PREPARATION FOR USE

Pre-Start Checklist (Fig. 1)
1. Ensure the On/Off switch (L) is in the OFF position.
2. Plug the power cord into the correct branch circuit receptacle. See
Voltage and Circuit Protection under Installation.
3. Ensure air tank is drained, see Draining Air Tank under
Maintenance.
4. Ensure the drain valve is closed.
5. Ensure safety valve (G) is functioning properly, see Checking
Safety Valve under Maintenance.
6. Turn regulator knob (F) counterclockwise until fully closed. Ensure
regulated pressure gauge reads 0 PSI (0 kPa).
7. Attach hose and accessories. NOTE: Always use a minimum
3/8" or greater air hose rated at 300 PSI.
WARNING: Risk of unsafe operation. Firmly grasp hose in hand
when installing or disconnecting to prevent hose whip.

hazardous risk of bursting. Check the manufacturer's maximum
pressure rating for air tools and accessories. The regulator outlet
pressure must never exceed the maximum pressure rating.
Initial Set-up (Fig. 1)

BREAK-IN PROCEDURE

CAUTION: Risk of unsafe operation. Be sure compressor is in
horizontal position before operating.
CAUTION: Risk of property damage. Serious damage may result if
the following break-in instructions are not closely followed.
This procedure is required before the air compressor is put into
service for the first time and when the compressor pump/motor has
been replaced.
1. Ensure the On/Off switch (L) is in the OFF position.
NOTE: If hose is not connected to Quick Connect body, pull coupler
back until it clicks to prevent air from escaping through the quick
connect.
2. Plug the power cord into the correct branch circuit receptacle. See
Voltage and Circuit Protection under Installation.
3. Open the drain valve (counterclockwise) fully to permit air to
escape and prevent air pressure build up in the air tank during
the break-in period.
4. Move the On/Off switch to the ON position. The compressor will
start.
