2-GALLON (7.6 L) AIR COMPRESSOR - 058-7000-2
A. ELECTRIC MOTOR:
The motor is used to power the pump.
B. FUSE:
The fuse is used to protect the motor.
C. POWER SWITCH:
This switch turns the compressor on and off. It is operated manually and when it
is in the ON position, it allows the motor to start if the pressure in the air tank is below the factory
set cut-in pressure, and allows the motor to stop if the pressure in the air tank reaches the factory
set cut-out pressure. Be sure to set this switch to the OFF position when the compressor is not
being used and before unplugging the compressor.
D. AIR TANK:
The tank is where the compressed air is stored.
E. POWER CORD:
This compressor should be
used on a nominal 120 V grounded circuit.
Use a power cord that is equipped with a
grounding plug. Verify that the compressor
is plugged into an outlet that has the same
configuration as the plug. Do not use an
adapter with this compressor.

F. SAFETY VALVE:
This valve is used to prevent system failure by draining pressure from the system
when it reaches a preset level if the pressure switch has not shut down the motor. It will pop open
automatically, or it can be activated manually by pulling the ring on the valve.
G. AIR PRESSURE REGULATOR:
The regulator is used to adjust the pressure inside the line to the
tool that is being used. Turn the knob clockwise to increase the pressure and counter-clockwise to
decrease the pressure.
[
WARNING!
Do not exceed the tool’s maximum working pressure.
H. TANK PRESSURE GAUGE:
The gauge measures the pressure level of the air that is stored in the
tank. It cannot be adjusted by the operator and it does not indicate the pressure inside the line.
I. OUTLET PRESSURE GAUGE:
The gauge measures the regulated outlet pressure.
J. AIR TANK DRAIN VALVE:
The drain valve is used to remove moisture from the air tank after the
compressor is shut off.
WARNING!
Do not attempt to open the drain valve when there is more than
10 PSI of air pressure in the tank.
K. AIR OUTLET:
The outlet is connected to the 1/4” (6.4 mm) NPT air hose.
