To operate the manual lock: Rotate the manual lock unloader lever to the open position to prevent air tank pressure F F buildup. Rotate manual lock unloader lever to the closed position after starting the engine to allow air tank pressure to build.

FEATURES
UNLOADER VALVE
When the maximum air tank pressure is obtained, the unloader
valve (H) will blow-off. This will cause the compressor to exhaust
the air to the atmosphere and not the tank. The valve is preset by
the manufacturer and must not be removed or modified in any way.
Manual Lock:
The manual lock allows you to manually unload the
compressor with air pressure in the air tank. To operate the manual
lock:
Rotate the manual lock unloader lever to the
OPEN
F
CLOSED
F
open
position to prevent air tank pressure
buildup. Rotate manual lock unloader lever
to the
closed
position after starting the
engine to allow air tank pressure to build.
NOTE:
Air will not build in tank when manual
lock unloader lever in the
open
position.
SAFETY VALVE
This valve (I) is designed to prevent system failures
I
by relieving pressure from the system when the
compressed air reaches a predetermined level.
The valve is preset by the manufacturer and must
not be removed or modified in any way.
AIR INTAKE FILTER
The filter (A) is designed to clean air entering the
A
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.
AIR TANK DRAIN VALVES
The drain valve (J) is used to remove
J
moisture from the air tank after the air
compressor is shut off.
AIR TANK PRESSURE GAUGE
The air tank pressure gauge (D) indicates air pressure in the air tank.
REGULATED PRESSURE GAUGE
The regulated pressure gauge (E) indicates
E
D
F
the air pressure available at the outlet side
of the regulator. This pressure is controlled
by the regulator and is always less or equal
to the air tank pressure.
REGULATOR
The regulator knob (F) controls the air
pressure coming from the air tank.
To Adjust Regulator:
1. Pull regulator knob (F) out to unlock.
2. Turn knob clockwise to increase regulated pressure and
counterclockwise to decrease regulated pressure.
3. When desired pressure is shown on the regulated pressure
gauge push knob in to lock.
WARNING:
Risk of Bursting. Too much air pressure causes a
hazardous risk of bursting. Check the manufacturer’s maximum
pressure rating for air tools and accessories. The regulator
outlet pressure must never exceed the maximum pressure
rating.
THROTTLE CONTROL
When maximum air tank pressure is reached and the unloader
valve vents air, it activates the throttle control on the engine.
