BREAK-IN OF THE PUMP
1. Check the oil level in the pump (see "Checking the Oil" in the
maintenance section).
2. Turn the pressure switch to the OFF position (see C).
3. Open the petcock (see F).
CAUTION:
debris that may cause eye injury. Wear safety goggles
when opening petcock.
4. Plug in the power cord.
5. Turn the pressure switch to the AUTO position (see D). The motor
should start. Allow the compressor to run for 30 minutes, to break in
the internal parts.
NOTE:
After about 30 minutes, if the unit does not operate properly,
SHUT DOWN IMMEDIATELY, and contact a qualified service
center. DO NOT return the unit to the store where it was
purchased.
6. After about 30 minutes, turn the pressure switch to the OFF
position (see C).
7. Close the petcock (see E). Turn in the clockwise direction.
8. Turn the pressure switch to the AUTO position. The compressor will
start and fill the tank to the cut-out pressure and stop.
NOTE: As compressed air is used, the pressure switch will restart the
motor automatically to supply more compressed air to the tank.

DAILY START-UP

1. Check the oil level in the pump (see "Checking the Oil" in the
maintenance section).
2. Turn the pressure switch to the OFF position (see C).
Close the tank petcock (see E). Turn in the clockwise direction.
3.
4. Plug in the power cord.
5. Turn the pressure switch to the AUTO position (see D). The pump
will start filling the tank with air. When the air pressure in the tank
reaches the level preset at the factory, the pressure switch will turn
off the electric motor. As air is used and the pressure level in the
tank drops, the pressure switch will start the motor and the pump will
begin refilling the tank.
WARNING:
by the pump. To prevent burns or other injuries, DO
NOT touch the pump or transfer tube while the pump is
running. Allow it to cool before handling or servicing. Keep
children away from the compressor at all times.
MAINTENANCE
WARNING:
automatically. ALWAYS shut off the compressor, remove
the plug from the outlet, and bleed all pressure from the
system before servicing the compressor, and when the
compressor is not in use. Do not use the unit with the
shrouds or belt guard removed. Serious injury could occur
from contact with moving parts.
Regular maintenance will ensure trouble–free operation. Your
electric powered air compressor represents high–quality engineering and
construction; however, even high–quality machinery requires periodic
maintenance. The items listed below should be inspected on a regular
basis.

adjust it to the working pressure of the tool.
WARNING:
lower pressure, turn the knob counterclockwise past
the desired setting, then turn clockwise to reach the
desired pressure. Do not exceed operating pressure
of the tool or accessory being used.
SHUTDOWN
1. Turn the pressure switch to the OFF position (see C).
2. Unplug the power cord.
3. Reduce pressure in the tank through the outlet hose. You
can also pull the relief valve ring (see G) and keep it open
to relieve pressure in the tank.
CAUTION:
propel debris that may cause eye injury. Wear safety
goggles when opening petcock.
4. Open the petcock (see F) to allow moisture to drain from the tank.
