GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF AIR COMPRESSOR
The air compressor pump works with the up and down of a piston in the cylinder. During the
down-stroke, ambient air is drawn in through the inlet valve, while the discharge valve remains
closed. On the up-stroke of the piston, the air is forced into the compressor tank through the
discharge valve and the check valve. Through this controlled action, air is forced into the tank
to a preset pressure. The pressure switch regulates the pressure and controls the
stop/start of the motor. Working air is not available until the pressure in the air tank is built up.
The air inlet filter openings must be kept clear of obstructions.
All tools require specific air pressure to operate properly. Consult your air tool manual for those
requirements and safety instructions. There are a variety of air tools available that will operate
efficiently with this air compressor. For best results, always compare the air tool requirements to
your compressor output specifications. A tool that requires a lot of continuous air, such as a
sander, will not operate effectively with a small tank compressor. A tool that requires little air,
such as a brad nail gun, will operate with a small tank compressor very effectively. Learn your
air tool power requirements, match your air tools to your compressor correctly and this
compressor will perform effectively.

INSTALLATION
5.1
:
MECHANICAL
Use the compressor in a clean, dry and well-ventilated area. The compressor should be
located 300mm from a wall or any other obstruction that would interfere with the air flow.
Place the air compressor on a firm and level surface. The air compressor is designed with
heat dissipation fins that allow for proper cooling. Keep the fins and other parts clean. A
clean compressor runs cooler and provides longer service. Allow room for easy access to
the air compressor for maintenance and service work.
5.1-1
:
For vertical type permanent installation, the compressor should be bolted to the floor
through holes provided in the compressor feet. Shims must be used to level the
compressor before bolting it to the floor. Severe vibration will result when the compressor
is bolted down tightly and the feet are not level. This can lead to welds cracking or fatigue
of the air receiver.
