OPERA
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Break-in procedure
1. Set the ON/OFF switch (B) to the OFF position.
2. Open the tank drain valve (H) by turning it counter-clockwise to permit the air to escape and
prevent air pressure build-up in the air tank during the break-in period.
3.
Turn the air pressure regulator knob (D) counter-clockwise until it stops.
4. Plug in the power cord (J).
NOTE: A circuit breaker is recommended.
If the air compressor is connected to a circuit
protected by a
dual element time delay fuses (type “T” only).
fuse, use
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
5. Set the ON/OFF switch (B) to the ON position. The compressor will start. Run the compressor for
30 minutes. If it fails, turn it off immediately and call the toll-free helpline at 1-800-689-9928.
Please note that breaking-in the unit is only required prior to first use.
6. After 30 minutes, turn off the switch.
7. Close the tank drain valve (H) by turning it clockwise.
8. Set the ON/OFF switch (B) to the ON position. The air receiver will fill to cut-out pressure
and then the compressor’s motor will stop. The compressor is now ready for use.
CAUTION!
Use a dedicated circuit.
For best performance and reliable starting, the air compressor should be plugged into a dedicated circuit,
as close as
possible to the fuse box or circuit breaker.
The compressor will use the full capacity of a typical 15 A household circuit. If any other electrical
devices are drawing from the compressor’s circuit, the air compressor may fail to start. Low voltage
or an overloaded circuit can result in sluggish starting that causes the motor thermal overload protector
or circuit breaker to trip, especially in cold conditions.
