Use and Care Manual
5. Turn the pressure switch (Fig. 3 - 2) to the ON/AUTO position (to the left) to allow the compressor to auto-
matically start up and shut down depending on its need for air. NOTE: Make sure this switch is set to OFF before
unplugging, plugging in, or storing the compressor.
WARNING: To prevent burns or other injuries, DO NOT touch the compressor while it is running. Al-
low it to cool before handling or servicing. Keep children away from the compressor at all times.
6. Allow the compressor to reach the desired PSI on the tank pressure gauge before turning off the compressor.
If left on, the compressor will reach its maximum PSI of 125 and turn off automatically. Then once the tank PSI
lowers to 95 PSI, the compressor will automatically turn back on until it reaches its max PSI again. Check the tank
pressure gauge (Fig. 3 - 3). DO NOT ALLOW THE COMPRESSOR TO FILL UP TO MORE THAN 125 PSI.
7. Turn the tool pressure regulator (Fig. 3 - 4) to control the output of air flow from the compressor. The tool pres-
sure gauge (Fig. 3 - 5) will show you the current pressure from the air line outlet. Make sure that this pressure is not
higher than the working pressure of any pneumatic tools hooked up to the compressor. Using a pressure higher
than the rated pressure of an attached tool creates the possibility of damaging or, in worse case scenarios, bursting
said power tool. Using a pressure that is too low for a tool can result in misfires and improper function.
OPERATION
STARTING THE COMPRESSOR
1. Before each use, inspect the general condition of the machine. Any dam-
aged parts should be replaced using identical replacement parts by a quali-
fied service technician before operation.
2. Check that the pressure switch is switched to the OFF position (to the
right) and the tank drain valve is closed (perpendicular to the drain tube).
3. Connect an air hose (not included) to the air line outlet (Fig. 3 - 1). Make
sure the air hose is rated high enough to handle the max PSI of the com-
pressor (125 PSI).
NOTE: All connections should be made with thread seal tape (not includ-
ed) properly wrapped around the threads of the accessory connections.
4. Connect the electrical plug to a power supply. NOTE: The compressor
must be at least one foot from any wall or obstruction in a well-ventilated
area to maximize proper air flow. Do not cover the compressor.

TURNING THE COMPRESSOR ON & OFF (Fig. 1)
1. Move the switch to the left to set the tool to ON/AUTO mode.
2. Move the switch to the right to set the tool OFF mode.
CLOSING & OPENING THE TANK DRAIN VALVE (Fig. 2)
1. Before operation, close the tank drain valve by moving the valve clock-
wise (perpendicular to the drain tube).
2. After operation, drain the tank by moving the tank drain valve counter-
clockwise (in line with the drain tube) to open.
