electrical power requirements

before using the air compressor, refer to the serial label for voltage

and amperage requirements. Make sure you have a sufficient

electrical supply for supporting the motor's requirements. 
use a dedicated 15 amp circuit for the best results.
Low voltage and/or an overload circuit can cause the motor's

electrical extension cords

Inspect all electrical extension cords to ensure that they are free of

damage.
When using an extension cord, use a heavy-duty cord that is no

more than 25 feet long and at least 14 gauge.use only a 3-wire

extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug.

Introduction

This air compressor features a compact structure, stable

performance, a high airflow rate, easy operation and maintenance.

because the air compressor produces no oil in the airflow, it can be

used as an independent air supply machine for situations in which

oil in the airflow is an issue. The motor directly drives the pistons

and is able to function without lubrication for a long period of  time.

assembly

1.

Connect your air hose or air fitting to the 3/8” port located on the

regulator.

2.

Make sure that the pressure switch is in the OFF position.

3.

ensure that the power supply you are going to use is operating

normally. use a dedicated 220 Volt outlet. (No 208 Volts)

4.

Insert the power supply cord into the power supply socket.
