Safety Information (continued) GENERAL SAFETY DANGER: Never attempt to repair or modify a tank! Welding, drilling, or any other modification will weaken the tank, resulting in damage from rupture or explosion. Always replace worn, cracked, or damaged tanks. □ Read all manuals included with this product carefully. Be thoroughly familiar with the controls and the proper use of the equipment. CAUTION: See the compressor specification decal for maximum operating pressure.
Safety Information (continued) PERSONAL SAFETY □ Wear safety glasses and use hearing protection when operating the unit. WARNING: Never operate the compressor without a beltguard. This unit can start automatically without warning. Personal injury or property damage could occur from contact with moving parts. □ Do not stand on or use the unit as a hand hold. □ Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry that will get caught in the moving parts of the unit.
Warranty LIMITED TWO-YEAR WARRANTY WHAT IS COVERED From the date of purchase, parts and labor are covered to remedy substantial defects due to material and workmanship during the first year of ownership with the exceptions noted below. From the date of purchase, parts only are covered to remedy substantial defects due to material and workmanship during the second year of coverage with exceptions noted below. This warranty applies only to the original retail purchaser and may not be transferred.
Pre-Installation PLANNING INSTALLATION It is extremely important to install the compressor in a clean, well ventilated area where the surrounding air temperature will not be more than 100°F. Provide a minimum clearance of 18 in. between the compressor flywheel or fan and the wall, and ensure clear access to the drain valve to facilitate condensate drainage. Do not locate the compressor air inlet near steam, paint spray, sandblast areas, or any other source of contamination.

Pre-Installation COMPRESSOR COMPONENTS E G J A B F K I C D H Part A Description Pump - 2-stage compressor efficiently generates compressed air. B Motor - Electric induction drive that provides the power to spin the pump. C Pressure Switch (AUTO / OFF Switch) - In the AUTO position, the compressor shuts off automatically when the tank pressure reaches the maximum preset pressure.

Installation - Mounting ANCHORING THE AIR COMPRESSOR WARNING: This compressor is extremely top heavy. The unit must be bolted to the floor with isolation pads before operating to prevent equipment damage, injury, or death. □ Place the air compressor in a clean, dry, and well ventilated area. □ The air compressor must be positioned at least 18 in. away from the wall or other obstructions that will interfere with the air flow.
Installation - Electrical 1 Preparing for installation This product must be grounded. For units that do not have a factory installed cord, install permanent wiring from the electrical source to the pressure switch with a ground conductor connected to the grounding screw on the pressure switch. A properly sized cord with a ground conductor and plug may also be installed by the user. 1 Local electrical wiring codes differ from area to area.
Installation - Electrical (continued) 2 Preparing the pressure switch 1 □ Remove the pressure switch cover by loosening the screw (1), as shown. Use a Phillips screwdriver. □ Set the cover aside until wiring is completed. 2 □ Familiarize yourself with these internal components of the pressure switch. □ Refer to the illustration to identify the motor terminals (2), line terminals (3), ground screw (4), and ground line (5).
Assembly 1 Assembling the air compressor unit WARNING: Never use plastic (PVC) pipe for compressed air. Serious injury or death could result. This air compressor unit can be installed as part of an air distribution system. Any tube, pipe, or hose used in an air distribution system must have a pressure rating higher than 175 psi. The minimum recommended pipe size is 1/2 in. diameter. Using a larger diameter pipe is always better.
Assembly (continued) NOTE: Any tubing or hose connected to the outlet of the drain valve must be secured to not allow uncontrolled movement during operation. Install the automatic tank drain 3 (continued) Figure 3 - Unit Parts Identification □ Verify direction of water and air flow through the valve and install with the inlet side nearest to the tank. Control Panel Shut-off Valve (90° Rotation) Install automatic valve confirming direction of air and water flow. □ Plug in to 120V outlet.
Operation (continued) 2 Starting up and breaking in the compressor A □ Return power to the air compressor unit (A) from the main. □ Leave outlet port open to atmosphere (1). The tank will not readily build up any pressure. □ Move the pressure switch to the AUTO position to run the air compressor unit (A). □ Run the air compressor unit (A) for thirty (30) minutes at zero (0) psi (under no load) to break in the pump parts.
Maintenance All repairs should be performed by an authorized service representative. WARNING: Disconnect, tag, and lock out power source, and then release all pressure from the system before attempting to install, service, relocate, or perform any maintenance. 1 Checking and changing the oil Maintain the proper oil level by checking the oil sight glass (1) daily. Change the oil in the pump every 3 months. Use the following procedure to change (or add) oil.
Maintenance (continued) 4 5 Removing the belt Checking the belt □ Remove the beltguard screw (1). □ Loosen (but do not remove) the four bolts (1) holding the motor in place. □ Remove the front beltguard (2). The beltguards are held together by pressure snap-latches (3). Wedge a flathead screwdriver between the beltguards at the snap-latches. □ Shift the motor towards the pump. The belt should be slack and easily removable. □ Wedge a screwdriver at the other snap-latch junctions.
Maintenance (continued) 7 Checking the air filter 5 □ Remove the wing nut (1) and the washer (2). 4 3 2 1 □ Remove the air filter cover (3) from the air filter base (5). □ Remove and inspect the air filter element (4). □ If the air filter element is dirty, replace it. Install a new filter element. If the air filter element is clean, reinstall it. □ Reattach the air filter cover (3). □ Reattach the washer (2) and the wing nut (1).

Troubleshooting Problem The discharge pressure is low. The air compressor unit is making excessive noise (a knocking sound). Possible Cause □ The air demand exceeds the pump capacity. □ The air intake is restricted. □ There are air leaks in the fittings, tubing on the compressor, or the plumbing outside the unit. □ There are blown gaskets. □ There are leaking or damaged valves. □ The motor pulley or the flywheel is loose. □ The fasteners on the pump or the motor are loose.
Troubleshooting (continued) Problem The motor hums and runs slowly, or the motor does not run at all. The reset mechanism cuts out repeatedly or the circuit breaker trips repeatedly. The tank does not hold pressure when the compressor is off and the shut off valve is closed. The pressure switch continuously blows air out the unloader valve. There is excessive vibration. Possible Cause □ The voltage is low. Solution □ Check incoming voltage. It should be approximately 230V.
