STARTING THE COMPRESSOR

INITIAL START-UP

1. Fully open the receiver drain cock, (located between the wheels).

2. To ease starting, ensure there is no pressure in the pump outlet manifold by 

opening the Bleed Valve (See Fig.2). 

3. Start the engine, according to the instructions contained in the engine 

service manual, if this is the first time you use the compressor, allow to run 
for 10 minutes.

4. After a ten minute period, close the drain cock and bleed valve then 

ensure both air outlet taps are closed (off position).

• Pressure will build up in the receiver and eventually the air governor will 

operate so that the engine runs off load. The pressure registered on the 
pressure gauge should be 100psi.

5. Slide the outlet taps outwards to allow air to escape from the outlets, and 

slowly turn the pressure regulator clockwise. Observe the pressure gauge. 
When the pressure has dropped by approx. 20psi, the Air Governor/Load 
genie will operate and the compressor will cut in again. Close the sliding 
outlet valves and pressure in the air receiver will once again increase

6. Finally, stop the engine and set the pressure regulator to zero pressure 

(turned fully anticlockwise) and attach the air hose and air tool. 

7. Open the sliding valves then set the pressure regulator to full pressure 

(100psi) and check for air leaks at the tool and connectors. 

• If leaks are apparent, set 

the regulator to zero 
pressure (fully 
anticlockwise), press the 
trigger of the tool to 
ensure no air is present in 
the airline, then rectify the 
problem before 
proceeding.

• If no leaks are evident, 

Open the bleed valve, 
start the engine and then 
close the bleed valve. Set 
the outlet pressure to the 
desired value and proceed to use the air tool in accordance with the 
manufacturers instructions.
