Filling times can vary depending on ambient conditions, such as, temperature, humidity and altitude. General
fill times are approximately 35-45 minutes for a 12 cf tank from empty to 4500 PSI and 3.5 to 4.00 hours for a
75 cf tank from empty to 4500 psi.
When filling tanks, open the manual air/water control knob every 15 -20 minutes of compressor operation ,
more often for high humidity days.

Troubleshooting:
Compressor not "ON" (no lights)
•
Make sure there is power at the electrical outlet.
•
Make sure cord is pushed all the way into electrical outlet socket on the main compressor.
•
Make sure the red circuit breaker has not tripped.
•
Take off front panel and check for any loose wires. Due to unfortunate roughness during shipping,
wires may become loose or undone.

This may be an indicator that there might be some loose wires.
The gauge has been set very low.
