Description
E
Air Compressor Pump:
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 air outlet.
F
Drain Valve
: The drain valve is located at the base of the air tank and is used to
drain condensation at the end of each use.
G
Check Valve:
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 pressure to remain inside
the air tank.
H
Pressure Release Valve:
The pressure release valve located on the side of the
pressure switch, is designed to automatically release compressed air from the
compressor head and the outlet tube when the air compressor reaches “cut-out”
pressure or is shut off. The pressure release valve allows the motor to restart freely.
When the motor stops running, air will be heard escaping from this valve for a few
seconds. No air should be heard leaking when the motor is running or after the unit
reaches “cut-out” pressure.
I
Motor Overload Reset:
This motor has a manual 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. To restart:
1.
Place the Auto/Off switch in the “Off” position.
2.
Allow the motor to cool.
3.
Depress the red reset button on the motor.
4.
Place the Auto/Off switch in the “Auto” postion to restart the motor.
