WALT Air Compressor Features
PRESSURE SWITCH
This switch (A) is used to start or stop the air compressor. Moving the
switch to the O N position will provide automatic power to the
pressure switch which will allow the motor to start when the air tank
pressure is below the factory set cut-in pressure. When in the O N
( A U TO ) position, the pressure switch stops the compressor from
charging air when the air tank pressure reaches
the factory set cut-out pressure limit. For ease of
starting, this switch also has a pressure release
valve located on the side of the switch designed
to automatically release compressed air from
the air compressor pump head and its discharge
line when the air compressor reaches the cut-
out pressure limit or is shut off. Moving the
switch to the O F F position will open the
on compressor during or immediately after operation.
Compressor will remain hot for several minutes after
operation. Do not move the compressor while it is
running. Hot motor parts could cause burns contributing
to the dropping of the compressor, damaging the
compressor and/or injuring the operator.
