HOW TO PREVENT IT • The compressor is too heavy to be lifted by one person. Obtain assistance from others before lifting. FEATURES AUTO (-) / OFF (O) SWITCH Place this switch (B) in the AUTO (-) position to provide automatic power to the pressure switch and OFF(O) to remove power at the end of each use.
English reaches cut-out pressure, the check valve closes, allowing air pressure to remain inside the air tank. automotive, and ARO. One hand push-to-connect operation makes connections simple and easy. AIR INTAKE FILTERS The filters (A) are designed to clean air entering the pump. To ensure the pump continually receives a clean, cool, and dry air supply the filters must always be clean and the filter intakes must be free from obstructions.
INSTALLATION Assembly (Fig. 1) Lubrication and Oil 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. INSTALLING HOSES WARNING: Risk of unsafe operation.
English Grounding Instructions 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. WARNING: Risk of electrical shock. In the event of a short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current.
• 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.
English NOTE: After about 30 minutes, If the unit does not operate properly, SHUT DOWN IMMEDIATELY, and contact Product Service. 7. Check all air line fittings and connections/piping for air leaks by applying a soap solution. Correct if necessary. NOTE: Minor leaks can cause the air compressor to overwork, resulting in premature breakdown or inadequate performance. 8. Check for excessive vibration. 9. After 30 minutes, turn the Auto/Off switch to the “Off” position. 10. Close the drain valve. 11.

While compressor is pumping to pressure and after pressure cuts out, look for air bubbles to form.
English Checking Air Filter (Fig. 1) WARNING: Risk of unsafe operation. Unit cycles automatically when power is on. When performing maintenance, you may be exposed to voltage sources, compressed air, or moving parts. Personal injuries can occur. Before performing any maintenance or repair, disconnect power source from the compressor and bleed off all air pressure. WARNING: Hot surfaces. Risk of burn.
Checking 1. 2. Changing WARNING: Drain tank to release air pressure before removing the oil fill cap or oil drain plug. 1. 2. 3. 4. 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. Remove the oil fill plug (Y). Remove the oil drain plug (W) and drain oil into a suitable container.

within 1/16” (1.6 mm) to prevent excessive belt wear. Verify the alignment by performing the following Motor Pulley/Flywheel Alignment. 8. NOTE: Once the motor pulley has been moved from its factory set location, the grooves of the flywheel and pulley must be aligned to within 1/16” (1.6 mm) to prevent excessive belt wear. The air compressor flywheel and motor pulley must be in-line (in the same plane) within 1/16” (1.6 mm) to assure belt retention within flywheel belt grooves.
English 8. Apply sealant to the check valve threads. Reinstall the check valve (turn clockwise). 9. Replace the pressure release tube. Tighten nuts. 10. Replace the outlet tube and tighten nuts. 11.
