SAFETY INFORMATION
PART PART NAME PART DESCRIPTION
A Electric Motor
The motor is used to power the pump. It contains 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.
The pump is used to compress the air and discharge it into
the tank via the piston moving up and down in the cylinder.
B Air Tank The tank is used to store the compressed air.
C Tank Pressure Gauge
The gauge is used to measure the stored air pressure level of
the tank. It is not adjustable by t
he operator and does not
indicate line pressure.
D Air Pressure Regulator
The regulator is used to adjust line pressure to the tool you are
using. Turn the knob clockwise to increase pressure and
counterclockwise to decrease pressure.
E Regulated Pressure Gauge The gauge is used to measure the regulated outlet pressure.
F Quick Coupler
For this compressor, the quick coupler is also used as
the air line outlet. The outlet is used to connect the 1/4 in.
NPT air hose.
G Air Tank Drain Valve
The drain valve is used to remove moisture from the air tank
after the unit is shut off.
H Pressure Relief Valve
The valve is used to prevent system failures by relieving
pressure from the system. If the pressure reaches the preset
level and the pressure switch will not shut down the motor, it
will automatically pop open. You can also pull the ring on the
valve to open.

Plug
Air Compressor Pump
This switch turns on the compressor and is operated manually.
When in the ON position, it allows the compressor to start up
or shut down automatically, without warning, upon air demand.
ALWAYS set this switch to OFF when the compressor is not
being used and before unplugging the compressor.
This product is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit and
should be grounded. A cord with a grounding plug as
illustrated must be used. Make sure that the product is
connected to an outlet that has the same configuration as
the plug. No adapter shoul
d be used with this product.
DANGER: Someone will be seriously injured or killed if the safety information is not followed.
DANGER
Improper installation of the grounding plug will result in a risk of electric shock. If repair or
blade terminal. The grounding wire has a green outer surface.
WARNING:
Someone could be seriously injured or killed if the safety information is not followed.
CAUTION
Someone may be injured if the safety information is not followed.
WARNING
Safety Symbols
The purpose of safety symbols is to attract your attention to possible dangers. The safety
symbols and the explanations that accompany them deserve your careful attention and
understanding. The safety warnings DO NOT, by themselves, eliminate any danger. They are not
substitutes for proper accident-prevention measures.
User Safety
motor and pressure switch to produce sparks while operating. If sparks come into contact with
as far from the spray area as possible. Always operate the compressor in a well-ventilated area.
Risk of electric shock. A licensed electrician must install all wiring in accordance with all local
and national codes. To avoid electric shock, never use an electric air compressor outdoors
when it is raining or on a wet surface.
Risk of bursting. Rust can weaken the tank. Drain the condensed water from the tank after
each use to reduce rusting. Do not weld, drill or modify the air tank of this compressor. Welding
hazardous condition. If a leak is detected in the tank, replace the tank immediately.
Risk of injury. Always shut off the compressor, remove the plug from the outlet and bleed all
pressure from the system before servicing the compressor or when the compressor is not in
use. Do not use the unit with the shrouds removed. Contact with moving parts could cause
serious injury.
Risk of bursting. Check the maximum pressure rating in the manual or the serial tag label.
Compressor outlet pressure must be regulated so as to never exceed the maximum pressure
rating. Relieve all pressure through the hose before removing or attaching accessories.
Risk of bursting. Do not adjust the pressure switch or relief valve for any reason. They
have been preset at the factory for the maximum pressure of this unit. If the pressure
switch or the relief valve are tampered with, personal injury or property damage may occur.
