The following information relates to protecting YOUR SAFETY and PREVENTING EQUIPMENT PROBLEMS. To help you recognize this
information, we use the following symbols. Please read the manual and pay attention to these sections.
,_ _ - A POTENTIAL HAZARD THAT WILL CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR LOSS OF LIFE.
_ - A POTENTIAL HAZARD THAT COULD CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR LOSS OF LIFE.
rl_'_"j"j"_'_ _ A POTENTIAL HAZARD THAT MAY CAUSE MODERATE INJURY OR DAMAGE TO EQUIPMENT.
1. RISK OF FIRE OR EXPLOSION. Never spray
flammable liquids in a confined area. It is normal for
:_1_ the motor and pressure switch to produce sparks
while operating. If sparks come into contact with
vapors from gasoline or other solvents, they may
ignite, causing fire or explosion. Always operate the
compressor in a well-ventilated area. Do not smoke
while spraying. Do not spray where sparks or flame
are present. Keep compressor as far from spray area
as possible.
RISK OF BURSTING. Rust can weaken the tank.
Drain the condensed water from the tank after each
use to reduce rusting. If a leak is detected in the tank,
replace the tank immediately. Do not weld, drill or
modify the air tank of this compressor. Welding or
modifications on the air compressor tank can severely
impair tank strength and cause an extremely
hazardous condition. Welding or modifying the tank in
any manner will void the warranty.
RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK. A licensed
electrician in accordance with all local and national
codes must install all wiring. Never use an electric air
compressor outdoors when it is raining or on a wet
surface, as it may cause an electric shock.
RISK OF INJURY. This unit starts automatically.
ALWAYS shut off the compressor, remove the plug
from the outlet, and bleed all pressure from the
system before servicing the compressor, and when
the compressor is not in use. Do not operate the unit
with the shroud removed. Serious injury could occur
from contact with moving parts.
RISK OF BURSTING. Check the manufacturer's
maximum pressure rating for air tools and
accessories. Compressor outlet pressure must be
regulated so as to never exceed the maximum
pressure rating of the tool. Relieve all pressure
through the hose before attaching or removing
accessories.

RISK OF BURNS. High temperatures are generated
by the pump and manifold. To prevent burns or other
injuries, DO NOT touch the pump, manifold or
transfer tube while the pump is running. Allow them to
cool before handling or servicing. Keep children away
from the compressor at all times.
RISK TO BREATHING. Be certain to read all labels
when you are spraying paints or toxic materials, and
follow the safety instructions. Use a respirator mask if
there is a chance of inhaling anything you are
spraying. Read all instructions and be sure that your
respirator mask will protect you.
RISK OF EYE INJURY. Always wear ANSI Z87.1
approved safety goggles when using an air
compressor. Never point any nozzle or sprayer toward
a person or any part of the body. Equipment can
cause serious injury if the spray penetrates the skin.
RISK OF BURSTING. Do not tamper with the control
board or adjust the relief valve for any reason. Doing
so voids all warranties. They have been preset at the
factory for the maximum pressure of this unit.
Personal injury and/or property damage may result if
the control board or the relief valve are tampered with.
RISK OF BURSTING. Do not use plastic or pvc pipe
for compressed air. Use only galvanized steel pipe
and fittings for compressed air distribution lines.
RISK TO HEARING. Always wear hearing protection
when using an air compressor. Failure to do so may
result in hearing loss.
RISK TO BREATHING. Never directly inhale the
compressed air produced by a compressor. It is not
suitable for breathing purposes.
The power cord on this product contains lead, a
chemical known to the State of California to cause
cancer, and birth defects or other reproductive harm.
Wash hands after handling.

1. Drain the moisture from the tank on a daily basis. A
clean, dry tank will help prevent corrosion.
2. Pull the pressure relief valve ring daily to ensure that
the valve is functioning properly, and to clear the
valve of any possible obstructions.
3. To provide proper ventilation for cooling, the
compressor must be kept a minimum of 12 inches (31
cm) from the nearest wall, in a well-ventilated area.
4. Fasten the compressor down securely if transporting
is necessary. Pressure must be released from the
tank before transporting.

OVERVIEW \ VUE D'ENSEMBLE \ RESUMEN GENERAL ]
I[_C]E'_; _ BASIC AIR COMPRESSOR COMPONENTS I
Oilless air compressors are factory lubricated for life and
do not require any oil.
The basic components of the air compressor are the
electric motor, pump, digital control panel and tank. The
electric motor (see A) powers the pump. The electric motor is
equipped with an overload protector and an automatic reset. If
the motor becomes overheated, the overload protector will
shut it down to prevent damage to the motor. When the motor
sufficiently cools, it will automatically restart.
The pump (see B) compresses the air and discharges it
into the tank.
The tank (see C) stores the compressed air.
The digital control panel (see D) consists of the on/off
button (E), tank pressure button (F), digital display window (G)
and a tank pressure indicator (H).
As compressed air is used and the pressure level in the
tank drops to the kick-in pressure, the control board restarts
the motor automatically, without warning, and the pump
resumes compressing air. The control board shuts down the
motor when the air pressure in the tank reaches the cut-out
pressure. The functions of these components are described on
pages 8-10.
I_,:,_,c!_ €:LC:MENTSDE BASE gu COMPRESSEUR D'AIR I
Les compresseurs d'air sans huile sont lubrifies & I'usine
et ne requierent aucun huilage.
Les composants de base du compresseur d'air sont le
moteur electrique, la pompe, le panneau de commande
numerique et le reservoir.
Le moteur 61ectrique (A) actionne la pompe. Le moteur
electrique est 6quipe d'un limiteur de surcharge
reenclenchement automatique. Si le moteur surchauffe, le
limiteur coupe I'alimentation pour eviter d'endommager le
moteur. Lorsque le moteur est suffisamment refroidi, il
redemarre automatiquement.
La pompe (B) comprime I'air.
Le r6servoir (C) contient I'air comprime.
Le panneau de commande numerique (voir D) comprend la
touche marche/arr&t (E), la touche de pression du reservoir
(F), la fen&tre d'affichage numerique (G) et I'indicateur de
pression du reservoir (H).
Lorsque I'appareil utilise de I'air comprime et Iorsque le
niveau de pression du reservoir tombe a la pression de
demarrage, le tableau de commande fait redemarrer
automatiquement le moteur, sans avertissement et la pompe
recommence a comprimer I'air. Le tableau de commande
coupe le moteur Iorsque la pression d'air du reservoir atteint la
pression de coupure. Les fonctions de ces composants sont
decrites aux pages 8 a 10.
Los compresores de aire sin aceite se lubrican en f4_brica
para toda su vida Qtil, y no requieren aceite.
COMPONENTES BASlCOS DEL
COMPRESOR DE AIRE
Los componentes b4_sicos del compresor de aire son el
motor electrico, la bomba, el panel de control digital y el

un reajuste autom4_tico. Si el motor se sobrecalienta, el
protector contra sobrecargas Io apagara para evitar que sufra
dar_os. Cuando el motor se enfrie Io suficiente, volver& a
arrancar autom&ticamente.
La bomba (vea B) comprime el aire y Io descarga hacia el
tanque.
El tanque (vea C) almacena el aire comprimido.
El panel de control digital (ver D) consta del bot6n de
encendido/apagado (ON/OFF) (E), del bot6n para la presi6n
del tanque (F), de la ventana de la pantalla digital (G) y del
indicador de la presi6n del tanque (H).
AI utilizar el aire comprimido y cuando el nivel de presi6n
del tanque baja hasta la presion de arranque, el tablero de
control reinicia autom&ticamente el motor, sin advertencia, y la
bomba comienza a comprimir el aire. El tablero de control
apaga el motor cuando la presi6n del aire en el tanque
alcanza la presi6n de corte. Las funciones de estos
componentes se describen en las p4_ginas 8 a 10.

ELECTRICAL WIRING
ELECTRICAL POWER REQUIREMENTS
SPI_CIFICATIONS DE L'ALIMENTATION I_LECTRIQUE
REQUERIMIENTOS DE ALIMENTACION ELI_CTRICA
I Check with a licensed electrician if the grounding instructions
are not completely understood, or if in doubt as to whether the
product is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided;
if it will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a
licensed electrician.
Refer to the air compressor's serial label for the unit's
voltage and amperage requirements.
Use a dedicated circuit.
For best performance and reliable starting, the air
compressor must be plugged into a dedicated circuit, as
close as possible to the fusebox or circuit breaker. The
compressor will use the full capacity of a typical 15 amp
household circuit. If any other electrical devices are drawing
from the compressor's circuit, the compressor may fail to start.
Low voltage or an overloaded circuit can result in sluggish
starting that causes the motor overload protection system or
circuit breaker to trip, especially in cold conditions.
NOTE: A circuit breaker is recommended. If the air
compressor is connected to a circuit protected by a fuse, use
dual element time delay fuses (Buss Fusetron type "T" only).
EXTENSION CORDS I
NOTE: Avoid use of extension cords.
For optimum performance, plug the compressor power
cord directly into a grounded wall socket. Do not use an
extension cord unless absolutely necessary, instead, use a
longer air hose to reach the area where the air is needed.
If use of an extension cord cannot be avoided, the cord
should be no longer than 100 feet and be a minimum wire size
of 12 gauge (AWG). Do not use a 16 or 14 gauge extension
cord.
Use only 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. Make sure your extension cord is in good
condition. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage,
resulting in loss of power and overheating. The smaller the
gauge number, the heavier the cord.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS I
This product should be grounded. In the event of an
electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric
shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current.
This product is equipped with a cord having a grounding
wire with an appropriate grounding plug. The plug must be
plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinance.
_ Improper installation of the grounding
plug can result in a risk of electric shock. If repair or
replacement of the cord or plug is necessary, do not
connect the grounding wire to either flat blade
terminal. The wire insulation having an outer surface
that is green with or without yellow stripes is the
grounding wire.
This product is for use on a nominal 115 volt circuit. A cord
with a grounding plug, as shown here, shall be used.
Make sure that the product is connected to an outlet
having the same configuration as the plug (see Figure 1). No
adapter should be used with this product.
CABLAGE F:LECTIQUE
Pour vous renseigner sur les normes d'intensite et de
tension de I'appareil, refGrez-vous a I'etiquette du numero de
serie du compresseur d'air.
I
Utilisez un circuit s6par&
Pour obtenir le meilleur rendement possible et une
mise en marche fiable, le compresseur d'air doit 6tre
install_ sur un circuit s_par6, aussi pros que possible
d'une boite & fusibles ou d'un disjoncteur. Le compresseur
utilise toute la capacite d'un circuit a usage domestique typique.
Si d'autres appareils electriques tirent du courant sur le circuit
du compresseur, il est possible que le compresseur ne puisse
pas demarrer. Si la tension est insuffisante ou si le circuit est
surcharge, le demarrage risque d'Gtre lent et d'entrafner en
consequence le declenchement du disjoncteur ou de
I'interrupteur de remise en marche du moteur, surtout s'il fait
froid.
REMARQUE : II est recommande d'utiliser un disjoncteur.
Si le compresseur est branche sur un circuit proteg6 par un
fusible, utilisez des fusibles temporises & double el6ment (Buss
Fusetron de type <<T>>seulement).
RALLONGES I
REMARQUE : Evitez d'utiliser des rallonges.
Pour obtenir un rendement optimum, branchez le c_ble
d'alimentation du compresseur directement sur une prise de
courant mise a la terre. N'utilisez pas de rallonge sauf
nGcessite absolue. Utilisez plutGt un tuyau flexible plus long
pour atteindre la zone oQ I'air est necessaire.
S'il I'utilisation d'une rallonge est inevitable, le cordon
electrique ne dolt pas depasser 30 m (100 pi) et dolt 6tre d'un
calibre minimum de 12 (AWG). N'utilisez pas une rallonge de
calibre 16 ou 14.

I
A
"'°-'L''"'L''To avoid personal injury, always shut off and
unplug the compressor and relieve all air pressure from
the system before performing any service on the air
compressor.
Regular maintenance will ensure trouble free operation.
Your electric powered air compressor represents high quality
engineering and construction; however, even high quality
machinery requires periodic maintenance. The items listed
below should be inspected on a regular basis.
DRAINING THE TANK I
I
_1_ _Condensation will accumulate in the
tank. To prevent corrosion of the tank from the inside,
this moisture must be drained at the end of every
workday. Be sure to wear protective eyewear. Relieve
the air pressure in the system and open the petcock
on the bottom of the tank to drain (See B and D) on
pages 13, 14 and 15.
NOTE: In cold climates, drain the tank after each use to
reduce problems with freezing of water
condensation.
CHECKING THE RELIEF VALVE J
Pull the relief valve daily to ensure that it is operating
properly and to clear the valve of any possible obstructions.

Tirezchaque jour sur lasoupape de decharge pour vous
assurer qu'ellefonctionne correctement et eliminertoutes les
obstructions6ventuelles.
Check that all connections are tight. A small leak in any of
the hoses or pipe connections will substantially reduce the
performance of your air compressor. If you suspect a leak,
spray a small amount of soapy water around the area of the
suspected leak with a spray bottle. If bubbles appear, repair or
replace the faulty component. Do not overtighten any
connections.
STORAGE
Before storing the compressor for a prolonged period, use
an air blow gun to clean all dust and debris from the
compressor. Disconnect the power cord and coil it up. Pull the
pressure relief valve to release all pressure from the tank.
Drain all moisture from the tank. Cover the entire unit to protect
it from moisture and dust.
ENTRETIEN J
-' _ u • Pour eviter les risques de
blessures, arr6tez et debranchez toujours le compresseur
et liberez toute la pression d'air dans le circuit avant
de proceder a I'entretien.
L'entretien r6gulier de I'appareil permettra d'assurer un
fonctionnement sans problemes. Votre compresseur d'air
61ectrique est un appareil de haute qualite ; toutefois, m6me les
machines de haute qualite necessitent un entretien periodique.
Les composants enum6r6s ci-dessous doivent 6tre inspectes
requli6rement.
VIDANGE DU R_:SERVOIR I
d
,i_ -' _ u • De la condensation se
forme dans le reservoir. Pour eviter la formation de
corrosion depuis I'interieur du reservoir, cette
condensation dolt 6tre 6vacuee & la fin de chaque
journee de travail. Veillez & porter des lunettes de
protection. Liberez la pression d'air dans le circuit et
ouvrez le robinet de purge en bas du reservoir pour
vidanger (Voir Bet D) aux pages 13, 14 et 15.
REMARQUE :Dans les climats froids, purger le reservoir
apres chaque utilisation afin de reduire les problemes de gel
d'eau de condensation.
ESSAI D'#TANCHEIT#
Assurez-vous que tousles raccords sont serres. Le
rendement de votre compresseur peut 6tre reduit de maniere
significative en presence d'une petite fuite d'air dans les tuyaux
fiexibles, ou les raccords de tuyauterie. Si vous suspectez une
fuite, vaporisez un peu d'eau savonneuse autour de la zone. Si
des bulles apparaissent, reparez ou remplacez le composant
defectueux. Ne serrez pas trop.
ENTREPOSAGE
Avant d'entreposer le compresseur pour une periode
prolongee, utilisez une soufflette pour nettoyer toute la
poussiere et tousles debris du compresseur. Debranchez le
cordon d'alimentation et enroulez-le. Tirez sur la soupape de
decharge pour liberer toute la pression dans le reservoir.
