Initial Set-Up – Break-in Procedure
Before first use of this air compressor or after the
compressor pump/motor has been replaced, per-
form the following:
. Ensure the power switch is in the OFF
position.
This air compressor has an integrated power and
pressure switch. When the power is ON the pres-
sure switch will automatically start the compres-
sor motor any time the tank pressure drops below
the factory set cut-in pressure and stop the motor
when the tank pressure stops at the factory set
cut-out pressure.
2. Ensure safety valve is functioning properly by
pulling on the valve ring and allow the valve to
reset.

vents under normal operating
conditions, stop using
immediately. Send your compressor for service.
If the safety release valve is venting the tanks the
pressure switch may need factory adjustment.
3. Plug the power cord into the correct branch
circuit receptacle.
See the "Grounding Section" for more information
on the correct receptacle.
. Open the drain valve to permit air to escape the
tank and prevent air pressure build up during
the break-in period.
The drain valve is located on the control panel
and is used to drain condensation from the tanks
at the end of each use. Tank pressure is used to
expel the water.
5. Move the power switch to the ON position. The
compressor will start.
. Run the compressor for 20 minutes.
7. After 20 minutes, close the drain valve. The tank
will fill to cut-out pressure and the compressor
motor will stop.
. Move the power switch to the OFF position and
unplug the compressor.
9. Pull the safety valve and allow to vent until tank
pressure is under 20 psi.
