Break-In Procedures
This procedure is only required the first time the air
compressor is put into service.
1. Set the pressure switch OFF/AUTO lever to the "OFF"
position.
2. Plug the power cord into the correct branch circuit
receptacle.
3. Turn the regulator clockwise, opening it fully, to
prevent air pressure build-up in the tank.
4. Move the OFF/AUTO lever to "AUTO". The compres-
sor will start.
5. Run the compressor for 15 minutes. Make sure the
regulator is open and there is no tank pressure build-
up.
6. After 15 minutes, close the regulator by turning it
counterclockwise. The air tank will fill to cut-out
pressure and then the motor will stop.
Refer to Operating Procedures.
RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK. IF REPAIR-
ING OR REPLACING CORD OR PLUG, THE
GROUNDING WIRE MUST BE KEPT SEPA-
RATE FROM THE CURRENT-CARRYING
WIRES. NEVER CONNECT THE GROUNDING
WIRE TO A FLAT BLADE PLUG TERMINAL.
(THE GROUNDING WIRE HAS INSULATION
WITH AN OUTER SURFACE THAT IS GREEN
- WITH OR WITHOUT YELLOW STRIPES.)
If these grounding instructions are not completely under-
stood, or if in doubt as to whether the compressor is
properly grounded, have the installation checked by a
qualified electrician.
Location of the Air Compressor
Locate the air compressor in a clean, dry and well venti-
lated area. The air filter must be kept clear of obstructions
which could reduce air delivery of the air compressor. The
air compressor should be located at least 12" away from
the wall or other obstructions that will interfere with the
flow of air. The air compressor head and shroud are
designed to allow for proper cooling. If humidity is high, an
air filter can be installed to remove excessive moisture.
Follow the instructions packaged with the air filter for
proper installation.
Extension Cords
Use extra air hose instead of an extension cord to avoid
voltage drop and power loss to the motor.
If an extension cord must be used, be sure it is:
• a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding
plug and a 3-slot receptacle that will accept the plug
on the product.
• in good condition.
• no longer than 50 feet.
• 12 gauge (AWG) or larger. (Wire size increases as
gauge number decreases. 10 AWG and 8 AWG may
also be used. DO NOT USE 14 or 16 AWG.)
Grounding Instructions
IMPROPER GROUNDING CAN RESULT IN
ELECTRICAL SHOCK. IN THE EVENT OF A
SHORT CIRCUIT, GROUNDING REDUCES
THE RISK OF SHOCK BY PROVIDING AN
ESCAPE WIRE FOR THE ELECTRIC CUR-
RENT. THIS AIR COMPRESSOR MUST BE
PROPERLY GROUNDED.
1. The air compressor is equipped with a cord having a
grounding wire with an appropriate grounding plug.
The plug must be used with an outlet that has been
installed and grounded in accordance with all local
codes and ordinances. The outlet must have the
same configuration as the plug. DO NOT USE AN
ADAPTER.
2. Do not modify the plug that has been provided. If it
does not fit the available outlet, the correct outlet
should be installed by a qualified electrician.
3. Inspect the plug and cord before each use. Do not
use if there are signs of damage.
