DAILY START UP

WARNING! High temperatures are generated by the electric motor and the pump. To prevent

burns or other injuries, DO NOT touch the compressor while it is running. Allow it to cool before

handling or servicing. Keep children away from the compressor at all times.

1. Check the sight glass to ensure the level of oil in the pump is at the required level.

2. Turn the main power disconnect switch to the OFF position.

3. Close the tank drain valve.

4. Turn ON the main power disconnect switch. Turn the pressure switch to the ON position. The

pump will start ﬁlling the tank with air. When the air pressure in the tank reaches the level

preset at the factory, the pressure switch will turn o the electric motor. As air is used and

the pressure level in the tank drops, the pressure switch will start the motor and the pump

will begin reﬁlling the tank.

SHUTDOWN

1. Turn the pressure switch to the OFF position.

2. Turn the power disconnect switch to the OFF position.

3. Reduce pressure in the tank by slowly opening the drain valve at the bottom of the tank. The

escaping air will also blow condensation out. Leave the drain valve open until the next use.

MAINTENANCE

WARNING! Only qualiﬁed service personnel should repair the device. An improperly repaired

device may present a hazard to the user and/or others.

CAUTION! Always unplug or shut down your compressor and drain the air tank completely before

attempting any type of maintenance. Wait for compressor to cool before servicing.

1. Maintain the device with care. A device in good condition is ecient, easier to control and

will have fewer problems.

2. Follow the maintenance schedule for your compressor.

3. Drain tank of moisture after each day’s use. Leave the drain valve open until the next time it

is used. This will allow moisture to completely drain out and help prevent corrosion on the

inside of tank (Fig. 5).

4. Inspect the device ﬁttings, alignment and hoses periodically. Have damaged or worn

components repaired or replaced by an authorized technician.

4.1 Pull the relief valve daily to ensure that it is operating properly and to clear the valve of

any possible obstructions.

5. Maintain the device’s label and nameplate. These carry important information. If unreadable

or missing, contact Princess Auto Ltd. for replacements.
