electrical power

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 circuit for the best results.
Low voltage and/or an overload circuit can cause the motor's

overload protection system circuit breaker to trip.

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, reliable

performance,  high airflow rate, easy operation and

maintenance
The motor directly drives the eccentric wheel-connecting bar

system, making the piston move reciprocally. The piston is

made from a high-temperature-resistant and abrasion-resistant

nonmetallic material, and is able to function without lubrication

for a long time. This is an Oil-Free Pump/Motor.
Compressed air discharges in the air tank. A pressure gauge

displays the pressure inside the tank. When the pressure

inside the tank rises to 115 PSI, the power is automatically cut

off by the pressure-control switch. When the pressure inside

the tank lowers to 85-90 PSI, the power is turned back on by

the pressure-control switch. This gradually raises the pressure

in the air tank. This procedure happens repeatedly

.

assembly

1.

Connect your air supply hose to the 1/4” air hose connection.

2.

Make sure the drain valve is off and that the power switch is in

the OFF position.

3. 

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

normally.

4.

Insert the power supply cord into the power supply socket.

accessories

(not included)

Recommend are a drain tube and waste container used for the

condensate valve.
This rubber, plastic or pvc tube fits inside the condensate valve to

drain the water from the air dryer to a waste container.

DANGER

There is a danger of electric shock.

Use only undamaged electrical cords.

DO NOT touch bare wires or receptacles.

DO NOT operate air compressor in wet weather or in 
wet conditions.

DO NOT touch air compressor or cords if hands or 
feet are wet.

Ensure that all cords are free of damage before 
connecting to the power supply.

Ensure that you have a sufficient electrical supply for 
supporting the requirements of the motor.

SHOCK

Use caution when using extension cords.

Use an extension cord which is no more than 
25 feet long and at least 14 gauge.

Using an excessively long or thin-wired extension 
cord will cause severe damage to the motor.

Use only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade 
grounding plug.

CAUTION
