1.) Air Filter - Make sure your air filter is clean and
particle free.
2.) Belt Guard - Covers the belt, motor pulley and
flywheel. NEVER operate compressor without the
belt guard or guard cover.
4.) Ball Valve - 1/2” NPT outlet.
5.) Pressure Gauge - Easy to read gauge.
6.) Mount Feet - Use an isolation pad system to
increase your compressor life.
7.) Remote Drain Petcock - This valve is located
on the foot ring of the tank. Use this valve to drain
moisture from the tank daily to reduce the risk of
corrosion.
8.) ASME Safety Valve - This valve automatically
releases air if the tank pressure exceeds the preset
maximum.
9.) Unloader - Device on pressure switch which
allows release of pressurized air between the tank
and compressor so motor does not start under load.
10.) Pressure Switch - Auto/Off Switch - In
the “auto” position, the compressor shuts off
automatically when tank pressure reached the
maximum preset pressure. In the “off” position, the
compressor will not operate. This switch should be in
the “off” position when connecting or disconnecting
the power cord from the electrical outlet. NEVER
attempt to adjust the pressure switch. Tampering with
the pressure switch will void ALL warranties.
11.) Check Valve - One-way valve that allows air
to enter the tank, but prevents air in the tank from
flowing back into the compressor pump.
12.) Discharge Tube - This tube carries compressed
air from the pump to the check valve. This tube
becomes very hot during use. To avoid the risk of
severe burns, never touch the discharge tube.
