Draining Air Tank (Fig. 1)
WARNING: Risk of unsafe operation. Risk from noise. Air tanks
contain high pressure air. Keep face and other body parts away from
outlet of drain. Use safety glasses [ANSI Z87.1 (CAN/CSA Z94.3)]
when draining as debris can be kicked up into face. Use ear protection
[ANSI S12.6 (S3.19)] as air flow noise is loud whendraining.
NOTE: All compressed air systems generate condensate that
accumulates in any drain point (e.g. tanks, filter, aftercoolers, dryers).
This condensate contains lubricating oil and/or substances which may
be regulated and must be disposed of in accordance with local, state,
and federal laws andregulations.
1. Ensure On/Off switch is in the OFFposition.
2. Move compressor into an inclined position so drain valve (H) is at
the lowest point (this will assist in removing moisture, dirt, etc. from
air tanks)
3. Place a suitable container under the drain valve to catchdischarge.
4. Grasp knurled knob on drainvalve.
5. Slowly rotate knob to gradually bleed air from airtank.
WARNING: Risk of bursting. Drain air tank daily. Water will con-
dense in air tank. If not drained, water will corrode and weaken the air
tank causing a risk of air tankrupture.
CAUTION: Risk of property damage. Drain water from air tank may
contain oil and rust, which can cause stains.
6. When air tank pressure gauge reads 10 PSI (68,9 kPa), rotate
valve to the fully openposition.
7. Close drain valve whenfinished.
Compressor Pump Oil (Fig. 1)
CHECKING OIL
WARNING: Hot surfaces. Risk of burn. Aftercooler, pump head, and
surrounding parts are very hot, do not touch (see the Hot Surfaces
identified in Fig. 2). Allow compressor to cool prior to servicing.
1. Ensure On/Off switch is in the OFFposition.
2. Place unit on a flat levelsurface.
3. Remove dipstick (K) and wipeclean.
4. Reinsert dipstick fully into oil fill port for a few seconds to allow oil
to collect on thedipstick.
5. Remove oil dipstick to read oil level. Oil should not exceed top
raised line on dipstick. If oil is below lower mark, add same type
of oil in crankcase and follow Steps 4 -6.
NOTE: When filling the crankcase, the oil flows very slowly into the
pump. If the oil is added too quickly, it will overflow and appear to
befull.
CAUTION: Risk of unsafe operation. Overfilling with oil will cause
premature compressor failure. Do notoverfill.
6. Replacedipstick.
CHANGING OIL
NOTE: Pump oil contains substances that are regulated and must
be disposed of in accordance with local, state and federal laws
andregulations.
WARNING: Hot surfaces. Risk of burn. Aftercooler, pump head, and
surrounding parts are very hot, do not touch (see the Hot Surfaces
identified in Fig. 2). Allow compressor to cool prior to servicing.

Glossary
CFM: Cubic feet perminute.
SCFM: Standard cubic feet per minute; a unit of measure of air
delivery.
PSI: Pounds per square inch; a unit of measure ofpressure.
kPa (kilopascal): Metric pressure measurement. 1 kilopascal equal
1000 pascals.
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 when
accessory is used. 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: The circuit carrying electricity from electrical panel
tooutlet.
Duty Cycle: For proper operation of your air compressor, it is
recommended that a 50% duty cycle be maintained; that is, the
air compressor should not run more than 5 minutes in any 10
minuteperiod.
