AIR COMPRESSOR FEATURES

Electric Motor: Device which provides the rotational force necessary to operate the compressor pump.

Air Compressor Pump: To compress air, the pistons move up and down in the cylinders. On the downstroke, air is drawn in through the air intake valves while the exhaust valves remain closed. On the upstroke, air is compressed, the intake valves close and compressed air is forced out through the exhaust valves, into the discharge line, through the check valve and/or the pilot valve and into the air tank.

Safety Relief Valve: This valve is designed to prevent system failures by relieving pressure from the system when the compressed air reaches a predetermined level. The valve is preset by the manufacturer and must not be modified in any way. To verify the valve is working properly, pull on the ring. Air pressure should escape. When the ring is released, it will reset.

Pressure Switch: This switch is used to start or stop the air compressor. Moving the switch to the "Auto" (On) position will provide automatic power to the pressure switch which will allow the motor to start when the air tank pressure is below the factory set "cut-in" pressure. When in the Start/Stop Option, the pressure switch stops the motor when the air tank pressure reaches the factory set "cut-out" pressure. For safety purposes, this switch also has a pressure release valve located on the side of the switch designed to automatically release compressed air from the air compressor pump head and its discharge line when the air compressor reaches "cut-out" pressure or is shut off. This allows the motor to restart freely. Moving the switch to the "Off" position will remove power from the pressure switch and stop the air compressor.

Pressure Regulator: The air pressure coming from the air tank is controlled by the regulator knob. Turn the pressure regulation knob clockwise to increase discharge pressure, and counterclockwise to decrease discharge pressure

Air Tank Pressure Gauge: The air tank pressure gauge indicates the reserve air pressure in the air tank.

Outlet Pressure Gauge: The outlet pressure gauge indicates the air pressure available at the outlet side of the regulator. This pressure is controlled by the regulator and is always less or equal to the air tank pressure.

Drain Valve: The drain valve is used to remove moisture from the air tank after the compressor is shut off.

Power Cord: This product is for use on a nominal 120 V circuit and has a grounding plug. Only connect the product to an outlet having the same configuration as the plug. Do not use an adaptor with this product. Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if in doubt as to whether the product is properly grounded.
