This document describes the Alltrade Trades Pro Reconditioned Twin Stack Air Compressor, Model #835486, a 5-gallon, 3 Peak HP unit designed for household use.

Function Description:

The Alltrade Trades Pro Twin Stack Air Compressor is an oil-lubricated, direct-drive pump air compressor with a cast-iron cylinder, designed to provide compressed air for a variety of automotive and home applications. It features an automatic ON/OFF pressure switch that controls the pump motor based on the air pressure in the tank. The compressor will automatically shut off when the tank reaches a preset "cut-out" pressure and restart when the pressure drops below a minimum "cut-in" pressure. A pressure regulator allows the user to adjust the output air pressure to suit different tools and accessories. The unit is equipped with a safety relief valve to prevent over-pressurization and a thermal shutdown switch to protect the motor from overheating.

Important Technical Specifications:

Two Pole Induction Motor: 3450 RPM
Power: 115V, 60 Hz, 15 Amps, 3.0 Peak HP / 1.3 Running HP
Air Delivery: 4.3 SCFM output @ 40 PSI, 3.3 SCFM output @ 90 PSI
Maximum Pressure: 115 PSI
Duty Cycle: 75%
Air Tank: 5 Gallon Twin Stack Air Tank
Pump Type: Oil Lubricated Direct Drive Pump with Cast Iron Cylinder
Safety Features: Thermal Overload Protection, Safety Relief Valve
Air Flow Control: High Flow Regulator for Precision Air Flow Control
Gauges: Tank and Outlet Pressure Gauges
Oil Capacity: 28oz (833ml) of SAE 30 weight non-detergent air compressor oil.

Usage Features:

Reconditioned Unit: This is a reconditioned unit, implying it has been restored to working condition.
Portability: Equipped with a carry handle for easy transport.
Automatic Operation: The automatic ON/OFF pressure switch simplifies operation by maintaining desired tank pressure without constant manual intervention.
Adjustable Output Pressure: The pressure regulator knob allows users to precisely control the air pressure delivered to tools, ensuring optimal performance and preventing damage.
Quick Connect Couplers: The air outlet port features preinstalled quick connect couplers for easy attachment of air hoses and accessories.
Break-in Procedure: Before initial use, a 20-minute break-in period is required, during which the tank drain valve should be open to prevent pressure buildup, allowing the pump to run without load.
Grounding Instructions: The product must be properly grounded using a 3-prong grounding plug connected to a grounded outlet. A temporary adapter can be used if a grounded outlet is not available, but a permanent grounded outlet should be installed by a qualified electrician.
Extension Cord Usage: The use of extension cords is not recommended as it can lead to power loss, motor damage, or tripped circuit breakers. If an extension cord must be used, it should be a UL listed 3-wire cord of appropriate gauge (16 AWG for up to 25 ft, 12 AWG for 26-50 ft, 10 AWG for 51-100 ft) and used with a GFCI.
Work Area Requirements: The compressor should be used in a clean, well-ventilated area, at least 20 inches from walls or obstructions, and away from flammable vapors, extreme temperatures (below 32°F or above 104°F), or dirty/wet conditions.
Safety Warnings: Emphasizes the importance of reading the entire manual, wearing eye and hearing protection, avoiding loose clothing, and not directing compressed air at people or pets. It also warns against operating the compressor if damaged, modifying the tank or safety relief valve, and using it in wet environments.

Maintenance Features:

Oil Lubrication: Requires SAE 30 weight non-detergent air compressor oil. The oil fill sight glass provides a convenient way to check the oil level, which must be done daily.
Oil Change: The pump oil must be changed after the first 20 hours of operation, and thereafter every 200 hours or every six months, whichever comes first. The manual provides detailed steps for draining old oil and refilling with new oil.
Air Tank Drain Valve: Located at the bottom of the lower air tank, this valve is used to drain accumulated moisture daily (or after each use if used occasionally) to prevent rust and tank weakening.
Air Intake Filter: An externally accessible filter element can be easily removed for periodic cleaning with compressed air. It should be replaced when necessary. A dirty filter can reduce performance and lead to product failure.
Safety Relief Valve Check: The safety relief valve should be checked periodically by pulling and releasing its wire ring to ensure the plunger moves freely. If it doesn't move or leaks air, it must be replaced.
General Maintenance Checklist:
- Daily: Check oil level, drain liquid from tank, check for oil leaks, check for unusual noise/vibrations, check fastener security, wipe compressor clean.
- Weekly: Inspect and clean air filter, clean breather holes on oil fill plug.
- Monthly: Check for air leaks (using soapy water solution), check safety relief valve.
Troubleshooting Guide: Provides solutions for common issues such as the compressor not starting, motor stalling, noisy operation, continuous running in start/stop option, overheating, and air leaks.
Disposal of Used Parts: Notes that used maintenance parts, including air filters and lubricating oil, may contain regulated substances and must be disposed of according to local, state, and federal laws.
Warranty: The product comes with a 30-day factory re-manufactured limited warranty to the original retail purchaser, covering defects in materials. The warranty is void if the product is modified, misused, or if recommended operating and maintenance procedures are not followed.
