GENERAL INFORMATION
Congratulations! You have purchased a one cylinder, %
HP compact permanent lube compressor. The absence
of a tank, and ultra light weight gives you added mobility
as well as ease in storage, while the % HP motor allows
you to utilize many air tools, including inflators, blow
guns, spray guns, air brushes, caulking guns and etch­
ers. Permanent lube design means you never have to
add oil which also guarantees that you will spray entirely
oil-free air.
A V a X15' air hose with integral pressure adjusting valve
is supplied with your compressor, as well as an air chuck.
Accessories for use with your new compressor are avail­
able through the current Sears sales catalog, or at full
line Sears stores. Your compressor will operate many
accessories. Check the pressure and flow rating recom­
mended by the accessory manufacturer - be sure it is
compatible with the air delivery of your compressor.
DESCRIPTION OF OPERATION
Valve
AaaamAly
Air Compressor Pump: To compress air, the piston
moves up and down in the cylinder. On the downstroke,
air is drawn in through the air intake muffler. The exhaust
valve remains closed. On the upstroke of the piston, air is
compressed. The intake valves close and compressed
air is forced out through the exhaust valve and then
through the air hose.
Adjustable Pressure Valve: The pressure valve con­
trols the amount of pressure going from the air compres­
sor to the accessory. The pressure adjusting valve can
be used to set pressure between 10 and 100 P.S.I. (100
P.S.I. is the highest pressure this compressor will
deliver.) Always set the pressure valve at or below the
required pressure for the accessory being used. THE
ADJUSTABLE PRESSURE VALVE MUST BE SET AT
“START” BEFORE YOU START THE COMPRESSOR.
