GLOSSARY

Become familiar with these terms

before operating the unit.

CFM: Cubic feet per minute.

SCFM: Standard cubic feet per

minute; a unit of measure of air

delivery.

PSIG: Pounds per square inch

gauge; a unit of measure of pressure.

Code Certification: Products that

bear one or more of the following

marks: UL, CUL, ETL, CETL, have

been evaluated by OSHA certified

independent safety laboratories and

meet the applicable Underwriters

Laboratories Standards for Safety.

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 a

certain low level the motor will restart

automatically. The low pressure

at which the motor automatically

restarts is called "cut-in" pressure.

Cut-Out Pressure: When an air

compressor is turned on and begins

to run, air pressure in the air tank

begins to build. It builds to a certain

high pressure before the motor

automatically shuts off - protecting

your air tank from pressure higher

than its capacity. The high pressure

at which the motor shuts off is called

"cut-out" pressure.

Branch Circuit: Circuit carrying

electricity from electrical panel to

outlet.

DUTY CYCLE

This air compressor pump is capable

of running continuously. However,

to prolong the life of your air

compressor, it is recommended that

a 50%-75% average duty cycle be

maintained; that is, the air compressor

pump should not run more than 30-45

minutes in any given hour.

unit contains a grounding pin.

This plug MUST be used with a

grounded outlet.

IMPORTANT: The outlet being used

must be installed and grounded in

accordance with all local codes and

ordinances.

2. Make sure the outlet being used

has the same configuration

as the grounded plug. DO

NOT USE AN ADAPTER. See

illustration.

3. Inspect the plug and cord before

each use. Do not use if there are

signs of damage.

4. If these grounding instructions

are not completely understood,

or if in doubt as to whether

the compressor is properly

grounded, have the installation

checked by a qualified

electrician.

Risk of Electrical

Shock. Improper

grounding can result in electrical

shock.

ASSEMBLY

Unpacking

1. Remove unit from carton and discard all packaging.

11 - ENG

A08394

Extension Cords

Using extension cords is not

recommended. The use of extension

cords will cause voltage to drop

resulting in power loss to the motor

and overheating.

Instead of using an extension cord,

increase the working reach of the air

hose by attaching

If an extension cord must be used,

be sure it is:

• a 3-wire extension cord that has

a 3-blade grounding plug, and a

3-slot receptacle that will accept

the plug on the product

• in good condition

• no longer than 50 feet

• 14 gauge (AWG) or larger. (Wire

size increases as gauge number

decreases. 12 AWG and 10

AWG may also be used. DO

NOT USE 16 OR 18 AWG.)

Voltage and Circuit Protection

Refer to the specification chart for the

voltage and minimum branch circuit

requirements.

Risk of Unsafe

Operation. Certain

air compressors can be operated

on a 15 amp circuit if the following

conditions are met.

1. Voltage supply to circuit must

comply with the National

Electrical Code.

2. Circuit is not used to supply any

other electrical needs.

3. Extension cords comply with

specifications.

4. Circuit is equipped with a

15 amp circuit breaker or 15

amp time delay fuse. NOTE: If

compressor is connected to a

circuit protected by fuses, use

only time delay fuses. Time delay

fuses should be marked "D" in

Canada and "T" in the US.

If any of the above conditions

cannot be met, or if operation of

the compressor repeatedly causes

interruption of the power, it may be

necessary to operate it from a 20

amp circuit. It is not necessary to

change the cord set.

Tank Pressure Gauge: The tank

pressure gauge indicates the reserve

air pressure in the tank.

Regulator: Controls the air pressure

shown on the outlet pressure

gauge. Pull the knob out and turn

clockwise to increase pressure

and counterclockwise to decrease

pressure. When the desired pressure

is reached push knob in to lock in

place.

Drain Valve: The drain valve is

located at the base of the air tank

and is used to drain condensation at

the end of each use.

Cooling System (not shown): This

compressor contains an advanced

design cooling system. At the heart of

this cooling system is an engineered

fan. It is perfectly normal for this fan

to blow air through the vent holes

in large amounts. You know that the

cooling system is working when air is

being expelled.

Description of Operation

Become familiar with these controls

before operating the unit.

On/Auto/Off Lever: Turn this switch

to "On/Auto" to provide automatic

power to the pressure switch and

"Off" to remove power at the end of

each use.

Pressure Switch: The pressure

switch automatically starts the

motor when the air tank pressure

drops below the factory set "cut-in"

pressure. It stops the motor when the

air tank pressure reaches the factory

set "cut-out" pressure.

Safety Valve: If the pressure switch

does not shut off the air compressor

at its "cut-out" pressure setting, the

safety valve will protect against high

pressure by "popping out" at its

factory set pressure (slightly higher

than the pressure switch "cut-out"

setting).

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 than or equal to the tank

pressure.

drained, water will corrode and

weaken the air tank causing a risk

of air tank rupture and possible

serious personal injury.

7. After the water has been

drained, close the drain or drain

valve.

NOTE: If drain valve is plugged,

release all air pressure. The valve

can then be removed, cleaned, and

reinstalled.

8. Protect the electrical cord and

air hose from damage (such as

being stepped on or run over).

Wind them loosely around

the compressor handle. (If so

equipped)

9. Store the air compressor in a

clean and dry location.
