Installation (Continued)
Do not use
a grounding adapter with this product!
2. If repair or replacement of cord or plug
is necessary, do not connect grounding
wire to either flat blade terminal. The
wire with insulation having an external
surface that is green (with or without
yellow stripes) is the grounding wire.
Never
connect
green (or green and yellow) wire to a live
terminal.
3. Check with a qualified electrician or
serviceman if grounding instructions
are not completely understood, or if in
doubt as to whether product is
properly grounded. Do not modify
plug provided; if it will not fit outlet,
have proper outlet installed by a
qualified electrician.
Overheating, short circuiting and fire
damage will result from inadequate
wiring, etc.
Operation
Definition of Terms
ASME Safety Valve - This valve
automatically releases air if the tank
pressure exceeds the preset maximum.
Handle - Designed to move the
compressor.
Drain Valve - This valve is located on
the bottom of the tank. Use this valve
to drain moisture from the tank daily
to reduce the risk of corrosion.
Reduce tank pressure below 10 psi,
then drain moisture from tank daily to
avoid tank corrosion. Drain moisture
from tank by opening the drain valve
located underneath the tank.
LUBRICATION
This is an oilless product and DOES
NOT require lubrication to operate.
BEFORE FIRST STARTUP
BREAK-IN PROCEDURE
(Complete this procedure before using
compressor for the first time. Once
completed, it is not necessary to
repeat.)
1. Do not attach a hose or any other
fitting to the compressor.
2. Turn on/off switch to OFF position.
3. Plug in power cord.
4. Turn on/off switch to ON position.
Allow compressor to run for 5
minutes.
5. Turn on/off switch to OFF position.
6. Unplug power cord.
BEFORE EACH STARTUP
OPERATING PROCEDURE
1. Connect air hose to open port
located below pressure gauge.
2. Attach the necessary fitting or tool
to open end of air hose.
3. Turn on/off switch to OFF position.
4. Plug in power cord.
5a. If using inflation needles/nozzles:
Attach air hose with inflation
fitting to the object you are going
to inflate. While holding inflation
fitting firmly in place, turn on/off
switch to ON position. Allow
compressor to inflate the object.
Turn off compressor and remove
inflation fitting.
5b. If using tire chuck or tool: Once
chuck or tool is attached to air
hose, turn on/off switch to ON
position and allow compressor to
run until it automatically shuts off.
When using tire chuck to inflate
tires, observe gauge reading on
compressor and periodically check
tire pressure with a separate tire
gauge to prevent overinflation.
On/Off cycling of compressor
In the ON position, the compressor
pumps air into the tank. When a shut-
off (preset “cut-out”) pressure is
reached, the compressor automatically
shuts off.
If the compressor is left in the ON
position and air is depleted from the
tank by use of a tire chuck, tool, etc.,
the compressor will restart
automatically at its preset “cut-in”
pressure. When a tool is being used

Problema Posible(s) Causa(s) Acción a tomar
1. Demasiada agua en el tanque
2. Humedad elevada
1. Presostato defectuoso
2. Válvula de seguridad defectuosa
1. Demasiada condensación en el
tanque
2. Conexiones flojas (accesorios, tubería,
etc.)
1. Drene el tanque, incline el tanque para eliminar la
humedad
2. Llévelo a un área menos húmeda, utilice un filtro de
aire de línea
Nota: La condensación de agua no es una causa para
el malfuncionamiento del compresor.
1. Cambie el interruptor de presión
2. Cambie la válvula de retención con un repuesto
original
1. Drene con más frecuencia
2. Revise todas las conexiones con una solución de agua
y jabón. Si se detecta una fuga, apriete. O quite la
conexión y aplique cinta para tuberías a las rocas y
vuelva a armar.
