BREAK-IN PROCEDURE
WARNING: Serious damage may result if the following break-in
instructions are not closely followed.
This procedure is required before the air compressor is put into
service for the first time and when the check valve or a compressor
pump/motor has been replaced.

2. Plug the power cord into the correct branch circuit receptacle.
See Voltage and Circuit Protection under Installation.
3. Open the drain valve (counterclockwise) fully to permit air to
escape and prevent air pressure build up in the air tank during
the break-in period.
4. (D55170, D55180) Rotate the manual lock pilot valve lever to the
open position to assist with start up.
