE USE
FEATURES
ON/AUTO/OFF SWITCH
Place this switch (A) in the ON/AUTO
position to provide automatic power
to the pressure switch and OFF to
remove power at the end of each
use.
PRESSURE SWITCH
The pressure switch (I) 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 (G) will protect against
high pressure by popping out at its factory set pressure (slightly
higher than the pressure switch cut-out setting).
HOW TO PREVENT IT
• Always wear certified safety
equipment: ANSI S12.6
(S3.19) hearing protection.

CHECK VALVE
When the air compressor is operating, the check valve (F) 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.
TANK PRESSURE GAUGE
The tank pressure gauge (B)
indicates the reserve air pressure
in the tank.
OUTLET PRESSURE GAUGE
The outlet pressure gauge (C)
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.
REGULATOR
The regulator (D) 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.
UNIVERSAL QUICK CONNECT BODY
The universal quick connect body (E) accepts the three most
popular styles of quick connect plugs: Industrial, automotive, and
ARO. One hand push-to-connect operation makes connections
simple and easy.
DRAIN VALVE
The drain valve (H) is located at the base of the air
tank and is used to drain condensation at the end
of each use. See Draining Air Tank under
Maintenance.
