Check the oil level in the pump (see "Checking the Oil" in the maintenance
section).
2.
Make sure the main power disconnect switch is shut OFF.
Close the tank petcock (see E).

Turn ON the main power disconnect switch. Turn the pressure switch to the
AUTO position (see D). The pump will start filling the tank with air. When the
air pressure in the tank reaches the level preset at the factory, the pressure
switch will turn off the electric motor. As air is used and the pressure level in
the tank drops, the pressure switch will start the motor and the pump will
begin refilling the tank.

contact your nearest Service Center or call the factory's Customer
Service Department. DO NOT return the unit to the store where it was
purchased.
