Operation
(Cont.)
bEFORE FIRST START-UP
bREAK-IN PROCEDURE
(Complete this procedure before using
compressor for the first time. Once
completed, it is not necessary to repeat.)
1. Turn regulator knob fully clockwise (to
the right) to open air flow and open
drain valve.
2. Turn ON/OFF switch to OFF position.
3. Plug in power cord.
4. Turn ON/OFF switch to ON position
and run compressor for 30 minutes.
5. Turn ON/OFF switch to OFF position.
6. Unplug power cord.
7. Close drain valve.
The compressor is now ready for use.
bEFORE EACH START-UP
OPERATING PROCEDURE
1. Turn regulator knob fully counter
clockwise (to the left) to close air flow.
2. Connect air hose to outlet of
regulator.
3. Turn On/Off Switch to OFF position.
4. Plug in power cord.
5. Turn On/Off Switch to ON position
and let compressor run until it reaches
automatic shutoff pressure.
6. Attach tire chuck or tool to end of hose.
7. Turn regulator knob clockwise (to
the right) to desired pressure of tool
being used.
ON/OFF CYCLING OF COMPRESSOR
In the ON position, the compressor
pumps air into the tank. When a shut-off
(preset "cut-out") pressure is reached,
the compressor automatically shuts off.
If the compressor is left in the ON
position and air is depleted from
the tank by use of a tire chuck, tool,
etc., the compressor will restart
automatically at its preset "cut-in"
pressure. When a tool is being used
continuously, the compressor will cycle
on and off automatically.
In the OFF position, the pressure switch
cannot function and the compressor
will not operate. Make sure switch
is in OFF position when connecting
or disconnecting power cord from
electrical outlet.
ASME SAFETY VALVE
Do not remove or
attempt to adjust
the safety valve!
Check the safety valve by performing
the following steps:
1. Plug the compressor in and run until
shut off pressure is reached (see
Operating Procedure).
2. Wearing safety glasses, pull the ring
on the safety valve (see Figure 6) to
release pressure from compressor
tank. Use your other hand to deflect
fast-moving air from being directed
toward your face.
Figure 6
3. The safety valve should automatically
close when pressure in the tank has
been released. If the safety valve does
not allow air to be released when you
pull on the ring, or if it does not close
automatically, it MUST be replaced.
Safety valve must
be replaced if it
cannot be actuated or it leaks air after
ring is released.
RAPID INFLATION TECHNOLOGY™
(RIT)
This compressor is equipped with our
advanced RIT valve. This valve will
provide air to the air hose instantly
so you don't need to wait for your
tank to fill up. As soon as you turn the
compressor on it is ready to perform all
of your inflation tasks. You never again
have to wait for your tank to fill with
air before you inflate your vehicle tires,
bike tires, sports balls, or pool toys.
If you are using your compressor to
run air tools you should allow the tank
to fill completely with air before you
begin using the tools. This will allow the
compressor to store up the energy in
the tank and maximize the performance
and run time of your tool.
instant
air hose
will get hot while the
compressor is on and during
the inflation process.

PRESSURE GAUGES
Gauge attached to regulator indicates
air pressure going to hose (and any tool
attached to end of hose).
Gauge attached to pressure switch
indicates air pressure in tank.
Maintenance
Release all pressure
and disconnect
power before making any repair.
1. Check compressor for any visible
problems, especially check air filter to
be sure it is clean.
2. Pull ring on safety valve and allow it to
snap back to normal position (Figure 6).
Safety valve must
be replaced if it
cannot be actuated or it leaks air after ring
is released.
3. Daily with compressor shut off:
Depressurize system prior to draining
tank. Drain moisture from tanks by
opening drain cocks on the side or
underneath end of tank.
NOTE: Drain cup should be emptied
regularly.
Figure 7
Do not remove drain
plug with tank under pressure.
4. Turn power OFF and clean dust and dirt
from motor, tank, air lines and pump
cooling fins.
NOTE: The air filter in the filter housing on
the side of the head must be checked and
cleaned periodically, more often if used
under very dusty conditions or when a
great deal of fog from spraying is allowed
to circulate near unit.
IMPORTANT: Unit should be located as far
from spraying area as hose will allow to
prevent over-spray from clogging filter.
