BREAK-IN PROCEDURES
I_ Serious damage may result if the following break-in
instructions are not closely followed.
This procedure is required before the air compressor is put into service. (before the
hose is installed), the check valve is replaced, or a complete compressor pump is
replaced.
The procedure:
1. Make surethe pressure switch lever is in the "OFF" position.
2. Plug the power cord into the correct branch circuit receptacle.
3. Open the drain valve fully to permit air to escape and prevent air pressure build
up in the air tank during the break-in period.
4. Move the pressure switch lever to "ON/AUTO". The compressor will start.
5. Runthecompressorfor 30minutes. Make sure the drain valve is open and there
is minimal air pressure build-up in tank.
6. After 30 minutes, close the drain valve.
7. Move the pressure switch lever to "ON/AUTO". The air receiver will fill to cut-out
pressure and the motor will stop.
The compressor is now ready for use.
OPERATING PROCEDURES
Daily Start-Up Checklist
t. Before attaching air hose or accessories, make sure the ON/AUTO leveris set to
"OFF" and the air regulatoris closed.
2. Attach hose and accessories.
TOO MUCH AIR PRESSURE CAUSES A HAZARDOUS
RISK OF BURSTING, CHECK THE MANUFACTURER'S MAXIMUM
PRESSURE RATING FOR AIR TOOLS AND ACCESSORIES. THE
REGULATOR OUTLET PRESSURE MUST NEVER EXCEED THE
MAXIMUM PRESSURE RATING.
3. Turnthe ON/AUTO lever to "AUTO" and allow tank pressure to build. Motor will
stop when tank pressurereaches "cut-out" pressure.
4. Open the regulator by turning it clockwise. Adjust the regulator to the correct
pressuresetting. Yourcompressor is ready for use.
5. Always operate the air compressor in well-ventilated areas; free of gasoline or
other combustible vapors. Ifthe compressoris being used to operate a sprayer
DO NOT use near the spray area.
When you are finished:
6. Set the "ON/AUTO" leverto "OFF".
7. Turnthe regulatorcounterclockwise and set the outlet pressure to zero.
8. Remove the air tool or accessory.
9. Pull ring on safety valve allowing air to bleed from the tank untiltank pressure is
approximately 20 psi. Release safety valve ring.
10.Drain water from air tank by opening drain cock valve on bottom of tank.
WATER WILL CONDENSE IN THE AIR TANK. IF NOT
DRAINED, WATER WILL CORRODE AND WEAKEN THE AIR TANK
CAUSING A RISK OF AIR TANK RUPTURE.
