2.

Check oil level in pump. See
"Oil" paragraph in the
"Maintenance" section for
instructions.

3.

Recheck all wiring. Make sure
wires are secure at all terminals
connections. Make sure all
contacts move freely and are not
obstructed.

4.

Open the globe valve fully to
permit air to escape and prevent
air pressure build up in the air
tank during the break-in period.

5.

Move the On/Auto/Off lever to
"On/Auto" position. The
compressor will start.

6.

Run the compressor for 20
minutes. Make sure the globe
valve is open and there is
minimal air pressure build-up in
tank.

7.

Check all air line fittings and
connections/piping for air leaks
by applying a soap solution.
Correct if necessary. NOTE:
Minor leaks can cause the air
compressor to overwork,
resulting in premature breakdown
or inadequate performance.

8.

Check for excessive vibration.
Readjust or shim air compressor
feet, if necessary.

9.

After 20 minutes, close the globe
valve. The air receiver will fill to
"cut-out" pressure and the motor
will stop.

Before Each Start-Up:

1.

Place On/Auto/Off lever to "Off".

2.

Close the globe valve.

3.

Attach hose and accessories.
NOTE: A regulator MUST be
installed when using accessories
rated at less than 175 PSI.

NOTE: The hose or accessory will
require a quick connect plug if the air
outlet is equipped with a quick
connect socket.

Risk of Bursting. Too

much air pressure

causes a hazardous risk of
bursting. Check the manufacturer’s
maximum pressure rating for air
tools and accessories. The
regulator outlet pressure must
never exceed the maximum
pressure rating.

How to Start:

1.

Turn the On/Auto/Off lever to
"On/Auto" and allow tank
pressure to build. Motor will
stop when tank pressure reaches
"cut-out" pressure.

2.

When the tank pressure reaches
"cut-out" pressure open the
globe valve.

IMPORTANT: When using regulator
and other accessories refer to the
manufacturers instructions.

The compressor is ready for use.
