6. After about 15 minutes, turn the pressure switch to the OFF position.
7. Close the air pressure regulator by turning it clockwise. Turn the pressure
switch to ON. The tank will now fill.
Note:
As compressed air is used, the pressure switch will restart the motor automatically.
Note:
During the initial break-in cycle, there will be a slight electrical smell as the motor brushes seat.
This is normal for universal motors and will last for about 5 minutes.
Operating Instructions
Daily Startup
1
Turn the pressure switch to the OFF position (A, Fig. J).

.
Maintenance
WARNING! TO AVOID PERSONAL INJURY, ALWAYS SHUT OFF AND UNPLUG THE
COMPRESSOR, AND RELIEVE ALL AIR PRESSURE FROM THE SYSTEM BEFORE
PERFORMING ANY SERVICE ON THE AIR COMPRESSOR.
Regular maintenance will ensure trouble free operation. Your electric powered air compressor
represents high quality engineering and construction; however, even high quality machinery
requires periodic maintenance. The items listed below should be inspected on a regular basis.
