COMPRESSOR FEATURES  
1) MOTOR/PRESSURE SWITCH: This switch is used to start or stop the air  
compressor. Moving the switch to the "Auto" (On) position will provide automatic power  
to the pressure switch which will allow the motor to start when the air tank pressure is  
below the factory set "cut-in" pressure. When in the On Position, the pressure switch  
stops the motor when the air tank pressure reaches the factory set "cut-out" pressure.  
For safety purposes, this switch also has a pressure release valve located below the  
switch designed to automatically release compressed air from the air compressor pump  
head and its discharge line when the air compressor reaches "cut-out" pressure or is  
shut off. This allows the motor to restart freely. Moving the switch to the "Off" position  
will remove power from the motor and stop the air compressor.

2) MOTOR THERMAL OVERLOAD: The electric motor has a manual resettable  
overload protector. If the motor draws excessive current for any reason, the thermal  
overload will cut off power, thus preventing the motor from being damaged. Wait until  
the motor is cool before pressing the reset button to begin working again. If multiple  
reset result in consistent trips, check service and/or reference extension cord sizing  
recommendations.  
3) AIR INTAKE FILTER: This filter is designed to clean air coming into the pump. To  
ensure the pump continually receives a clean, cool, dry air supply this filter must always be  
clean and ventilation opening free from obstructions. The filter can be removed for cleaning  
by using warm, soapy water. Rinse the filter and air dry. Replace filter when necessary.  
4) AIR COMPRESSOR PUMP: To compress air, the piston moves up and down in the  
cylinder. On the downstroke, air is drawn in through the air intake valve while the  
exhaust valve remains closed. On the upstroke, air is compressed, the intake valve  
closes and compressed air is forced out through the exhaust valve, into the discharge  
line, through the check valve and into the air tank.

5) AIR TANK DRAIN VALVE: The drain valve is used to remove moisture from the air  
tank(s) after the air compressor is shut off. NEVER attempt to open the drain valve  
when more than 10 PSI of air pressure is in the air tank! To open the drain valve,  
turn the knob counterclockwise.

6) AIR TANK PRESSURE GAUGE: The air tank pressure gauge indicates the reserve air  
pressure in the air tank (s).  
9
7) OUTLET PRESSURE GAUGE: The outlet pressure gauge indicates the air pressure  
available at the outlet side of the regulator. This pressure is controlled by the regulator and  
is always less or equal to the air tank pressure.  
11  
10  
8) PRESSURE REGULATOR: The air pressure coming from the air tank is controlled by  
the regulator knob. Turn the pressure regulation knob clockwise to increase discharge  
pressure, and counterclockwise to decrease discharge pressure.  
9) OIL DIPSTICK: The dipstick will register the amount of oil in the pump. Oil level  
should be checked on a daily basis to ensure that it does not exceed the maximum notch  
or fall below the minimum notch on the dipstick. Air escaping from the vent is normal.  
10) OIL DRAIN: The drain is provided to remove oil that has exceeded its service life.  
Drain oil into approved container and dispose of properly. Refill prior to starting.

11) RISK OF BURNS Head and discharge lines can be very hot.  
Do not touch until unit has cooled after use.

12) POWER CORD: Use only 115VAC 15A service. See extension cord recommendations  
on page 10.  
13) QUICK DISCONNECT: Spring loaded sealed coupling for easy hose removal. 1/4".  
14) SAFETY RELIEF VALVE: This valve is designed to prevent system failures by  
relieving pressure from the system if compressed air reaches a predetermined level. The  
valve is preset by the manufacturer and must not be modified in any way. To verify the  
valve is working properly, pull on the ring. Air pressure should escape. When the ring is  
released, it will reseat.

15) COLD START VALVE: The compressor is provided with a normally open valve. This  
valve will relieve compressed air for a few seconds at compressor start up allowing the  
motor to reach operating speed with low pump resistance.

3. Remove plug from cylinder head port and replace w/ air filter.

OPERATION  
PRE-START CHECKLIST:  
1. Check oil level. Add if necessary.  
2. Remove any moisture in the air compressor air tank. Remove excessive pressure with an air tool or by  
pulling the safety relief valve ring, then open the air tank drain valve in the bottom of the air tank. Close tightly  
when drained.  
WARNING: Risk of bodily injury. NEVER attempt to open the drain valve when  
more than 10 PSI of air pressure is in the air tank!  
3. Make sure the air compressor Motor Switch is in the “OFF” position.  
4. Make sure all safety valves are working correctly.  
5. Make sure all guards and covers are in place and securely mounted.  
6. Make sure that air filter is placed in proper opening. Remove plug before threading housing into compressor.  
START-UP:  
1. Ensure the lever on the pressure switch box is in the “OFF” position.  
2. Plug the power cord into a grounded outlet.  
3. Move the lever on the pressure switch box to the “ON” position.  
4. START/STOP: Turn to the ON position. This will allow the air compressor to “START” building up pressure in  
the air tanks and “STOP” when correct pressure is achieved. When pressure drops with usage, the air  
compressor willautomatically “START” building up pressure again.  
5. Set pressure by adjusting the pressure regulator knob counterclockwise for less pressure and clockwise for  
more pressure.  
6. If you notice any unusual noise or vibration, stop the air compressor and refer to “Troubleshooting”.  
SHUTDOWN:  
1. To stop the air compressor, move the lever on the pressure switch box to the “OFF” position. NEVER stop the  
air compressor by unplugging it from the power source. This could result in risk of electrocution.  
2. Drain air from the air tanks by releasing air with an attached air tool or by pulling on the safety relief valve rings.  
3. Once pressure in the air tanks register under 10 psig, open the drain valve under each air tank to drain any  
moisture.  
4. Allow the air compressor to cool down.  
5. Wipe air compressor clean and store in a safe, non-freezing area.  
MAINTENANCE  
Read the instruction manual before performing maintenance. The following procedures must be performed when  
stopping the air compressor for maintenance or service.  
1. Turn off air compressor.  
WARNING: Never assume the air compressor is safe to work on just because  
it is not operating. It could restart anytime!  
2. Disconnect cord from main power supply.  
3. Open all drains.  
4. Wait for the air compressor to cool before starting service.
