Pressure Switch (not shown):
The pressure switch
automatically starts the motor when the air tank pressure
drops below the factory set “cut-in” pressure. It stops the
motor when the air tank pressure reaches the factory set
Safety Valve:
If the pressure switch does not shut off the
air compressor at its “cut-out” pressure setting, the safety
will protect against high pressure by “popping out”
at its factory set pressure (slightly higher than the pressure
Tank Pressure Gauge:

indicates the air pressure available at the outlet side of the
regulator. This pressure is controlled by the regulator and is
always less than or equal to the tank pressure.

Cooling System (not shown):
This compressor contains
an advanced design cooling system. At the heart of this
cooling system is an engineered fan. It is perfectly normal
for this fan to blow air through the vent holes in large
amounts. You know that the cooling system is working
Air Compressor Pump (not shown):
Compresses air into
the air tank. Working air is not available until the compressor
has raised the air tank pressure above that required at the
Drain Valve:

is located at the base of
the air tank and is used to drain condensation at the end of
Check Valve (not shown):
When the air compressor is
operating, the check valve is “open”, allowing compressed
air to enter the air tank. When the air compressor reaches
“cut-out” pressure, the check valve “closes”, allowing air
Motor Overload Protector (not shown):
The motor has
a thermal overload protector. If the motor overheats for
any reason, the overload protector will shut off the motor.
The motor must be allowed to cool down before restarting.
