Operating Instructions
Introduction
Refer to Figure 1 to locate the following
items .
Pressure switch - Auto/Off Switch - In
the AUTO position, the compressor
shuts off automatically when tank
pressure reaches the maximum preset
pressure . After air is used from the tank
and drops to a preset low level, the
pressure switch automatically turns the
motor back on . 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 .
When the pressure switch turns the
motor off you will hear air leaking out
of the pressure switch unloader valve
for a short time . This releases the air
pressure from the discharge tube and
allows the compressor to restart easier .
Regulator - The regulator controls the
amount of air pressure released at the
hose outlet .

ASMe Safety Valve - This valve
automatically releases air if the tank
pressure exceeds the preset maximum .
Discharge tube - This tube carries
compressed air from the pump to the
check valve . This tube becomes very hot
during use . To avoid the risk of severe
burns, never touch the discharge tube .

Tank Drain Valve - 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,
before opening drain valve .
Tank Pressure Gauge - Indicates
amount of air pressure stored in tank .
hose Pressure Gauge - Indicates
amount of air pressure in hose used to
operate tools . This pressure is increased
or decreased by the regulator .
