Operation

START-UP / BREAK-IN PROCEDURE
Do not attach air tools to open end of the
hose until start-up is completed and the
unit checks OK.
Never disconnect threaded joints with
pressure in tank!
1. Check oil level per Lubrication section of this manual.
2. Open the tank drain valve. Turn outlet valve to open air
flow.
3. Move pressure switch to the AUTO position to run the unit.
4. Run the unit for 30 minutes at zero psi (0 psi - under no
load) to break in pump parts.
5. Move the pressure switch lever or knob to OFF and turn
tank drain valve to shut off air flow. The compressor is now
ready for use.
Follow the first three steps listed for normal use of the
compressor.
ON / OFF CYCLING OF THE COMPRESSOR
The air compressor unit is designed to cycle on and off.
With the pressure switch knob in the AUTO position, the
compressor pumps air into the tank. When the shut-off (preset
"cut-out") pressure is reached, the compressor automatically
shuts off.
If the compressor is left in the AUTO position and air is
depleted from the tank by use of a tire chuck, tool, etc., the
compressor will restart automatically at its preset "cut-in"
pressure. When a tool is in use, the compressor will cycle on
and off automatically as needed to maintain air pressure in
the tank.

all pressure from the system before attempting
to install, service, relocate or perform any
maintenance.
All repairs should be performed by an authorized service
representative.
FOR EFFICIENT OPERATION:
Perform the following maintenance schedule.
1. Maintain proper oil level. Refer to Lubrication section for
details.
2. Drain Tank. With
compressor shut off and
pressure released, drain
moisture from tank by
opening drain valve
underneath tank (See
Figure 17).
3. Check air filter to be sure it is clean. To service a filter,
remove the filter housing cover. Remove filter and clean
in hot, soapy water (Paper filters cannot be washed). Rinse
and let dry. Replace air filters that cannot be cleaned. Place
filter back in the housing base. Replace cover.
4. Check the safety valve by performing the following steps:
a. Run compressor until shut off pressure is reached. Turn
b. Wearing safety
c. The safety valve should automatically close at

approximately 40-50 PSI. If the safety valve does not
allow air to be released when you pull on the ring, or if
it does not close automatically, it MUST be replaced.
