INSTALLATION Assembly (Fig. 1) INSTALLING HANDLE Caution: Risk of personal injury. Avoid placing hands between handle and top panel when assembling to prevent pinching. 1. Place handle (O) into bushings on top panel (Q). 2. Depress snap buttons and slide handle through first bushings until it stops at second bushings. 3. Reach under top panel and depress snap buttons again and slide through second bushings. 4. Pull handle all the way up until it stops. Turn knobs (P) to lock handle in place. IMPORTANT: Always pull handle up and lock in place before using as a dolly. 5. If not using the dolly feature, loosen knobs and push handle down until it stops. Installing Hoses Warning: Risk of unsafe operation. Firmly grasp hose in hand when installing or disconnecting to prevent hose whip. 1. Ensure regulated pressure gauge reads 0 PSI (0 kPa). 2. Grasp the hose at the quick connect plug and push the plug into the quick connect body (E). Coupler will snap into place. 3. Grasp the hose and pull to ensure coupler is seated. 11

under
Maintenance.
COOLING SYSTEM
This compressor contains an advanced design cooling system.
It is normal for this fan to blow air through the vent holes in large
amounts. The cooling system is working when air is expelled.
AIR COMPRESSOR PUMP
The pump compresses air into the air tank. Working air is not
available until the compressor has raised the air tank pressure
above that required at the air outlet.
MOTOR OVERLOAD PROTECTOR
This motor has a manual thermal overload protector. If the motor
overheats for any reason, the overload protector will shut off the
motor. The motor must be allowed to cool down before restarting.
To restart:
1. Ensure the On/Off switch (A) is in the
M
K
OFF position.
2. Allow the motor to cool.
3. Depress the reset button (M) on the
motor.
OIL DIPSTICK
The oil dipstick (K) indicates the amount
of oil in the pump. Check pump oil daily,

AIR INTAKE FILTER
The filter (N) is designed to clean air entering the pump. 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.
