Oilless Compressors
Operation
Pressure
Switch
- Aut_Off
Switch - In
the ON position, the compressor shuts
off automatically
when tank pressure
reaches the maximum
preset pressure.
The compressor will automatically
restart
when it reaches the minimum
preset pressure. In the OFF position.
the compressor will not operate.
This
switch should be in the OFF position
when connecting or disconnecting
the
power cord from the electrical
outlet
or when changing
air tools.
Regulator
- The regulator
controls the
amount of air pressure released at the
hose outlet.

Valve
- This valve
automatically
releases air if the tank
pressure exceeds the preset maximum.

MOISTURE
IN COMPRESSED
AIR
Moisture
in compressed air will
form into droplets as it comes from
an air compressor pump. When
humidity
is high Or when a
compressor
is in continuous
use for
an extended
period of time, this
moisture
will collect in the tank.
When using a paint spray or
sandblast gun, this water will be
carried
from the tank through
the
hose, and out of the gun as
droplets
mixed with the spray
material.
IMPORTANT:
This condensation
will cause water spots in a paint
job, especially when spraying other
than water
based paints.
If
sandblasting,
it will cause the sand
to cake and clog the gun,
rendering
it ineffective.
A filter in
the air line (MP3105).
located as
near to the gun as possible,
will
help eliminate
this moisture.

Petcock
-This valve is located on
the bottom of the tank, Use this valve
to drain moisture
from the tank daily
to reduce the risk of corrosion.
Reduce tank pressure below 10 PSI.
then drain moisture
from tank daily to
avoid tank corrosion
Drain moisture
from tank(s) by opening
the drain
petcock
located underneath
the tank.
