Adjustment of outlet pressure
Pull the pressure regulator knob to allow the knob to
rotate. Then, adjust the outlet pressure to the required
level by turning the pressure regulator knob clockwise
to increase the outlet pressure and counterclockwise
to decrease it.
A regulator pressure gauge is provided to show when
the required pressure is reached.
When adjusting the pressure, check and make sure
that a tank pressure gauge for the tank has the
pressure level that is higher than that of the pressure
to be adjusted.
It is also imperative that you make adjustment by
slowly starting up the pressure from the level that is
lower than the pressure to be adjusted.
After adjusting the outlet pressure, push in the
pressure regulator knob to lock the knob and use the
tool.
NOTE:
Before connecting or disconnecting air tools, turn
the regulator knob counterclockwise to stop the
fl
ow of air.
○
Following all safety precautions in this manual and the
manufacturer’s instructions in the air tool manual, you
may now use your air-powered tool.
○
If using an in
fl
ation accessory with a quick-connect
fi
tting, control the amount of air
fl
ow with the
pressure regulator knob. Turning the knob fully
counterclockwise will completely stop the
fl
ow of air.
NOTE:
Always use the minimum amount of pressure
necessary for your application. Using a higher
pressure than needed will drain air from the tank
more rapidly and cause the unit to cycle on more
frequently.
○
When
fi
nished, always drain the tank and remove
the battery. Never leave the unit plugged in and/or
running unattended.
WARNING
Check the air tool manual to ensure the correct
air pressure regulator setting for optimum
operation of your air tools. If you are using an
air tool not originally included in the package
contents list (not necessarily supplied with the
air compressor model you have purchased), your
tool may require more air consumption than this
air compressor is designed to supply.
Always read your air tool owner’s manual to
match the correct air supply to your air tool to
avoid damage to the tool or risk of personal
injury.
NOTE
: When the compressor is new, it will require a
“break-in” period to reach maximum performance.
The typical break-in period is four discharge
cycles of the battery using the BSL36B18 battery.
DRAINING THE TANK
To help prevent tank corrosion and keep moisture out of
the air used, the tank of the compressor should be drained
daily.
To drain the tank: (Fig. 15)
○
Verify that the compressor is turned o
ff
.
○
Holding the handle, tilt the compressor toward the
drain valve so that it’s set in a lower position.
○
Open the drain valve by rotating it 1/4 turn
counterclockwise.
○
Keep the compressor tilted until all moisture has been
removed.
○
Drain moisture from tank into a suitable container.
