MOISTURE IN COMPRESSED AIR
Electrical Data (Con’t)
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
Moisture in compressed air will form into droplets as it comes from an air
compressor pump. When humidity is high or when a compressor is in continuous
use for an extended period of time, this moisture will collect in the tank. When
using a paint spray or sandblast gun, this water will be carried from the tank
through the hose, and out of the gun as droplets mixed with the spray material.
IMPORTANT: This condensation will cause water spots in a paint job,
especially when spraying other than water based paints. If sandblasting, it will
cause the sand to cake and clog the gun, rendering it ineffective. A filter in
the air line (MP3105), located as near to the gun as possible, will help
eliminate this moisture.
This unit does not need to be
grounded.
EXTENSION CORDS

higher number. Check the pressure
with a separate pressure gauge.
4. Attach chuck or other tool to open
end of hose. The compressor is now
ready to use.
1. Use only an extension cord that has a
receptacle that will accept plug on
product.
Wall Mounting
The switch should
be in the OFF
position when connecting or
disconnecting the power cord from the
electrical outlet.
2. Make sure extension cord is in good
condition, and heavy enough to carry
the current. An undersized cord will
cause a drop in line voltage resulting
in loss of power and overheating.
This compressor is designed with an
option to be hung on a wall or
pegboard for convenient storage. It can
also be operated while in the hanging
position if one of the following
conditions is met:
REGULATOR
1. This regulator controls air pressure to
the hose and attachment.
3. Table below shows correct size to use
depending on cord length and
nameplate ampere rating. If in
doubt, use next heavier gauge.
1. If mounted on a wall, mounting
hardware is secured into wood or
masonry with suitable fasteners.
2. Turning knob clockwise increases air
pressure at outlet.
NOTE: The smaller the gauge number,
the heavier the cord.
3. Turning counterclockwise will lower
air pressure at outlet.
2. If mounted on drywall or gypsum
board, toggle bolts or mounting
anchors are strong enough and are
properly secure to resist vibration
from the compressor.
Using Selector Guide
Operation
BREAK-IN PROCEDURE
Do not attach air
chuck or other tool
to open end of hose until start-up has
been completed and unit checks OK.
The pressure regulator on the unit is
used to control the air pressure output.
A low number, such as 10, indicates low
pressure. A high number, such as 100,
indicates high pressure.
3. If mounted on a pegboard, other
items hung from the pegboard are
secure enough to resist vibration
from the compressor.
The selector guide is located on top of
the unit for convenience. Locate the
number across from the desired usage.
For example: To inflate a basketball,
the pressure setting is 5 - 15. Turn the
regulator until gauge reads the desired
pressure. Inflate the ball. The unit will
automatically “bleed off” any excess
pressure after the ball is inflated.
IMPORTANT: Do not operate
compressor before reading instructions
or damage may result.
On the bottom of the compressor are
two keyhole-shaped mounting points
that are spaced 4 inches apart. The
compressor is designed to be hung with
the hose outlet pointed downward.
When installing on pegboard, hang
from 1/4 or 1/8 inch hooks spaced 4
inches apart. When hanging from the
wall, accurately space the fasteners
exactly 4 inches apart horizontally or
the compressor will not line up with
the fasteners. The compressor is
designed to hang from the head of the
screw or nail.
1. With power switch OFF, turn
regulator knob fully
counterclockwise to minimum
operating pressure.
2. While unit is still OFF, plug in power
cord.
Use care when

2. Extended use. Thermal shutdown is
normal when compressor is used for
extended period of time.

The compressor should be checked
often for any visible problems and the
following maintenance procedures
should be performed each time the

4. High ambient temperature.
If the thermal
overload protectors
are actuated, the motor must be
allowed to cool down before start-up is
possible. The motor will automatically
restart without warning if left plugged
into electrical outlet and unit is turned
on.
1. Turn power OFF and clean dust and
dirt from motor, air lines and vent
openings.
IMPORTANT: Locate unit as far from
spraying area as possible.
STORAGE
LUBRICATION
This is an oilless
type compressor
requiring no lubrication.
1. When not in use, store hose and
compressor in a cool dry place.
