OPERATION
BREAK-IN THE PUMP
NOTICE! The pump is shipped with break–in oil, which should be changed after the first 8 hours
of operation. To reduce maintenance and repair problems, use only a premium compressor oil.
1. Check the level of oil in the pump with the sight glass. The
pump oil level must be between A and B (Fig. 4). Do not
overfill or underfill.
2. Make sure the power is connected at the power panel.
3. Turn the pressure switch to the OFF position (see C).
4. Open the drain valve (E) by turning it anticlockwise.
5. Turn ON the main power disconnect switch. Turn the
pressure switch to the ON position (D). The motor should
start. Allow the compressor to run for 30 minutes, to break
in the internal parts. (Fig. 5)
NOTICE! Shut the compressor down immediately if the unit does
not operate properly after 30 minutes and contact Princess
Auto Ltd. for a solution.
6. After about 30 minutes, shut off the main
power disconnect.
7. Close the drain valve (F). Turn it clockwise.
8. Turn the pressure switch to the AUTO position (D). The
compressor will start and fill the tank to the cut-out
pressure and stop. As compressed air is used, the pressure
switch will restart the motor automatically.
PRE-START CHECKLIST
1. Always operate the compressor in a level position to allow
the tank to drain.
2. Inspect/clean/change intake elements on a regular basis.
The ingestion of dirt into the pump is the primary cause of
premature wear. Check intake filters daily.
3. Check oil level daily and change at regular intervals.
4. Check the tension of bolts and hardware on a regular basis. Operation of any equipment with
loose bolts and/or fittings
will lead to excessive vibration and the premature failure of
the compressor system control components.
5. Drain moisture from the air tank daily. Water is a natural
byproduct of compressed air. Drain the air tank after each use to avoid internal tank
corrosion. Keep drain valves open when not in use.
