will reduce risk of electric shock. b. Do not expose compressor to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a compressor will increase the risk of electric shock. c. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for unplugging the compressor.Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock. Personal safety a. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating this compressor.
from those intended could result in a hazardous situation. Service Have your compressor serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the compressor is maintained. AIR COMPRESSOR SAFETY WARNINGS 1. Risk of bursting - do not adjust regulator higher than marked maximum pressure of attachment. 2. Risk of injury - do not direct air stream at people or animals. 3. Keep compressor well-ventilated. Do not cover compressor during use. 4.
well-ventilated. Do not smoke while spraying or spray where spark or flame is present. Keep compressor at least 20 feet away from explosive vapors, such as when spraying with a spray gun. If spraying flammable materials, locate compressor at least 20’ (6.1m) away from spray area. An additional length of air hose may be required. Store flammable materials in a secure location away from compressor.
safety instructions provided on the label or safety data sheets for the materials you are spraying. Always use certified safety equipment: NIOSH/OSHA respiratory protection or properly fitting face mask designed for use with your specific application. 17. DANGER: Risk Of Rursting Air Tank: Compressor tank safety: Air compressor receiver tanks do not have an infinite life.
19. Tires: WHAT CAN HAPPEN: Over inflation of tires could result in serious injury and property damage. HOW TO PREVENT IT: Use a tire pressure gauge to check the tires pressure before each use and while inflating tires; see the tire sidewall for the correct tire pressure. NOTE: Air tanks, compressors and similar equipment used to inflate tires can fill small tires very rapidly. Adjust pressure regulator on air supply to no more than the rating of the tire pressure.
should be avoided as well. 22. RISK OF HOT SURFACES WHAT CAN HAPPEN: Touching exposed metal such as the compressor head, engine head, engine exhaust or outlet tubes, can result in serious burns. HOW TO PREVENT IT: Never touch any exposed metal parts on compressor during or immediately after operation. Compressor will remain hot for several minutes after operation. Do not reach around protective shrouds or attempt maintenance until unit has been allowed to cool. Compressor head gets hot during operation.
Do not operate machine with missing, broken, or unauthorized parts. Never stand on the compressor. 25. RISK FROM NOISE WHAT CAN HAPPEN: Under some conditions and duration of use, noise from this product may contribute to hearing loss. HOW TO PREVENT IT: Always wear proper hearing protection during use. 26. AIR RECEIVER Over pressurizing the air receiver could cause personal injury or material damage. To protect from over pressurizing, a factory pre-set safety valve is installed.
number, the heavier the cord. d. 14 gauge (AWG) or larger. (Wire size increases as gauge number decreases. 12 AWG and 10 AWG may also be used. DO NOT USE 16 OR 18 AWG.) NOTE: Risk of Property Damage. The use of an undersized extension cord will cause voltage to drop resulting in power loss to the motor and overheating. Instead of using an extension cord, increase the working reach of the air hose by attaching another length of hose to its end. Attach additional lengths of hose as needed.
properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.Do not modify the plug provided -if it will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. 7. Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. 8. The conductor with insulation having an outer surface that is green with or without yellow stripes is the equipment-grounding conductor.

It stops the motor when the air tank pressure reaches the factory set "cut-out" pressure. Safety Valve : If the pressure switch does not shut off the air compressor at its "cutout" pressure setting, the safety valve will protect against high pressure by "popping out" at its factory set pressure (slightly higher than the pressure switch "cut-out" setting). Tank Pressure Gauge: The tank pressure gauge indicates the reserve air pressure in the tank.
INCLUDINGS: that collect dust clean. Do not place rags or other materials on top of the compressor, as this obstructs cooling and can be a fire hazard. 2. Remove four bolts from the slots. Slide the handle into the two slots on the top of the tank and secure in place with four bolts. 1. handle 2. wheels assembly 3. air filter assembly 4. foot pad assembly ASSEMBLY 1. Attach the wheels to the tank, using the nuts, screws, and spring washers.
5. Break-in the Compressor Break in the new Air Compressor as follows: a) Turn the Power Lever OFF and unplug the unit. Insert a male coupler (not provided)into the female Quick Coupler and fully open all regulators and valves. b) Plug in the Power Cord. c) Turn the Power Lever ON. d) Let the unit run for 30 minutes. Air will expel freely through the Coupler. e) Turn the Power Lever OFF. Unplug the Power Cord and remove the male coupler. 6.
Overheating. Certain air compressors can be operated on a 14 amp circuit if the following conditions are met. 1. Voltage supply to circuit must comply with the National Electrical Code. 2. Circuit is not used to supply any other electrical needs. 3. Extension cords comply with specifications. 4. Circuit is equipped with a 14 amp circuit breaker or 14 amp time delay fuse. NOTE: If compressor is connected to a circuit protected by fuses, use only time delay fuses.

OPARATION WARNING: Do not operate this unit until you read this instruction manual for safety, operation and maintenance instructions. Checking the Oil 1. Check the oil level before operation. Fill the Pump Crankcase with SAE 30W, non-detergent, Air Compressor Oil (not provided). IMPORTANT: Running the Air compressor with the incorrect amount of oil will cause damage to the equipment and void the warranty. To prevent damage, do not use with overfilled or low oil.
above) on the oil level window. 3. To add oil: a) Remove the Oil Breather Plug. b) Using a funnel to avoid spills, pour enough oil into the Pump Crankcase to reach the “full” level in the Oil Level Window. c) Replace the Oil Breather Plug. Cold Weather Operation Premium quality 30-weight, non-detergent air compressor oil (not provided) is recommended for use with this compressor. Start compressor in heated area if outdoor temperatures drop below 32° F.
never exceed the maximum pressure rating. b) Press Reset button. c) Turn the power lever to ON position NOTE: Risk of property damage. Compressed air from the unit may contain water condensation and oil mist. Do not spray unfiltered air at an item that could be damaged by moisture. Some air tools and accessories may require filtered air. Read the instructions for the air tools and accessories. Oparation Steps: 1. IMPORTANT: First, set the On/Off Power Lever to "OFF" position.
ON, the operation of the Air Compressor is automatic, controlled by an internal pressure switch. The Compressor will turn on automatically when the air pressure drops to 95 PSI, and will turn off automatically when the air pressure reaches 125 PSI. WARNING: TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY AND DEATH FROM EXPLOSION: Do not adjust the internal pressure switch. Any change to the automatic pressure levels may cause excess pressure to accumulate, causing a hazardous situation. 9.
not shown): The motor has a 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. If the compressor automatically shuts off before reaching its normal cutoff pressure. 1. To restart: a) Shut off all tools. b) Allow the motor to cool (about 10 minutes). c) If the unit does not start up again on its own, press the Reset Button to start the compressor. d) Resume operation. 2.
