Operation
FOR TROUBLE-FREE OPERATION
1. Read instructions: Carefully read
through this owner's manual BEFORE
OPERATING the new air compressor.
It contains information about
operation and maintenance of unit.
2. Break in: Allow new compressor to
run for at least 15 minutes without
compressing air, to properly seat
working parts. See Break-In
instructions.
3. Drain tank daily: Open drain cock and
drain moisture from tank. Be sure to
close cock tightly before operating
compressor. This helps prevent tank
corrosion and keeps oil and moisture
out of air used.
MOISTURE IN COMPRESSED AIR
Moisture in compressed air will
form into droplets as it comes
from an air compressor pump.
When humidity is high or when a
compressor is in continuous use
for an extended period of time,
this moisture will collect in the
tank. When using a paint spray or
sandblast gun, this water will be
carried from the tank through the
hose, and out of the gun as
droplets mixed with the spray
material.
IMPORTANT: This condensation
will cause water spots in a paint
job, especially when spraying
other than water based paints. If
sandblasting, it will cause the
sand to cake and clog the gun,
rendering it ineffective.
A filter in the air line, located as
near to the gun as possible, will
help eliminate this moisture.

3. Turn switch to ON position and run
unit for 30 minutes to break in pump
parts.
4. Turn regulator knob fully
counterclockwise. Compressor will
build to maximum preset pressure and
shut off.
5. Turn regulator knob clockwise to
cause air to bleed off. Compressor will
restart at present pressure.
6. Turn regulator knob counterclockwise
to shut off air and turn switch to OFF
position.
7. Attach air chuck or other tool to open
end of hose. Turn regulator fully ON.
Apply a soap and water solution
around hose fittings and check for
signs of leaks (bubbles forming). If
there is a leak, tighten connections
and check again. When there are no
leaks, compressor is ready for
operation.

REGULATOR KNOB
1. This knob controls air pressure to an air
operated tool, or paint spray gun.
2. Turning knob clockwise increases air
pressure at outlet.
3. Turning counterclockwise will lower air
pressure at outlet.
4. Fully counterclockwise will shut off flow
of air completely.
