Compressor Operation
You do not have to use the maximum operating pressure at
all times as the pneumatic tool being used often requires less
pressure. Here are general guidelines for setting pressure.
1, With air compressor connected to proper power and
turned ON, attach desired air tool or accessory to
either LINE OUT 1 or LINE OUT 2 quick connect
fittings. Use recommended air hose and quick connect
fittings.
2. Activate air tool and turn PRESSURE CONTROL knob
clockwise to increase outlet pressure.
3. Observe REGULATED PRESSURE GAUGE and adjust
pressure to recommended setting of accessory tool.
NOTE:You must adjust regulated air pressure while tool is
operating or activated.
4. Up to two tools or accessories may be connected to the
air compressor at the same time. Each will receive air at
the same regulated pressure.
5. Always operate this unit on a level surface to avoid
lubrication problems.
Observe these safety precautions when operating air
compressor:
