DANGER: RISK OF BURSTING

Air Tank: On February 26, 2002, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety

Commission published Release # 02-108 concerning air compres-

sor tank safety:

Air compressor receiver tanks do not have an infinite life. Tank life is

dependent upon several factors, some of which include operating

conditions, ambient conditions, proper installations, field modifica-

tions, and the level of maintenance. The exact effect of these fac-

tors on air receiver life is difficult to predict.

If proper maintenance procedures are not followed, internal corro-

sion to the inner wall of the air receiver tank can cause the air tank

to unexpectedly rupture allowing pressurized air to suddenly and

forcefully escape, posing risk of injury to consumers.

Your compressor air tank must be removed from service by the end

of the year shown on your tank warning label.

The following conditions could lead to a weakening of the air tank,

and result in a violent air tank explosion:

WHAT CAN HAPPEN HOW TO PREVENT IT

• Failure to properly drain

condensed water from air tank

causes rust and thinning of the

steel air tank.

• Drain air tank daily or after each

use. If air tank develops a leak,

replace it immediately with

a new air tank or replace the

entire compressor.

• Modifications or attempted

repairs to the air tank.

• Never drill into, weld or make

any modifications to the air

tank or its attachments. Never

attempt to repair a damaged or

leaking air tank. Replace with a

new air tank.

• Unauthorized modifications to

the safety valve, or any other

components which control air

tank pressure.

• The air tank is designed

to withstand specific

operating pressures. Never

make adjustments or part

substitutions to alter the factory

set operating pressures.

Attachments & Accessories:

• Exceeding the pressure rating

of air tools, spray guns, air

operated accessories, tires

and other inflatables can

cause them to explode or

fly apart, and could result in

serious injury.

• Follow the equipment

manufacturers

recommendation and never

exceed the maximum allowable

pressure rating of attachments.

Never use compressor to

inflate small low pressure

objects such as children’s toys,

footballs, basketballs, etc.

Tires:

• Over inflation of tires could

result in serious injury and

property damage.

• Use a tire pressure gauge to

check the tires pressure before

each use and while inflating

tires; see the tire sidewall for

the correct tire pressure.

NOTE:

Air tanks, compressors

and similar equipment used to

inflate tires can fill small tires

very rapidly. Adjust pressure

regulator on air supply to no

more than the rating of the

tire pressure. Add air in small

increments and frequently use

the tire gauge to prevent over

inflation.

Lubrication and Oil

AIR COMPRESSOR

The air compressor pump was filled WITH oil at the manufacturer.

Check air compressor pump oil level before operating unit. See

Compressor Pump Oil under Maintenance.

Compatibility

Air tools and accessories that are run off the compressor must be

compatible with petroleum based products. If you suspect that a

material is not compatible with petroleum products, an air line filter

for removal of moisture and oil vapor in compressed air is required.

NOTE: Always use an air line filter to remove moisture and oil vapor

when spraying paint.

Location

• Locate the air compressor in a clean, dry, and well ventilated

area.

• Locate the air compressor at least 12” (30.5 cm) away from the

wall or other obstructions that will interfere with the flow of air.

• Locate the air compressor as close to the main power supply

as possible to avoid using long lengths of electrical wiring.

NOTE: Long lengths of electrical wiring could cause power

loss to the motor.

• The air filter must be kept clear of obstructions which could

reduce air flow to the air compressor.

HUMID AREAS

In frequently humid areas, moisture may form in the pump and

produce sludge in the oil, causing running parts to wear out

prematurely. Excessive moisture is especially likely to occur if

the unit is located in an unheated area that is subject to large

13

English

temperature changes. Two signs of excessive humidity are external

condensation on the pump when it cools down and a “milky”

appearance in compressor oil. You may be able to prevent

moisture from forming in the pump by increasing ventilation or

operating for longer intervals.

Electrical Wiring

WARNING: Improper electrical installation of this product may

void its warranty and your fire insurance. Have circuit wiring

performed by qualified personnel such as a licensed electrician who

is familiar with the current national electrical code and any prevailing

local electrical codes.

WARNING: Risk of electrical shock. Improper electrical grounding

can result in electrical shock. The wiring should be done by a

qualified electrician.

Refer to the air compressor’s specification label for the unit’s

voltage and amperage requirements.

For best performance and reliable starting, the air compressor

must be plugged into a dedicated circuit, as close as possible

to the fuse box or circuit breaker. The compressor will use the

full capacity of a typical 15 amp household circuit. If any other

electrical devices are drawing from the compressor’s circuit, the

compressor may fail to start. Low voltage or an overloaded circuit

can result in sluggish starting that causes the motor overload

protection system or circuit breaker to trip, especially in cold

conditions.

NOTE: A circuit breaker is recommended. If the air compressor is

connected to a circuit protected by a fuse, use only time

delay fuses.

WARNING: Risk of electrical shock. Electrical wiring must

be located away from hot surfaces such as manifold assembly,

compressor outlet tubes, heads, or cylinders.

Grounding Instructions

1. This product must be grounded. In the event of an electrical

short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of

electrical shock by providing an escape wire for

the electric current. This product is equipped

with a cord having a grounding wire with an

appropriate grounding plug. The plug must be

plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded in

accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

WARNING: Improper installation of the grounding plug is able to

result in a risk of electric shock. When repair or replacement of the

cord or plug is required, do not connect the grounding wire to either

flat blade terminal. The wire with insulation having an outer surface

that is green with or without yellow stripes is the grounding wire

2. Substitution of the signal word "DANGER" for "WARNING" is

not prohibited when the risk associated with the product is such

that a situation exists which if not avoided will result in death or

serious injury.

Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman when the

grounding instructions are not completely understood, or when

in doubt as to whether the product is properly grounded. Do not

modify the plug provided; if it does not fit the outlet, have the

proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician

3. This product is for use on a nominal 120-V circuit and has a

grounding plug similar to the plug illustrated in the figure. Only

connect the product to an outlet having the same configuration

as the plug. Do not use an adapter with this product.

14

English

DANGER: Risk of electrical shock. IMPROPER GROUNDING

CAN RESULT IN ELECTRICAL SHOCK.

• Do not modify the plug provided. If it does not fit the available

outlet, a correct outlet should be installed by a qualified

electrician.

• Repairs to the cord set or plug MUST be made by a qualified

electrician.

Extension Cords

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

• plug is not worn

• no longer than 50 feet (15.2 m)

• 12 gauge (AWG) or larger. (Wire size increases as gauge number

decreases. 10 AWG and 8 AWG may also be used. DO NOT

USE 14 OR 16 AWG.)

NOTICE: The use of an undersized extension cord 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 another length of hose to its end. Attach

additional lengths of hose as needed. Always use a minimum 3/8”

(9.5 mm) or greater air hose rated at 300 PSI.

Voltage and Circuit Protection

CAUTION: Certain air compressors can be operated on a

15 Amp circuit if the following conditions are met.

• Voltage supply to circuit must comply with the National

Electrical Code.

• Circuit is not used to supply any other electrical needs.

• Extension cords comply with specifications.

• 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.

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.

Checking Safety Valve

WARNING: Hot surfaces. Risk of burn. Tubes, pump head, and

surrounding parts are very hot, do not touch (see the Hot Surfaces

identified in Fig. 1). Allow compressor to cool prior to servicing.

WARNING: Risk of bursting. If the safety valve does not work

properly, over-pressurization may occur, causing air tank rupture

or an explosion.

WARNING: Risk from flying objects. Always wear certified safety

equipment: ANSI Z87.1 eye protection (CAN/CSA Z94.3) with side

shields.

WARNING: Risk from noise. Use ear

protection (ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) as air flow

noise is loud when draining.

Before starting compressor, pull the ring on

the safety valve (G) to make sure that the

safety valve operates freely. If the valve is

stuck or does not operate smoothly, it must

be replaced with the same type of valve.

Checking Air Filter

WARNING: Hot surfaces. Risk of burn. Tubes, pump head, and

surrounding parts are very hot, do not touch (see the Hot Surfaces

identified in Fig. 1). Allow compressor

to cool prior to servicing.

A dirty air filter will not allow the

compressor to operate at full

capacity. Keep the air filter clean at

all times.

1. Ensure Auto/Off switch (B) is

in the OFF (O) Position.

2. Allow unit to cool.

3. Unsnap the air filter cover

to remove (S).

4. Check the filter element (T). If it is dirty, blow compressed air

through the filter element for 10-15 seconds or replace

if needed. If the filter is filled with paint, replace it.

5. Place element into housing and reattach the air filter cover.

CAUTION: Risk of unsafe operation. Do not operate without air

filter.

Draining Air Tank (Fig. 2)

WARNING: Risk of unsafe operation. Air tanks contain high

pressure air. Keep face and other body parts away from outlet of

drain. Use eye protection [ANSI Z87.1 (CAN/CSA Z94.3)] when

draining as debris can be kicked up into face.

WARNING: Risk from noise. Use ear protection (ANSI S12.6

(S3.19) as air flow noise is loud when draining.

NOTE: All compressed air systems generate condensation that accu-

mulates 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. Set the Auto/Off switch to “OFF (O)”.

2. Turn the regulator knob counterclockwise to set the outlet

pressure to zero.

3. Remove the air tool or accessory.

4. Pull ring on safety valve allowing air to bleed from the tank until

tank pressure is approximately 20 PSI. Release safety valve

ring.

5. Drain water from air tank by opening drain valve on bottom of

tank.

WARNING: Risk of bursting. Water will condense in the air tank.

If not drained, water will corrode and weaken the air tank causing a

risk of air tank rupture.

NOTICE: Risk of property damage. Drain water from air tank may

contain oil and rust which can cause stains.

6. After the water has been drained, close the drain valve. The air

compressor can now be stored.

NOTE: If drain valve is plugged, release all air pressure. The valve

can then be removed, cleaned, then reinstalled.

Compressor Pump Oil (Fig. 3)

NOTICE: Risk of property damage. Use air compressor oil only.

Multi-weight automotive engine oils like 10W30 should not be used

in air compressors. They leave carbon deposits on critical compo-

nents, thus reducing performance and compressor life.

NOTE: Use full synthetic, non-detergent air compressor oil.

NOTE: Crankcase oil capacity is approximately 16.0 fluid ounces

(473ml).

WARNING: Drain tank to release air pressure before removing

the oil fill plug or oil drain plug.

Checking

WARNING: Drain tank to release air pressure before removing

the oil fill plug or oil drain plug.

1. The oil level should be to the middle of the sight glass (K).

2. If needed, remove oil fill plug (I) and slowly add oil until it

reaches the middle of the sight glass.

Changing

WARNING: Drain tank to release air pressure before removing the

oil fill plug or oil drain plug.

1. Remove the oil fill plug (I).

2. Remove the oil drain plug (J) and drain oil into a suitable con-

tainer.

3. Replace the oil drain plug (J) and tighten securely

4. Slowly add compressor oil until it reaches the middle of the

sight glass (K). 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: Overfilling with oil will cause premature compressor

failure. Do not overfill.

5. Replace oil fill plug (I) and tighten securely.

Belt Replacement

WARNING: This unit starts automatically. ALWAYS shut off

and unplug the compressor, and bleed all pressure from the

system before servicing the compressor, and when the

compressor is not in use. Do not use the unit with the shrouds

or belt guard removed. Serious injury could occur from contact

with moving parts. Hot surfaces. Risk of burn. Pump head, and

surrounding parts are very hot, do not touch (see the Hot

Surfaces identified in Fig. 1). Allow compressor to cool prior to

servicing.
