IMPORTANT INFORMATION
PRODUCT FEATURES
Compatible compressor and air tool - proper usage and operation
Always ensure the use of appropriately matched air tools with your Air Compressor. Be sure that the air
compressor being used can supply the appropriate volume, pressure and delivery rate of air to the
tool(s) without running continuously. Using tools or combinations of tools that, together or separately,
require more than the air compressor can deliver will void the air compressor guarantee/warranty.
Electric Motor
The motor is used to power the pump. It is equipped with a thermal overload protector. If the motor
overheats for any reason, the thermal overload protector will shut it down in order to prevent the motor
from being damaged.
Safety Valve
This valve is used to prevent the compressor from building too much pressure. If the pressure reaches
the preset level of the motor, it will automatically pop open. You can also pull the ring on the valve to
open manually.
Power Switch
This switch turns the compressor on and off manually. ALWAYS set this switch to the OFF position when
the compressor is not being used and before unplugging.
Air Pressure Regulator
The regulator is used to adjust the pressure inside the line to the tool that is being used. Turn the knob
clockwise to increase the pressure and counter-clockwise to decrease the pressure.
Tank Pressure Gauge
The gauge measures the pressure level of the air that is stored in the tank. It cannot be adjusted by the
operator and it does not indicate the pressure inside the line.
Air Outlet (Universal Coupler)
The outlet is connected to the 1/4” (6.4 mm) NPT air hose.
Air Tank Ball Valve
The ball valve is used to remove moisture from the air tank after the compressor is shut off.
Tool Pressure Gauge
The gauge measures the regulated outlet pressure.
Air Compressor Pump
The pump compresses the air and discharges it into the tank via the piston that moves up and down in
the cylinder.
This air compressor is ideal for a wide range of jobsite applications. The 5 gallon design provides
optimum pressure. It features a 2.0 HP universal motor and oil-free pump. The procedures described in
this manual are solely for this 5 gallon air compressor at a maximum pressure of 225 PSI.
Air Tank
The tank is where the compressed air is stored.
Power Cord
This compressor should be used on a nominal 120V grounded circuit. Use a power cord that is equipped
with a grounding plug. Verify that the compressor is plugged into an outlet that has the same
configuration as the plug. Do not use an adaptor with this compressor.
