Defective air tank.

CORRECTION

Excessive tank pressure - safety
valve pops off.

Pressure switch does not shut off mo-
tor when compressor reaches “cut-out”
pressure.

Move the pressure switch lever to the “OFF” position.
If the outfit doesn’t shut off, unplug. If the electrical
contacts are welded together, replace the pressure
switch.

Pressure '"cut-out" too high.

Return the outfit to an authorized dealer to check and
adjust, or replace switch.

the accessory is used, adjust the regulator following
the instructions on page 7.
