AIR COMPRESSOR
Test Run
Before using the air compressor for the first time.
Complete a test run as follows:
1.
Turn the power switch to the OFF position.
Plug the power supply cord into a power supply socket.
Start the air compressor by turning the power switch to the ON
position.
The pressure gauge reading will slowly rise as pressure
increases inside the air tank.
When the gauge reading reaches 120 PSI - 125 PSI, the
pressure switch will automatically turn the power off.
This indicates the compressor is working normally.
2.
Daily Operation
Starting the compressor:
1.
Turn the power switch to the OFF position.
2.
Attach the air hose to the 1/4” male industrial quick connect
coupler. Push the male coupler into the female coupler on the
air compressor.
3.
Close the drain valve.
4. Have air filters attached
5.
Plug the power supply cord into a power supply socket.
6.
Turn the power switch to the ON position.
7.
Let the motor run and tank fill until motor turns off.
8.
To regulate the air flow.
While the air compressor is running, turn “On” your tool and
turn the regulator knob to the right increasing the pressure.
Turn the pressure up until the desired pressure is reached.
9.
Operate air tool normally.
Do Not Exceed 1 hour of continuous (non-stop motor running)
Shutting down the compressor:
1.
Turn the power switch to the OFF position.
2.
Unplug the power supply cord.
3.
Reduce the pressure in the air tank through the air hose.
Air compressor surfaces become hot during
operation.
DO NOT touch hot surfaces, because they can cause
severe burns.
Do not touch the air compressor’s cylinder head.
During operation, the cooling fins of the cylinder
head and delivery pipe become hot.
Allow the air compressor to cool before touching it.
DO NOT place a storage cover on the unit during
operation. Only place a cover on the air compressor
after it has thoroughly cooled down.
FIRE
HOT SURFACE
WARNING
Flying objects can cause injury to the eyes, head and
other parts of the body.
Air-powered equipment and power tools are capable
of propelling items (metal chips, fasteners and
particulates) at high speed into the air and could
result in injury.
Always wear approved head and eye protection.
Never point the air stream at any part of your body,
or at another person or animal.
When operating the air compressor, make sure all
other people and animals maintain a safe distance.
Do not move the air compressor when the air tank is
under pressure.
Never use the air hoses to pull or move the air
compressor.
Keep the air compressor on a flat surface.
WARNING
FLYING OBJECTS
Note:
If the Air Compressor is not working properly, the
pressure gauge will indicate that there is a decrease in
pressure in the air tank. If there is an air leak from the
compressor the pressure in the air tank decreases, the
pressure switch resets and the motor automatically turns
back on.
If you detect an air leakage, turn the power switch to the
Off position, release the air from the tank by pulling on
the safety valve. Unplug the power supply cord and contact
Customer Support for Assistance.
Turn the power switch to the Off position, unplug the power
supply cord and release the air in the tank by pulling on the
safety valve. At this point proceed to the next step (daily
operations).
