7. Turn regulator knob (D) counterclockwise until fully closed. Ensure regulated pressure
gauge reads 0 PSI (0 kPa).
8. Attach hose and accessories.

9. Ensure all covers and labels are in place, legible (for labels) and securely mounted. Do not
use compressor until all items have been verified.
Risk of bursting. Too much air pressure causes a 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)
Do not operate this unit until you read and understand this instruction manual
for safety, operation and maintenance instructions.
BreAK-in proCedure
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 check valve or a compressor pump/motor has been replaced.
1. Ensure the On/Off switch (A) is in the OFF position.
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.
5. Run the compressor for 20 minutes.
6. After 20 minutes, close the drain valve by turning clockwise. The tank will fill to cut-
out pressure and the motor will stop.
7. Compressed air will be available until it is used or bled off.

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 pressure to build. Motor will stop
when tank pressure reaches cut-out pressure.
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 (B) reads 0 PSI (0 kPa).
3. Remove hose and accessory.
Risk of unsafe operation. Firmly grasp air hose in hand when installing or
disconnecting to prevent hose whip.
4. Drain the air tank, see Draining air tank under Maintenance. Ensure air tank pressure
gauge reads 0 PSI (0 kPa).
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.
