corrosion. Ensure that tank, compressor, motor and pump are in good
condition and caps are tight.
STARTING THE COMPRESSOR
1. Make sure wiring fuse and power supply are correctly installed.
2. Make sure all pressure and water are released from tank.
3. Turn on power switch. The pressure inside the tank will increase until it
reaches 90 PSI. The system will then automatically shut down at this point.
4. Connect air tool and start the compressor to begin use.
Note
:
Be sure
to check manufacturer’s maximum pressure rating for air tools and
accessories
. Compressor outlet pressure must be regulated to never
exceed the maximum pressure rating of the tool.
5. Use the regulator knob to control the amount of air pressure for the attached
air tool. Turn the knob clockwise to increase air pressure and
counter-clockwise to reduce air pressure.
6. To enable the best air pressure release and avoid air leakage, use T
eflon
tape to wrap around hose and coupler thread.
AIR RELEASE
1. Turn the power switch off after each use of the compressor.
2. Open the Moisture release
drain value
underneath the tank and release
all the air and moisture inside.
3. The pressure gauge should now fall back to 0 PSI.
4. Release all air from the attached air tool, and the n disconnect hose from
the quick coupler.
