SCFM or CFM: Standard Cubic Feet per Minute; a unit
of measurement of air delivery.
PSIG or PSI: Pounds per square inch gauge.
CUT-IN PRESSURE: While the motor is off, air tank
pressure drops as you continue to use your accessory.
When the tank pressure drops to approximately 100 PSI
the motor will restart automatically. The low pressure at
This air compressor's optimum life may be achieved by operating the unit at a 50 % duty cycle, or less.
A 50% duty cycle is considered to be 30 minutes of 'run time' in any 1 hour time period.
Should the unit operate at a greater than a 50% duty cycle, then the compressor may be undersized for the
required job demand and continued operation above a 50% duty cycle may constitute misuse of the product.
This air compressor is specifically designed for use in lighter duty
contractor finishing applications. Use in any other application requiring
higher performance or longer duty cycle operation may cause premature
failure.
1. Set the "ON/OFF" switch to "OFF" and unplug the
cord.
2. Relieve all pressure from the air compressor head and
air hose by opening the regulator.

CUT-OUT PRESSURE: When you turn on your air com-
pressor and it begins to run, air pressure in the air tank
begins to build. It builds to to approximately 125 PSI before
the motor automatically shuts off .The high pressure at
which the motor shuts off is called "cut-out pressure."
3. Protect the electrical cord and air hose from damage
by winding them loosely around the air compressor.
4. Store the air compressor in a clean and dry location.
