English • Equip area of operation with a fire extinguisher. • Do not op­er­ate machine with missing, broken, or un­au­tho­ rized parts. Features (Fig. 1) On/Off Switch Place this switch (A) in the ON position to provide automatic power to the pressure switch and OFF to remove power at the end of each use. G J A WARNING: RISK OF FALLING What can happen How to prevent it • A portable compressor can fall from a table, workbench, or roof causing damage to the compressor and could result in serious injury or death to the operator. • Always operate compressor in a stable secure position to prevent accidental movement of the unit. Never operate compressor on a roof or other elevated position. Use additional air hose to reach high locations. Pressure Switch The pressure switch (J) automatically starts the motor when the air tank pressure drops below the factory set cut-in pressure. It stops the motor when the air tank pressure reaches the factory set cut-out pressure. Pressure Release Valve The pressure release valve located on the side of the pressure switch, is designed to automatically release compressed air from the compressor head and the outlet tube when the air compressor reaches cut-out pressure or is shut off. The pressure release valve allows the motor to restart freely. When the motor stops running, air will be heard escaping from this valve for a few seconds. No air should be heard leaking when the motor is running or after the unit reaches cut-out pressure. CAUTION: risk from noise What can happen How to prevent it • Under some conditions and duration of use, noise from this product may contribute to hearing loss. • Always wear certified safety equipment: ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) hearing protection. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE USE Safety Valve If the pressure switch does not shut off the air compressor at its cut-out pressure setting, the safety valve (G) will protect against high pressure by popping out at its factory set pressure (slightly higher than the pressure switch cut-out setting). Check Valve When the air compressor is operating, the check valve (F) is open, allowing compressed air to enter the air tank. When the air compressor reaches cut- F out pressure, the check valve closes, allowing air pressure to remain inside the air tank.

missing, broken, or unautho-
rized parts.
WARNING:
RISK OF FALLING
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
HOW TO PREVENT IT
•
A portable compressor
can fall from a table,
workbench, or roof causing
damage to the compressor
and could result in serious
injury or death to the
operator.
• Always operate compressor
in a stable secure position to
prevent accidental movement
of the unit. Never operate
compressor on a roof or
other elevated position. Use
additional air hose to reach
high locations.
CAUTION:
RISK FROM NOISE
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
HOW TO PREVENT IT
• Under some conditions and
duration of use, noise from
this product may contribute
to hearing loss.
• Always wear certified safety
equipment: ANSI S1±.6
(S².19) hearing protection.

FEATURES (Fig. 1)
ON/OFF SWITCH
Place this switch (A) in the ON position to
G
A
J
provide automatic power to the pressure
switch and OFF to remove power at the
end of each use.
PRESSURE SWITCH
The pressure switch (J) automatically
starts the motor when the air tank pres-
sure drops below the factory set
cut-in
pressure. It stops the motor when the air tank pressure reaches the
factory set
cut-out
pressure.
PRESSURE RELEASE VALVE
The pressure release valve located on the side of the pressure switch,
is designed to automatically release compressed air from the compres-
sor head and the outlet tube when the air compressor reaches
cut-out
pressure or is shut off. The pressure release valve allows the motor to
restart freely. When the motor stops running, air will be heard escaping
from this valve for a few seconds.
No air should be heard leaking when
the motor is running or after the unit reaches
cut-out
pressure.
SAFETY VALVE
If the pressure switch does not shut off the air compressor at its
cut-out pressure setting, the safety valve (G) will protect against
high pressure by popping out at its factory set pressure (slightly
higher than the pressure switch cut-out setting).
CHECK VALVE
When the air compressor is operating, the check
F
valve (F) is open, allowing compressed air to enter
the air tank. When the air compressor reaches cut-
out pressure, the check valve closes, allowing air
pressure to remain inside the air tank.
