Equipment Description
Read this manual carefully and become familiar
with your air compressor. Know its applications, its
limitations and any hazards involved.
This manual contains operation and maintenance information
for a single stage air compressor that produces 4.9 CFM at
40 PSI (2.8 bars) and 3.6 CFM at 90 PSI (6.2 bars) using a
120 Volt A.C. electric motor. This high quality system
features a direct drive oil lube pump with cast iron sleeve, an
easy start valve, and a motor overload protection feature
with manual restart.
This air compressor has been manufactured to provide an
adequate volume of compressed air for operating a variety of
light-duty air tools (hand grinders, nailers, ratchets, or
staplers), spraying equipment, and inflators requiring less
than 4.9 CFM air flow for operation. Operate this compressor
ONLY in an ambient temperature range from 32
° to 95 ° F
(0 ° to + 35 ° C). This compressor is designed for a maximum
of 70% duty per hour at full load.
Every effort has been made to ensure that information in this
manual is accurate and current. However, we reserve the
right to change, alter or otherwise improve the product and
this document at any time without prior notice.
