The basic components of the air compressor are the electric motor, pump,
pressure switch and tank (see Fig. 1).
The electric motor (see a) powers the pump. The electric motor is equipped
with an overload protector to help prevent possible motor burnout. If the motor
becomes overheated, the overload protector will shut it down. Should this
occur, allow the motor to cool for 10-15 minutes, then press (never force) the
motor reset switch to restart the motor.
The pump (see b) compresses the
air and discharges it into the tank.
The tank (see c) stores the
compressed air.
The pressure switch (see D) shuts
down the motor and relieves air
pressure in the pump and transfer
tube when the air pressure in the
tank reaches the kick–out pressure.
As compressed air is used and
the pressure level in the tank
drops to the kick–in pressure, the
pressure switch restarts the motor
automatically, without warning and
the pump resumes compressing air.
The air line outlet (see e). Connect 1/4" NPT air hose to this outlet.
