Introduction

R efer to Figure 3 to locate the

following items.

ON / OFF Switch ( I / O ) - Push

switch to the ON ( I ) position to turn

compressor on. Push switch to the OFF

( O ) position to turn compressor off.

This switch should be in the OFF ( O )

position when connecting /

disconnecting power cord from

electrical outlet or when changing

tools.

Pressure Switch (located

internally)- When the compressor

is turned ON, this switch will shut

compressor off automatically when

tank pressure reaches maximum shut-

off / cut-out pressure. If compressor

remains on and air is depleted from

tank, this switch will allow compressor

to automatically restart at the restart /

cut-in pressure.

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.

Motor Reset - (not shown, located

inside motor). Designed to keep the

motor from overheating. The motor

has a self-hold protector. If the unit

is over worked, a thermal limiter will

shut unit off. If it happens, switch the

unit to the OFF position and unplug

the unit. Wait 30 minutes, plug the

unit in and switch the unit to the

ON position again to resume work.

This compressor is

equipped with an

overload protector which will shut off

motor if it becomes overloaded.

If the overload

protector is

actuated, the motor must be allowed

to cool down for approximately 30

minutes before it will reset.

Regulator - The regulator controls

the amount of air pressure released at

the hose outlet. Turning the regulator

knob clockwise (to the right) will

increase air pressure at the outlet.

Turning the knob counter-clockwise

(to the left) will lower air pressure to

the outlet. Turning knob fully counter-

clockwise will shut off flow of air

completely.

Pressure Gauges - There are two

gauges located next to the regulator.

These gauges read air pressure in

pounds per square inch (psi) The larger

gauge shows pressure at the outlet.

Make sure this gauge reads ZERO

(by adjusting the regulator) BEFORE

changing air tools or disconnecting

hose from outlet. The small gauge

shows pressure in the tank indicating

compressor is building pressure

properly.

ASME Safety Valve - This valve

automatically releases air if the tank

pressure exceeds the preset maximum.

Handle - Designed to move the

compressor.

Installation

LOCATION

It is extremely important to use the

compressor in a clean, well ventilated

area where the surrounding air

temperature will not be more than

100°F.

A minimum clearance of 18 inches

between the compressor and a wall

is required because objects could

obstruct air flow.

Do not locate the

compressor

air inlet near steam, paint spray,

sandblast areas or any other source

of contamination. This debris will

damage the motor.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

1. This product is for use on a

nominal 120 volt circuit and has a

grounding plug that looks like the

plug illustrated in Figure 4. Make

sure the product is connected

to an outlet having the same

conﬁ guration as the plug. This

product must be grounded. In

the event of an electrical short

circuit, grounding reduces risk of

electrical shock by providing an

escape wire for electric current.

This product is equipped with a

cord having a grounding wire

with an appropriate grounding

plug. Plug must be plugged into

an outlet that is properly installed

and grounded in accordance with

all local codes and ordinances.

Improper

use of

grounding plug can result in

a possible risk of electrical

shock!

Do not use a

grounding adapter

with this product!

2. If repair or replacement of cord or

plug is necessary, do not connect

grounding wire to either ﬂ at blade

terminal. The wire with insulation

having an external surface that

is green (with or without yellow

stripes) is the grounding wire.

Never connect

green (or green

and yellow) wire to a live terminal.

3. Check with a qualiﬁ ed electrician

or serviceman if grounding

instructions are not completely

understood, or if in doubt as

to whether product is properly

grounded. Do not modify plug

provided; if it will not ﬁ t outlet,

have proper outlet installed by a

qualiﬁ ed electrician.

Overheating, short

circuiting and ﬁ re

damage will result from inadequate

wiring.

pressure is reached, the compressor

automatically shuts off.

If the compressor is left in the

ON / AUTO position and air is depleted

from the tank by use of a tire chuck,

tool, etc., the compressor will restart

automatically at its preset “cut-in”

pressure. When a tool is being used

continuously, the compressor will cycle

on and off automatically.

In the OFF position, the pressure

switch cannot function and the

compressor will not operate. Make

sure switch is in OFF position when

connecting or disconnecting power

cord from electrical outlet.

Operating Instructions

Maintenance

Disconnect, tag and lock out

power source, then release

all pressure from the system

before attempting to install, service,

relocate or perform any maintenance.

Check compressor often for any visible

problems and follow maintenance

procedures each time compressor is

used.

Safety valve must

be replaced if it

cannot be actuated or it leaks air after

ring is released.

1. Turn compressor off and release

pressure from system. (To release

pressure from system, pull ring

on ASME safety valve. Deflect

escaping air by shielding valve with

one hand as you pull ring with

other hand.) Pull ring until tank is

empty.

A large amount of

fast moving air

will be released when the safety valve

is opened with pressure in the tank.

Wear ANSI approved Z87.1 safety

glasses.

2. Drain moisture from tank by

opening drain valve underneath

tank. Tilt tank to remove all

moisture.

3. Clean dust and dirt from tank,

air lines and pump cover while

compressor is still OFF.

ASME SAFETY VALVE

Do not remove or

attempt to adjust

the safety valve!

Check the safety valve by performing

the following steps:

1. Plug the compressor in and run

until shut off pressure is reached.

2. Wearing safety glasses, pull the

ring on the safety valve to release

pressure from compressor tank.

Use your other hand to deﬂ ect

fast-moving air from being

directed toward your face.

3. The safety valve should

automatically close at

approximately 40 psi - 50 psi. If

the safety valve does not allow

air to be released when you pull

on the ring, or if it does not close

automatically, it MUST be replaced.

DRAIN TANK

With compressor shut off and pressure

released, drain moisture from tank by

opening drain valve underneath tank.

LUBRICATION.

This is an oilless type compressor

requiring no lubrication.

CLEANING

Turn power OFF and clean dust and

dirt from pump cover, tank, and air

lines.

MOISTURE IN COMPRESSED AIR

Moisture in compressed air will

form into droplets as it comes

from an air compressor pump.

When humidity is high or when

a compressor is in continuous use

for an extended period of time,

this moisture will collect in the

tank. When using a paint spray or

sandblast gun, this water will be

carried from the tank through the

hose, and out of the gun as droplets

mixed with the spray material.

IMPORTANT: This condensation

will cause water spots in a paint

job, especially when spraying

other than water based paints. If

sandblasting, it will cause the sand

to cake and clog the gun, rendering

it ineffective.

A ﬁ lter in the air line, located as

near to the gun as possible, will

help eliminate this moisture.

Figure 5

OVERLOAD PROTECTOR

This compressor

is equipped with

a thermal overload protector which

will shut off motor if it becomes

overloaded.

If overload protector shuts motor OFF

frequently, look for the following

causes.

1. Low voltage.

2. Lack of proper ventilation.

If the overload

protector is

actuated, the motor must be allowed

to cool down for 30 minutes before

manual resetting.

END OF OPERATION/STORAGE

1. Turn ON / OFF switch to the OFF

position.

2. Unplug power cord from wall

outlet and wrap around handle

area to prevent damage when not

in use.

3. Wearing safety glasses drain tank

of air by pulling the ring on the

safety valve. Use other hand to

deﬂ ect fast moving air from being

directed toward your face.

4. Drain tank of condensation by

opening drain valve on bottom

of tank. Tank pressure should be

below 10 psi when draining tank.

5. Air hose should be disconnected

from compressor and hung open

ends down to allow any moisture

to drain.

6. Compressor and hose should be

stored in a cool, dry place.
