NOTE: When using an accessory or air tool, pressure in the storage tank
decreases. When it reaches a certain low level (cut-in pressure) the motor will
automatically restart and raise the pressure in the storage tank.
5. To shut down compressor, simply move on/off lever to the off position.
6. Allow compressor to cool.
7. Drain storage tank (see Storage Tank in Maintenance Section).
MAINTENANCE
Air Filter
Inspect air filter before each use. Clean filter
with soap and water as necessary. Squeeze
excess moisture from filter and allow to dry before
re-installing. If filter becomes clogged or damaged,
replace it.
WARNING:
Explosive vapors may accumulate in the air tank and cause an explosion,
resulting in serious injury or death.
CAUTION: Do not operate air compressor without air filter.
Storage Tank
The storage tank should be drained after each use or after every
four hours of operation to prevent condensation build-up and
corrosion inside the tanks. To drain tank, slowly and carefully
open drain fitting, tip unit upright and allow water to drain out.
Always drain tank before storing compressor.
DO NOT over tighten drain valve when closing. The drain valve on this tank
seals primarily through the o-ring seal. Over tightening the valve can damage
the o-ring and may cause premature failure. To prevent damage, stop closing
the valve as soon as air can no longer be heard escaping from the valve, or
when finger tight.
NOTE: When draining tank, watch for debris (rust particles). If there appears
to be debris in water, contact your dealer for possible tank replacement. The
appearance of rust inside the tank will compromise its' ability to hold pressure
and can cause bursting.
WARNING:
on the air compressor tank can severely impair tank strength and cause
an extremely hazardous condition. Welding on the tank in any manner
will void the warranty. If warranty service or repairs are needed contact
your nearest authorized servicing dealer. If one does not exist contact
the factory. Unauthorized teardown of the unit will void the factory
warranty
