OPERATING PROCEDURES

Start-up (Fig. 1)
1. Follow Pre-Start Checklist under Preparation for Use.
2. Move the On/Off switch to the ON position and allow tank pres-
sure to build. Motor will stop when tank pressure reaches
cut-out pressure.
CAUTION: Risk of unsafe operation. Compressed air from the unit
may contain wa ter condensation and oil mist. Do not spray un fil-
tered air at an item that could be damaged by moisture. Some air
op er ated tools or de vic es may require filtered air. Read the in struc-
tions for the air tool or device.
3. Adjust regulator (D) to desired setting. See Regulator under
Features.
Shut-down (Fig. 1)
1 Move On/Off switch (A) is in the OFF position. NOTE: If finished
using compressor, follow Steps 2 - 6.
2. Turn regulator knob (D) counterclockwise until fully closed.
Ensure regulated pressure gauge reads 0 PSI (0 kPa).
3. Remove hose and accessory.
4. Drain the air tank, see Draining Air Tank under Maintenance.
Ensure air tank pressure gauge reads 0 PSI (0 kPa).
WARNING: Risk of bursting. Drain air tank daily. Water will condense
in air tank. If not drained, water will corrode and weaken the air tank
causing a risk of air tank rupture.
5. Allow the compressor to cool down.
6. Wipe air compressor clean and store in a safe, non-freezing area.
MAINTENANCE

service is performed on the air compressor.
1. Ensure On/Off switch is in the OFF position.
2. Remove air compressor plug from outlet.
3. Drain air tank.
4. Allow air compressor to cool down before starting service.
NOTE: All compressed air systems contain maintenance parts
(e.g., oil, filters, separators) that are periodically replaced. These
used parts may contain substances that are regulated and must be
disposed of in accordance with local, state, and federal laws and
regulations.
NOTE: Take note of the positions and locations of parts during
disassembly to make reassembly easier.
NOTE: Any service operations not included in this section should
be performed by a D WALT factory service center or a D
