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.

Check Valve: When the air compres-

sor is operating, the check valve is

"open", allowing compressed air to

enter the air tank. When the air com-

pressor reaches "cut-out" pressure,

the check valve "closes", allowing air

pressure to remain inside the air tank.

Pressure Release Valve: The pres-

sure release valve located on the side

of the pressure switch, isdesigned

to automatically release compressed

air from the compressor head and the

outlet tube when the air compressor

reaches "cut-out" pressure or is shut

off. The pressure release valve allows

the motor to restart freely. When the

motor stops running, air will be heard

escaping from this valve for a few

seconds. No air should be heard

leaking when the motor is running or

after the unit reaches "cut-out"

pressure.

Motor Overload Protector: The

motor has an automatic reset ther-

mal overload protector. If the motor

overheats for any reason, the overload

protector will shut off the motor. The

motor must be allowed to cool down

before restarting. The compressor will

automatically restart after the motor

cools.

How to Use Your Unit

How to Stop:

1. Set the On/Auto/Off lever to

"OFF",

Before First Start-up

Risk of Unsafe

. _

Operation. Serious

damage may result if the following

break-in instructions are not closely

followed.

This procedure is required before the

air compressor is put into service and

when the check valve or a complete

compressor pump has been replaced.

1. Make sure the On/Auto/Off lever

is in the "OFF" position.

NOTE: If quick connect is installed,

pull coupler back until it clicks to

prevent air from escaping through the

quick connect.

2. Plug the power cord into the

correct branch circuit receptacle.

(Refer to Voltage and Circuit

Protection paragraph in the

Installation section of this manual.)

3. Open the drain valve fully

(counterclockwise) to permit air to

escape and prevent air pressure

build up in the air tank during the

break-in period.

NOTE: Always drain tank on a wash-

able surface or in a suitable con-

tainer to prevent damaging or staining

surfaces.
