WARNING: Risk of unsafe operation. Unit cycles
automatically when power is on.
When performing maintenance, you may be exposed
to voltage sources, compressed air, or moving parts.
Personal injuries can occur. Before performing any
maintenance or repair, disconnect power source from
the compressor and bleed off all airpressure.
NOTE: See Operation section for the location ofcontrols.
To Check Safety Valve (Fig. E)
WARNING: Risk of Bursting. If the safety valve does
not work properly, over-pressurization may occur,
causing air tank rupture or anexplosion.
WARNING: Risk from Flying Objects. Always wear
certified safety equipment: ANSI Z87.1 eye protection
(CAN/CSA Z94.3) with sideshields.
Before starting compressor, pull the ring on the safety
valve
4
to make sure that the safety valve operates freely. If
the valve is stuck or does not operate smoothly, it must be
replaced with the same type ofvalve.

To Drain Tank (Fig. E, F)
WARNING: Risk of Unsafe Operation. Air tanks
contain high pressure air. Keep face and other body
parts away from outlet of drain. Use ANSI Z87.1 eye
protection (CAN/CSA Z94.3) when draining as debris
can be kicked up intoface.
WARNING: Risk from noise. Always wear proper
hearing protection during use. Under some conditions
and duration of use, noise from this product may
contribute to hearingloss.
NOTE: All compressed air systems generate condensate
that accumulates in any drain point (e.g., tanks, filter,
aftercoolers, dryers). This condensate contains lubricating
oil and/or substances which may be regulated and must be
disposed of in accordance with local, state, and federal laws
andregulations.
WARNING: Risk of Bursting. Water will condense in
the air tank. If not drained, water will corrode and
weaken the air tank causing a risk of air tankrupture.
NOTICE: Risk of Property Damage. Drain water
from air tank may contain oil and rust which can
causestains.
1. Set the On/Off switch
1
to "Off".
2. Remove thebattery.
3. Turn the regulator
6
counterclockwise to set the outlet
pressure tozero.
4. Remove the air tool oraccessory.
5. Place a suitable container under the drain valve to
catchdischarge.
6. Pull ring on safety valve
4
allowing air to bleed from
the tank until tank pressure is approximately 20 psi.
Release safety valvering.
7. Drain water from air tank by opening drain valve
7
on
bottom oftank.
8. After the water has been drained, close the drain valve.
The air compressor can now bestored.
NOTE: If drain valve is plugged, release all air pressure
by connecting a tool the the airline and operating it until
tank pressure is zero psi. The valve can then be removed,
cleaned, thereinstalled.
