Operating Procedures
Daily Start-Up Procedures
1. Set the Auto-On/Off lever to the Off position.
2. Check the air compressor visually for any damage or
obstruction.
3. Close the drain valve.
4. Check the oil level of the pump.
5. Plug the power cord into the proper receptacle.
6. Turn the Auto-On/Off lever to the On-Auto position and
the compressor will start and build air pressure in the
tank to cut-out pressure and then shut off automatically.
7. Adjust the regulator to a PSI setting that is needed for your
application and be sure it is within the safety standards
required to perform the task. If using a pneumatic tool,
the manufacturer should have recommendations in the
manual for that particular tool on operating PSI settings.
8. The air compressor is now ready for use.
Daily Shut-Down Procedures
1. Set the Auto-On/Off lever to the Off position.
2. Unplug the power cord from the receptacle.
3. Set the outlet pressure to zero on the regulator.
4. Remove any air tools or accessories.
When draining the tank, always use ear and eye protection.
Drain the tank in a suitable location; condensation will be
present in most cases of draining.
5. Open the drain valve allowing air to bleed from the tank.
After all of the air has bled from the tank, close the drain
valve to prevent debris buildup in the valve.
Water that remains in the tank during storage will corrode
and weaken the air tank which could cause the tank to
rupture. Please be sure to drain the tank after each use or
daily.

NOTE
Any service procedure not covered in the above mentioned maintenance schedule should be performed by authorized
service personnel.
The air compressor should be turned
off and unplugged from the power
source before any maintenance is performed as well as the
air bled from the tank and the unit allowed time to cool.
Personal injuries could occur from moving parts, electrical
sources, compressed air or hot surfaces.
WARNING
To ensure efficient operation and longer
life of the air compressor unit, a routine
maintenance schedule should be followed. The following
schedule is geared toward a consumer whose
compressor is used in a normal working environment on a
daily basis. If necessary, the schedule should be modified to
suit the conditions under which your compressor is used.
The modifications will depend upon the hours of operation
and the working environment. Air compressors used in an
extremely dirty and/or hostile environment will require a
greater frequency of all maintenance checks.
