filter cover.
NOTE: If the air filter is
extremely dirty it will need
to be replaced. Refer to the
“Repair Parts” for the cor-
rect part number.
6. After the water has been
drained, close the drain
valve (clockwise). The air
compressor can now be
stored.
NOTE : If drain valve is
clogged, release all air pres-
sure. The valve can then be
removed, cleaned, and then
reinstalled.
AIR FILTER INSPECTION
AND REPLACEMENT
Hot sur-
faces. Risk of burn.
Compressor heads are
exposed when filter
cover is removed. Allow
compressor to cool prior
to servicing.
A dirty air filter will not
allow the compressor to
operate at full capacity.
Keep the air filter clean at
all times.
1. Remove the air filter
cover.
2. Remove the air filter and

TO DRAIN TANK
1. Set the On/Auto/Off lever
to “OFF”.
2. Pull the regulator knob
out and turn clockwise to
set the outlet pressure to
zero.
3. Remove the air tool or
accessory.
4. Pull ring on safety valve
allowing air to bleed from
the tank until tank pres-
sure is approximately 20
psi. Release safety valve
ring.
5. Drain water from air tank
by opening drain valve
(counter-clockwise) on
bottom of tank.
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.
Service and
Adjustments
Unit cycles
automatically when
power is on. When doing
maintenance, you may be
exposed to voltage
sources, compressed air
or moving parts. Personal
injuries can occur. Before
performing any mainte-
nance or repair, unplug
the compressor and bleed
off all air pressure.
ALL MAINTENANCE AND
REPAIR OPERATIONS NOT
LISTED MUST BE PER-
FORMED BY A TRAINED
SERVICE TECHNICIAN.
TO REPLACE OR CLEAN
CHECK VALVE
1. Release all air pressure
from air tank. See “To
Drain Tank” in the
Maintenance section.
TO CHECK SAFETY
VALVE
If the safety
valve does not work
properly, over-pressuriza-
tion may occur, causing
air tank rupture or an
explosion.
Before starting compressor,
pull the ring on the safety
valve to make sure that the
safety valve operates freely.
If the valve is stuck or does
not operate smoothly, it
must be replaced with the
same type of valve.
