OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Breaking-in the pump
1.
Set the pressure switch (C) to the OFF position.
2.
Open the tank drain valve (I) by turning it counterclockwise to permit the air to escape and
prevent air pressure build-up in the air tank during the break-in period.
3.
Turn the air pressure regulator (E) counterclockwise until it stops.

4.
Plug in the power cord (K).
NOTE:
A circuit breaker is recommended. If the air compressor is connected to a circuit protected by a
dual-element time delay fuses (type “T” only).
5.
Set the pressure switch (C) to the ON position. The compressor will start. Run the compressor for 30
minutes. If it fails, turn it off immediately and call the toll-free helpline at: 1-800-689-9928. Please note
that breaking-in the unit is only required prior to first use.

CAUTION!
Use a dedicated circuit.
For best performance and reliable starting, the air compressor should be plugged into a dedicated circuit,
as close as
possible to the fuse box or circuit breaker.
The compressor will use the full capacity of a typical 12
