7. Attach chuck or other tool to open end of hose. Turn the regulator on. In the AUTO position, the
compressor pumps air into the tank. It shuts off automatically when unit reaches its maximum

not operate. Make sure switch is in OFF position when connecting or disconnecting power cord from

MOISTURE IN COMPRESSED AIR
Moisture in compressed air will form into droplets as it comes from an air compressor pump. When
humidity is high or when a compressor is in continuous use for an extended period of time, this
moisture will collect in the tank. When using a paint spray or sandblast gun, this water will be carried
from the tank through the hose, and out of the gun as droplets mixed with the spray material.
