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.
_lt _ - A POTENTIAL HAZARD THAT COULD CAUSE SERIOUS _NJURY OR LOSS OF UFE.
_ - A POTENTIAL HAZARD THAT MAY CAUSE MODERATE _NJURY OR DAMAGE TO EQUIPMENT,
A_ 6.
R_SK OF FIRE OR EXPLOSION. Never spray
flammable liquids in a confined area. It is norma! for
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-venflated area. Do not smoke
while spraying. Do not spray where sparks or flame
are present. Keep compressor as far from spray area
as possible.
RBK 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, dril! 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 nationa!
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.
RBK OF _NJURY. 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.
R_SK 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 al! pressure
through the hose before attaching or removing
accessories.

13.
R_SK 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. Al!ow them to
cool before handling or servicing. Keep children away
from the compressor at all times.
R_SK TO BREATHING. Be certain to read al! 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 al! 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 adjust the pressure
switch or 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 iniury
and/or property damage may result if the pressure
switch 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. Pul! 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.
5.
6.
7.
Protect the air hose and electric cord from damage
and puncture. Inspect them weekly for weak or worn
spots, and replace if necessary.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not expose to
rain. Store indoors.
Never operate the compressor if the power cord or
plug are damaged. Take the equipment to the nearest
Authorized Service Center, and a specialist technician
will replace it.

OVERVIEW \ VUE D'ENSEMBLE \ RESUMEN GENERAL
F_E,_!;_i,_ BASIC AiR COMPRESSOR COMPONENTS ]
OiHess 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, pressure switch, 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
wileshut it down to prevent damage to the motor. When the
motor sufficientJy cooEs,it wiLEautomatically restart.
The pump (see B) compresses the air and discharges it
into the tank.
The tank (see C) stores the compressed air.
The pressure switch (see D) shuts down the motor and
reJieves air pressure in the pump and transfer tube when the
air pressure in the tank reaches the kick-out pressure. As
compressed air is used and the pressure level in the tank
drops to the kick-in pressure, the pressure switch restarts the
motor automatically, without warning, and the pump resumes
compressing air.
_ _,:,_'_,IELEMENTSDE BASE DU COMPRESSEUR D'AIR]
Les compresseurs d'air sans huile sont lubrifi6s a I'usine
et ne requierent aucun huilage.
Les 616ments de base du compresseur d'air sent le

limiteur coupe I'alimentation pour 6viter d'endommager le
moteur. Lorsque le moteur est suffisamment refroidi, il
red6marre automatiquement.
La pompe (B) comprime !'air.
Le reservoir (C) contient I'air comprim6.
Le manostat (D) arrete le moteur et libere la pression
d'air dans la pompe et le tube de transfert quand la pression
dans le r6servoir atteint la pression de fermeture. Au fur et
mesure que I'air comprime est utilise et que le niveau de
pression dans le reservoir baisse iusqu'a la pression
d'ouverture, le manostat remet le moteur en marche
automatiquement, sans avertissement, et la pompe reprend la
compression d'air.

ELECTRICAL POWER REQUIREMENTS
SPECIFICATIONS DE L'AUMENTATION €:LECTRIQUE
REQUERIMIENTOS DE ALJMENTACI6N ELC:CTRICA
ELECTRICAL WIRING ] Check with a licensed electrician if the grounding instructions
are not completely understood, or if in doubt as to whether the
Refer to the air compressor's serial label for the unit's product is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided;
if it will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a
voltage and amperage requirements.
licensed electrician.
Use a dedicated circuit
For best performance and reliable starting, the air
compressor must be plugged into a dedicated circuit, as
close as possiMe to the fusebox or circuit breaker. The
compressor wiiI 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 ]
NOTE: Avoid use of extension cords.
For optimum performance, plug the compressor power
cord directly into a grounded wal! 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-s!ot 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 ]
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 insta!led and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinance.
• IL _ 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
termina!. 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 ¢:LECTIQUE
Pour vous renseigner sur les normes d'intensite et de
tension de Fapparei!, r6f6rez-vous a 1'6tiquette du numero de
serie du compresseur d'air.
UtiHsez un circuit s_par_
Pour obtenir te meiHeur rendement possible et une
raise en marche fiable, le compresseur d'air doit _tre
instaH_ sur un circuit separ_, aussi pros que possiMe
d'une bofte a fusibles ou d'un disjoncteur. Le compresseur
utilise toute la capacit6 d'un circuit a usage domestique typique.
Si d'autres appareils 61ectriques tirent du courant sur le circuit
du compresseur, i! est possible que le compresseur ne puisse
pas d6marrer. Si la tension est insuffisante ou si le circuit est
surcharg6, le d6marrage risque d'Stre lent et d'entratner en
cons6quence le d6denchement du disjoncteur ou de
I'interrupteur de remise en marche du moteur, surtout s'il fait
froid.
REMARQUE : II est recommand6 d'utiliser un disjoncteur.
Si le compresseur est branch6 sur un circuit prot6g6 par un
fusible, utilisez des fusibles temporis6s a double el6ment (Buss
Fusetron de type <<T>>seulement).
RALLONGES ]
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
n6cessit6 absolue. Utilisez plut6t un tuyau flexible plus long
pour atteindre la zone o_ I'air est n6cessaire.
S'il I'utilisation d'une ral!onge est inevitable, le cordon
61ectrique ne doit pas d6passer 30 m (100 pi) et doit 6tre d'un
calibre minimum de 12 (AWG). N'utilisez pas une rallonge de
calibre 16 ou 14.

_To avoid personal injury, always shut off and
unplug the compressor and relieve al! air pressure from
the system before performing any service on the air
compressor.
MAINTENANCE _ ENTRETIEN \ MANTEN_MIENTO 1
MAINTENANCE ] _,_h VERIFICATION DE LA SOUPAPE DE D#CHARGE]
Tirez chaque jour sur la soupape de decharge pour vous
assurer qu'elle fonctionne correctement et 61iminer toutes les
obstructions 6ventuelles.
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 ]
_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 11, 12and 13.
NOTE: In cold climates, drain the tank after each use to
reduce problems with freezing of water
condensation.
CHECKING THE RELIEF VALVE ]
Pull the relief valve daily to ensure that it is operating properly
and to clear the valve of any possible obstructions.
TESTING FOR LEAKS i
J
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 smal! 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 b!ow 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
LIk _Pour 6viter les risques de
blessures, arr6tez et debranchez toujours le compresseur
et lib6rez toute la pression d'air dans le circuit avant
de proc6der a I'entretien.
L'entretien regulier de Fapparei! permettra d'assurer un
fonctionnement sans problemes. Votre compresseur d'air
61ectrique est un appareil de haute qualit6 ; toutefois, m6me les
machines de haute qualit6 necessitent un entretien p6riodique.
Les composants 6numer6s ci-dessous doivent 6tre inspect6s
r6qulierement.
WDANGE DU RESERVOIR
_ll _De la condensation se
forme dans le reservoir. Pour 6viter la formation de
corrosion depuis !'int6rieur du r6servoir, cette
condensation doit 6tre 6vacuee a la fin de chaque
journ6e de travai!. Veillez a 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 11, 12 et 13.
REMARQUE : Dans les climats froids, purger le r6servoir
apr6s chaque utilisation afin de r6duire les problemes de gel
d'eau de condensation.
ESSAI D'¢:TANCHEIT_:
Assurez-vous que tousles raccords sont serres. Le
rendement de votre compresseur peut _tre r6duit de maniere
significative en pr6sence d'une petite fuite d'air dans les tuyaux
flexibles, ou les raccords de tuyauterie. Si vous suspectez une
fuite, vaporisez un peu d'eau savonneuse autour de la zone. Si
des bulles apparaissent, r6parez ou remplacez le composant
defectueux. Ne serrez pas trop.
ENTREPOSAGE
Avant d'entreposer le compresseur pour une p6riode
prolong6e, utilisez une soufflette pour nettoyer toute la
poussiere et tous les debris du compresseur. D6branchez le
cordon d'alimentation et enroulez-le. Tirez sur la soupape de
d6charge pour libSrer toute la pression darts le r6servoir.
Evacuez toute I'humidit6 du reservoir. Couvrez tout I'appareil
pour le prot6ger de I'humidit6 et de la poussiere.
MANTENIMiENTO
_Para evitar lesiones personales,
siempre apague y desenchufe e! compresor y alivie toda la
presi6n de a_redel sistema antes de realizar algOn tipo de
servicio en eI compresor de aire.
E! mantenimiento regular asegurara una operaci6n sin
problemas. Su compresor de aire con alimentaci6n ei6ctrica
representa Io meior en ingenieria y construcci6n; sin embargo,
aOn la maquinaria de meior calidad requiere un mantenimiento
peri6dico. Los elementos enumerados a continuaciSn deben
inspeccionarse de manera regular.
DESAGUE DEL TANQUE
_La condensaci6n se
._j_ cumular_ en el tanque. Para evitar la corrosi6n del
tanque desde el interior, esta humedad debe ser
drenada al final de cada dia de trabajo. AsegOrese de
utilizar protecci6n ocular. Alivie la presiOn de aire en
el sistema y abra la Ilave de descompresi6n que se
encuentra en e! fondo del tanque para drenar (Vea B
y D) en las p_ginas 11, 12 y 13.
NOTA: En climas frios, drene e! tanque despues de cada
uso a fin de reducir !os problemas por el congelamiento del
agua de condensaci6n.
REViSiON DE LA V.&LVULA DE ALIVlO
Tire de la valvula de alivio todos los dias para asegurarse
de que este operando correctamente y para eliminar cualquier
obstrucci6n posible de la misma.
DETECClON DE FUGAS
Compruebe que todas las conexiones esten ajustadas.
Una pequeda fuga en cualquiera de las mangueras, o tuberia
reducira de manera substancial e! rendimiento de su
compresor de mire. Si sospecha la existencia de una fuga,
rocie una pequeda cantidad de agua iabonosa alrededor de la
zona con una botella rociadora. Si aparecen burbuias, selle y
aiuste nuevamente la conexi6n. No aiuste demasiado.
ALMACENAMIENTO 1
Antes de almacenar e! compresor durante periodos
pro!ongados, use un soplete de aire para limpiar todo e! polvo
y suciedad de! compresor. Desconecte el cordon el6ctrico,
