STORAGE
Before you store the air
compressor, make sure you do
the following:
1. Review the “Maintenance” and
“Operating Procedures”
sections and perform
maintenance as necessary. Be
sure to drain water from the
air tank.
2. Protect the electrical cord and
air hose from damage (such as
being stepped on or run over).
Store the air compressor in a
clean and dry location.
DESCRIPTION OF
OPERATION
DRAIN VALVE: The drain valve
is located at the bottom of the
air tank and is used to drain
condensation at the end of
each use.
MOTOR THERMAL OVERLOAD
PROTECTOR: The electric motor
has
thermal overload
protector. If the motor overheats
for any reason, the thermal
overload protector will shut off
the
the unit will automatically reset.
motor. After the motor cools
ON/AUTO - OFF SWITCH: Turn
this switch to “on” to provide
automatic power to the pressure
switch and to “off” to remove
power when finished using the
compressor or when compressor
will be left unattended.
AIR INTAKE FILTER: This filter is
designed to clean air coming into
the compressor pump. This filter
must always be clean and free
from obstructions. See
“Maintenance”.
AIR COMPRESSOR PUMP: To
compress air, the piston moves
up and down in the cylinder. On
the down stroke, air is drawn in
through the air intake valve. The
exhaust valve remains closed.
On the upstroke of the piston, air
is compressed. The intake valve
closes and compressed air is
forced out through the exhaust
valve, through the outlet tube,
through the check valve and into
the air tank. Useable air is not
available until the compressor
has raised the air tank pressure
above that required at the air
outlet.
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.
PRESSURE SWITCH
UNLOADING VALVE: The
pressure switch unloading 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
