Automatic Shut off System
1. If the Compressor automatically shuts off
before reaching its normal cutoff pressure:

b. Wait until the Compressor cools down
(about 10 minutes);
c. If the unit does not start up again on its own,
move the Power Switch to OFF position,
then back to ON;
d. Resume operation.

shut off of the compressor are:
a. Using an extension cord that is too long or narrow;

to cycle too often and build up heat.

avoid damage to the compressor.
