(Refer to Fig. 2).
(2) Unplug the plug from power source.
(3) Open the drain cock located at the lower part of
the tank (Fig. 5). Tank pressure should be below
10 psi when draining the tank.
WARNING:
Risk of bursting. When the
tank gets corroded, there is
a risk of breakdown. Water
will condense in the air tank.
If not drained, water will
corrode and weaken the air
tank causing a risk of air tank
rupture. Drain tank daily or
after 4 hours of use. The drain
contains moisture in the air,
abrasion particles, rust, etc..
To drain tank open valve
slowly and tilt compressor

4. About the thermal protection
The thermal protection operates to stop the motor
when a problem such as a motor overload, etc.
occurs.
If the motor stops during operating, reset by pushing
the Reset switch (Refer to Fig. 6).
If the motor does not start or if it stops immediately,
proceed as follows.
(1) Place the power switch in the “OFF” positon and
disconnect the plug from the receptacle (Fig. 2).
(2) Check for the following possible causes
fi
rst: lack
of proper ventilation, or an outside-air or room
temperature that is too high.
(3) If the extension cord does not conform to the
speci
fi
cations given on page 6 replace with an
extension cord such as that shown on page 6. If the
capacity of the power supply is insu
ffi
cient, increase
the power supply capacity to remove the cause of a
fl
ow of excessive current (over-current).
(4) Wait approximately 30 minutes.
(5) Start up. If the motor still stops during operation,
please contact the metabo HPT authorized service
center.
