1. Make sure the power is connected at the power panel.

2. Check the oil level in the pump (see “Checking the Oil” in the

maintenance section).

3. Open the petcock (see C).

Escaping air and moisture can

propel debris that may cause eye injury. Wear safety

goggles when opening petcock.

4. Turn ON the main power disconnect switch. Turn the

pressure switch to the AUTO position (see B). The motor

should start. Allow the compressor to run for 30 minutes, to

break in the internal parts.

NOTE: After about 30 minutes, if the unit does not operate

properly, SHUT DOWN IMMEDIATELY, and contact a

Sears or other qualified service center. DO NOT return

the unit to the store where it was purchased.

5. Shut OFF the main power disconnect. Close the petcock

(see D). Connect your air hose(s) to the tank outlet(s).

NOTE: As compressed air is used, the pressure switch will

restart the motor automatically to supply more

compressed air to the tank.

1. Check the oil level in the pump (see “Checking the Oil” in the

maintenance section).

2. Make sure the main power disconnect switch is shut OFF.

3. Close the tank petcock (see D).

4. Turn ON the main power disconnect switch. Turn the

pressure switch to the AUTO position (see B). The pump will

start filling the tank with air. When the air pressure in the

tank reaches the level preset at the factory, the pressure

switch will turn off the electric motor. As air is used and the

pressure level in the tank drops, the pressure switch will start

the motor and the pump will begin refilling the tank.

High temperatures are generated

by the pump. To prevent burns or other injuries, DO

NOT touch the pump or transfer tube while the pump

is running. Allow it to cool before handling or

servicing. Keep children away from the compressor

at all times.

NOTE: If the unit does not operate properly, SHUT DOWN

IMMEDIATELY, and contact a Sears or other qualified

service center.

1. Turn the pressure switch to the OFF position (see A).

2. Shut OFF the main power disconnect switch.

3. Reduce pressure in the tank through the outlet hose. You

can also pull the tank safety valve ring (see E) and keep it

open to relieve pressure in the tank.

Escaping air and moisture can

propel debris that may cause eye injury. Wear safety

goggles when opening petcock.

4. Open the petcock (see C) to allow moisture to drain from

the tank.
