NOTE: The compressor generates condensation water
(condensate) that accumulates in the air tanks. Drain the
condensate every 4 hours or daily.
5. Close both drain valves.
Transport
Be sure to transport the compressor in a safe manner and be
sure to the secure unit in a stable position. DO NOT move
unit while engine is running.
Compressor Operation
You do not have to use the maximum operating pressure at
all times because the air tool being used often requires less
pressure. Here are general guidelines for setting pressure.
1. Always operate this unit on a level surface to avoid
lubrication problems.
2. With air compressor engine running and air tank
pressurized, attach desired air tool or accessory to
quick connect fitting. Use recommended air hose and
fitting.
3. Activate air tool, pull pressure control knob (A) out,
then turn pressure control knob clockwise to increase
outlet pressure.
4. Observe regulated pressure gauge (B) and adjust
pressure to recommended setting of accessory tool.
NOTE: You must adjust outlet air pressure while tool is
operating or activated.
5. Push pressure control knob in to lock in selected
pressure setting.
6. Up to two air hoses and air tools may be connected to
the air compressor at the same time. Each will receive
air at the same outlet pressure.
