Use and Care Manual

WARNING: Wear safety goggles when opening drain valve as escaping air and moisture may propel de-

bris that may cause eye injury. Wear ear protection as it can be very loud when the relief valve ring is open.

THERMAL OVERLOAD PROTECTOR

The thermal overload protector shuts down the motor when it is overloaded. When the thermal overload trips,

the air compressor will stop working. Let the motor cool down for a few minutes. To restart the motor, unplug the

power cord and plug it back in. Put the pressure switch to ON/AUTO position.

SHUTTING DOWN THE COMPRESSOR

1. Turn the pressure switch to the OFF position. Then unplug the power

cord.

2. Reduce pressure in the tank through the outlet hose or by pulling the

pressure relief valve ring (Fig. 4 - 1). This is an emergency overpressure

relief. When pulled open, it will lower the pressure down to 75 PSI and

close automatically. To lower the pressure below 75 PSI or to drain the

tank, pull on the ring and hold it open.

3. Drain water from the tank by opening the tank drain valve (counter-

clockwise) on the bottom of the tank (Fig. 2).
