Safety Instructions

Lubrication
Follow the warnings in this
manual and on the
compressor and unplug all
air lines and power from
the unit before removing
front cover. The four
screws on the sides hold
the cover in place.
Your compressor uses oil
impregnated bushings
which should not need
lubrication. NEVER PUT OIL IN THE AIRLINES OF THE
COMPRESSOR or an explosion could result!!
To lubricate both air pistons ONLY USE WHITE LITHIUM GREASE.
Disassembly of the pistons is not required. Simply put a dab of
grease on the exposed piston shaft near the end of the cylinder. Once
the unit is turned on, the grease will get pulled into the cylinder as the
piston moves in and out. See our website videos on the Support page

AC Motor
The Dayton AC motor is 1/3 horsepower and runs off standard 110
volt household current. It should be plugged into a grounded 20 amp
receptacle. The motor has built-in overload protection and will shut off
if overheated. The motor will start unexpectedly when cooled off, so
be sure to unplug unit if overheating occurs.
