FOR FUTURE USE
FEATURES
UNLOADER VALVE
When the maximum air tank pressure is obtained, the unloader
valve (H) will blow-off. This will cause the compressor to exhaust
the air to the atmosphere and not the tank.
Manual Lock: The manual lock allows you to manually unload the
compressor with air pressure in the air tank. To operate the manual
lock:
11
English
Rotate the manual lock unloaderlever to the
OPEN
H
CLOSED
H
open position to prevent air tank pressure
buildup. Rotate manual lock unloader lever to
the closed position after starting the engine
to allow air tank pressure to build. NOTE: Air
will not build in tank when manual lock
unloader lever in the open position.
SAFETY VALVE
This valve (I) is designed to prevent system failures
I
by relieving pressure from the system when the
compressed air reaches a predeter mined level. The
valve is preset by the manu facturer and must not be
removed or modified in any way.
AIR INTAKE FILTER
The filter (A) is designed to clean air entering the pump.
A
To ensure the pump continually receives a clean, cool,
and dry air supply the filter must always be clean and
the filter intake must be free from obstructions.
AIR TANK DRAIN VALVE
The drain valve (J) is used to remove
J
moisture from the air tank after the air
compressor is shut off.
AIR TANK PRESSURE GAUGE
The air tank pressure gauge (D) indicates air
F
E
D
pressure in the air tank.
REGULATED PRESSURE GAUGE
The regulated pressure gauge (E) 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.
REGULATOR
The regulator knob (F) controls the air pressure coming from the air
tank.
To Adjust Regulator:
1. Pull regulator knob (F) out.
2. Turn knob clockwise to increase regulated pressure and
counterclockwise to decrease regulated pressure.
3. When desired pressure is shown on the regulated pressure
gauge push knob in to lock.
THROTTLE CONTROL
When maxi mum air tank pres sure is reached and the unloader
valve vents air, it activates the throttle control on the engine. This
gas saving feature holds the engine at a factory-set idling speed
until air pressure in the air tank drops to reset pressure. The
unloader valve then reactivates the throttle control and accelerates
the engine to full throttle.
LOW OIL SHUT DOWN SENSORS
The air compressor engine is equipped with a low oil shutdown
sensor. This is a safety device designed to protect your engine
from damage in the event the oil level in the crankcase is below
minimum.
If the oil in the engine gets low while the air compressor is running
it will automatically shut down the engine and will not restart until oil
is added to the engine or pump. If the oil is low before start-up, the
engine will not start until oil is added.
NOTE: The low oil shutdown sensor is very sensitive. You must fill
the engine and pump to the full mark on the dipstick to inactivate
this safety device.

English
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 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.
NOISE CONSIDERATIONS

Thereafter, when using
DEWALT
synthetic compressor oil, change oil
every 200 hours of operation or once a year, whichever comes first.
+ Perform more frequent in dusty or humid conditions.
Checking Safety Valve (Fig. 1)
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.
WARNING: Risk of bursting. If the safety valve does not work
properly, over-pressurization may occur, causing air tank rupture or
an explosion.
Before starting compressor, pull the ring on the safety valve 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 Element (Fig. 1)
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 engine ON/OFF switch (C) is in the OFF position.
2. Allow unit to cool.
3. Remove filter (A) top from filter base by turning filter counter-
clockwise about 5 degrees.
4. Separate filter top from base.
5. Remove element from filter base.
6. If element needs cleaning, blow out with air. Replace if needed.
Purchase replacement parts from your local dealer or authorized
service center. Always use identical replacement parts.
7. Place element back in filter base.
8. Reconnect filter top to filter base. While pushing in, rotate clock-
wise 5 degrees.
CAUTION: Risk of unsafe operation. Do not operate without air
inlet filter.
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 when draining as debris can be
kicked up into face. Use ear protection (
ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) hearing
protection)
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.

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.
California Code: Unit may comply with California Code 462 (l)
(2)/(M) (2). Specification/model label is on the side of the
air tank on units that comply with California Code.
Unloader Blow-Off Pressure: All models are continuous
running units controlled by air tank pressure. When the
maximum air tank pressure is obtained, the unloader
valve will blow-off. This will cause the compressor to
exhaust the air to the atmosphere and not the tank. This
decreases the load on the engine and allows it to run at
a near no-load condition.
Unloader Reset Pressure: When the air tank pressure drops
to a predetermined point, the unloader valve closes. The
air tank pressure will now increase until it reaches the
unloader blow-off pressure.
