OPERATION
Description of Operation
Become familiar with these controls before operating the unit.
On/Auto/Off Switch: Turn this switch ON
to provide automatic power to the pressure
switch and OFF to remove power at the
end of each use.
Pressure Switch: The pressure switch automatically starts the motor when the
air tank pressure drops below the factory set “cut-in” pressure. It stops the
motor when the air tank pressure reaches the factory set “cut-out” pressure.
Safety Valve: If the pressure switch does not shut off the air compressor at its
“cut-out” pressure setting, the safety valve will protect against high pressure by
“popping out” at its factory set pressure (slightly higher than the pressure
switch “cut-out” setting).
Outlet Pressure Gauge: The outlet pressure gauge indicates the air pressure
available at the outlet side of the regulator. This pressure is controlled by the
regulator and is always less than or equal to the tank pressure.
Tank Pressure Gauge: The tank pressure gauge indicates the reserve air
pressure in the tank.
Regulator: Controls the air pressure shown on the outlet pressure gauge. Pull
the knob out and turn clockwise to increase pressure and counterclockwise to
decrease pressure. When the desired pressure is reached push knob in to lock
in place.
(if equipped) Universal Quick-Connect Body: The universal quick-connect
body accepts the three most popular styles of quick-connect plugs: Industrial,
automotive (Tru-flate), and ARO. One hand push-to-connect operation makes
connections simple and easy.
