OPERATION PROCEDURES
Daily Start-Up Procedures
1. Set the On/Off switch to the off position.
2. Check the air compressor visually for any damage or obstruction.
3. Close the drain valve.
4. Plug the power cord into the proper receptacle.
5. Turn the On/Off switch to the On position and the compressor should start and build air pressure in the tank to cut-out
pressure and then shut off automatically.
6. Adjust the regulator to a PSI setting that is recommended for your application.
7. The air compressor is now ready for use.
WARNING
Improper installation of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock. If repair or
replacement of the cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the grounding wire to either flat blade terminal. The wire
with insulation having an outer surface that is green with or without yellow stripes is the grounding wire. Check with a
qualified electrician or serviceman if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if in doubt as to
whether the product is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided; if it will not fit the outlet, have the proper
outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
Daily Shut-Down Procedures
1. Set the Auto-On/Off lever to the Off position.
2. Unplug the power cord from the receptacle.
3. Set the outlet pressure to zero on the regulator.
4. Remove any air tools or accessories.
5. Open the drain valve allowing air to bleed from the tank. After all of the air has bled from the tank, close the drain
valve to prevent debris buildup in the valve.
Water that remains in the tank during storage will corrode and weaken the air tank, which could cause the tank to
rupture. To avoid serious injury, be sure to drain the tank after each use or daily.
CAUTION
When draining the tank, always use ear and eye protection. Drain the tank in a suitable location;
condensation will be present in most cases of draining.

CAUTION
To ensure efficient operation and longer life of the air compressor unit, a routine maintenance
schedule should be followed. The following schedule is geared toward a consumer whose compressor is used in a
normal working environment on a daily basis. If necessary, the schedule should be modified to suit the condition under
which your compressor is used. The modifications will depend upon the hours of operation and the working
environment. Air compressors used in an extremely dirty and/or hostile environment will require a greater frequency of
all maintenance checks.
