FEATURES

ON/OFF SWITCH

Placethisswitch(A)intheONpositiontoprovide

automatic power to the pressure switch and

OFF to remove power at the end of each use.

PRESSURE SWITCH

The pressure switch (I) automatically starts the

motor when the air tank pressure drops below

the factory set cut-in pressure.It stops the motor when the air tank

pressure reaches the factory set cut-out pressure.

SAFETY VALVE

If the pressure switch does not shut off the air compressor at its

cut-out pressure setting, the safety valve (G) will protect against

high pressure by popping out at its factory set pressure (slightly

higher than the pressure switch cut-out setting).

CHECK VALVE

When the air compressor is operating, the check valve (F) is

open, allowing compressed air to enter the air tank. When the

air compressor reaches cut-out pressure, the check valve closes,

allowing air pressure to remain inside the air tank.

TANK PRESSURE GAUGE

The tank pressure gauge (B) indicates the D

reserve air pressure in the tank.

OUTLET PRESSURE GAUGE

The outlet pressure gauge (C) indicates

the air pressure available at the outlet

side of the regulator. This pressure is

controlled by the regulator and is always

less than or equal to the tank pressure.

REGULATOR

The regulator (D) controls the air pressure shown on the outlet

pressure gauge. Pull the knob out and turn clockwise to increase

pressure and counterclockwise to decrease pressure. When the

desired pressure is reached push knob in to lock in place.

UNIVERSAL QUICK CONNECT BODIES

The universal Quick Connect body (E) accepts the three most

popular styles of Quick Connect plugs: Industrial, automotive, and

ARO. One hand push-to-connect operation makes connections

simple and easy.

DRAIN VALVE

The drain valve (H) is located at the base of the air

tank and is used to drain condensation at the end

of each use.

See Draining Air Tank under

Maintenance.

COOLING SYSTEM

This compressor contains an advanced design cooling system.

It is normal for this fan to blow air through the vent holes in large

amounts.The cooling system is working when air is expelled.

AIR COMPRESSOR PUMP

The pump compresses air into the air tank. Working air is not

available until the compressor has raised the air tank pressure

above that required at the air outlet.

PRESSURE RELEASE VALVE

The pressure release valve located on the side of the pressure

switch, is designed to automatically release compressed air from

the compressor head and the outlet tube when the air compressor

reaches "cut-out" pressure or is shut off.The pressure release valve

allows the motor to restart freely. When the motor stops running,

air will be heard escaping from this valve for a few seconds. No air

should be heard leaking when the motor is running or after the unit

reaches "cut-out" pressure.

English

MOTOR OVERLOAD PROTECTOR

The motor has a manual thermal overload protector. If the motor

overheats for any reason, the overload protector will shut off the

motor. The motor must be allowed to cool down before restarting.

To restart:

1. Set the On/Auto/Off lever to OFF and unplug unit.

2. Allow the motor to cool.

Plug the power cord into the correct branch circuit receptacle.

4. Set the On/Auto/Off lever to ON/AUTO position.

1. Ensure regulated pressure gauge reads 0 PSI (0 kPa).

2. Pull coupler on Quick Connect body back to release Quick

Connect plug on hose.

Grounding Instructions

WARNING: Risk of Electrical Shock. In the event of a short

circuit, grounding reduces the risk of shock by providing an escape

wire for the electric current. This air compressor must be properly

grounded.

The portable air compressor is equipped with a cord having a

grounding wire with an appropriate grounding plug.

1. Thecord set and plug(M)withthis unit

contains a grounding pin (L).This plug

MUST be used with a grounded outlet

(K).

IMPORTANT: The outlet being used must

be installed and grounded in accordance

with all local codes and ordinances.

2. Ensure the outlet being used has the same configuration as the

grounded plug. DO NOT USE AN ADAPTER.

3. Inspect the plug and cord before each use. Do not use if there

are signs of damage.

4. If these grounding instructions are not completely understood, or

if in doubt as to whether the compressor is properly grounded,

have the installation checked by a qualified electrician.

DANGER: Risk of Electrical Shock. IMPROPER GROUNDING

CAN RESULT IN ELECTRICAL SHOCK.

Do not modify the plug provided. If it does not fit the available

outlet, a correct outlet should be installed by a qualified

electrician.

Repairs to the cord set or plug MUST be made by a qualified

electrician.

Extension Cords

If an extension cord must be used, be sure it is:

• a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding

plug, and a 3-slot receptacle that will accept the plug on

the product

English

• in good condition

• no longer than 50 feet

• 12 gauge (AWG) or larger. (Wire size increases as gauge num-

ber decreases.10 AWG and 8 AWG may also be used. DO NOT

USE 14 OR 16 AWG.)

CAUTION: The use of an undersized extension cord will cause volt-

age to drop resulting in power loss to the motor and overheating.

Instead of using an extension cord, increase the working reach of

the air hose by attaching another length of hose to its end. Attach

additional lengths of hose as needed.

Voltage and Circuit Protection

Refer to the Voltage and Minimum Branch Circuit Requirements

under Pump/Motor Specifications.

CAUTION: Certain air compressors can be operated on a

15 amp circuit if the following conditions are met.

• Voltage supply to circuit must comply with the National Electrical

Code.

• Circuit is not used to supply any other electrical needs.

• Extension cords comply with specifications.

• Circuit is equipped with a 15 amp circuit breaker or 15 amp

time delay fuse. NOTE: If compressor is connected to a circuit

protected by fuses, use only time delay fuses.Time delay fuses

should be marked “D” in Canada and “T” in the US.

If any of the above conditions cannot be met, or if operation of the

compressor repeatedly causes interruption of the power, it may be

necessary to operate it from a 20 amp circuit. It is not necessary

to change the cord set.

Compatibility

NOTE: Always use an air line filter to remove moisture when

spraying paint.

Location

Place the air compressor in a clean, dry and well ventilated area

at least 12" (30 mm) away from the wall or other obstructions that

will interfere with the flow of air. Keep the compressor away from

areas that have dirt and/or volatile fumes in the atmosphere.These

impurities may clog the intake filter and valves, causing inefficient

operation.

WARNING: Theaircompressorpumpandshroudaredesignedto

allowforpropercooling.Theventilationopeningsonthecompressor

are necessary to maintain proper operating temperature. Do not

place rags or other containers on or near these openings.
