) to start the compressor.
4. Run the compressor in this no-load condition for 1 to 20 minutes to
lubricate the bearings and pistons.

when it reaches the pressure set on the regulator. Your compressor is now
ready for use.
NOTE:
During the break-in period, there may be a slight smell as the electrical
motor brushes seat themselves. This may last for about 5 minutes and is
normal.
CAUTION!
