OPERATION
cont.
→
Plug the power cord into the correct receptacle. See Voltage and
Circuit Protection in the Installation Section of this manual.
→
Open the drain valve fully by turning it counterclockwise to allow air to escape
and to prevent air pressure build up in the air tank during the break-in period.
→
Before operating air compressor, remove transportation cap first,
and then insert and tighten breather set.
→
Move the Auto / Off switch to AUTO position. The compressor will start.
→
Run the compressor for 5 minutes. Make sure the drain valve is open
and there is minimal air pressure build-up in the tank.
→
After 5 minutes, move the Auto / Off switch to the OFF position and
close the drain valve (clockwise).
→
Move the Auto / Off switch to AUTO position. The air tank will fill to
„cut-out“ pressure and the motor will stop.
→
The compressor is now ready for use.
→ CHECK OIL LEVEL BEFORE EACH USE.
→ BEFORE ATTACHING AIR HOSE OR ACCESSORIES, MAKE SURE THE AUTO /OFF SWITCH IS
SET TO OFF AND THE AIR REGULATOR IS CLOSED.
→ ATTACH HOSE AND ACCESSORIES.
CAUTION
Compressed air in the unit may contain water condensation.
DO NOT
spray
unfiltered air at an item that could be damaged. Some air-powered tools or accessories may
require filtered air. Check the instructions for the air tool or accessory.
→
Check the manufacturer‘s maximum pressure rating for airtools and accessories. The
regulator outlet pressure must never exceed the maximum pressure rating.
WARNING
Too much air pressure creates a hazardous risk of bursting.
→
Before starting the compressor, pull the ring on the safety valve to make sure the
safety valve operates freely. If the valve is stuck or does not operate smoothly.
It must be replaced with the same type of valve.
WARNING
If the safety valve does not work properly, it could result in over
pressurization which could cause the tank to rupture or explosde.
→
Turn the Auto / Off switch to AUTO and allow the tank pressure to build.
The motor will stop when the tank pressure reaches the „cut-out“ pressure.
→
Open the regulator by turning it clockwise. Adjust the regulator to the correct
pressure setting. The compressor is now ready for use.
→
Always use the compressor in a well-ventilated area that is free of gasoline
or other solvent vapors. DO NOT use the compressor near the spray area.
