Description of Operation

Become familiar with these controls before operating the unit.
On/Auto/Off Switch: Turn this

switch "ON/AUTO" 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. Turn

the knob clockwise to increase pressure and counterclockwise to decrease

pressure.
Drain Valve: The drain valve is located at the base of

the air tank and is used to drain condensation at the

end of each use.
Cooling System (not shown): This compressor

contains an advanced design cooling system. At the

heart of this cooling system is an engineered fan. It is perfectly normal for this

fan to blow air through the vent holes in large amounts. You know that the

cooling system is working when air is being expelled.
Air Compressor Pump (not shown): Compresses air into the air tank.

Working air is not available until the compressor has raised the air tank

pressure above that required at the air outlet.
