Before Starting

Break-in instructions

Serious damage may result if the following break-in

instructions are not closely followed.

This procedure is required before the air compressor is put into service and

when the check valve or a complete compressor pump has been replaced.

1. Make sure the On/Auto/Off lever is in the "OFF" position.

NOTE: If quick connect is installed, pull coupler back until it clicks to prevent

air from escaping through the quick connect.

Plug the power cord into the correct branch circuit receptacle.

(Refer to

Voltage and Circuit Protection paragraph in the Installation section of this

manual.)

3. Open the drain valve fully (counter-clockwise) to permit air to escape and

prevent air pressure build up in the air tank during the break-in period.

NOTE: Always drain tank on a washable surface or in a suitable

container to prevent damaging or staining surfaces.

4. Move the On/Auto/Off lever to "ON/AUTO" position. The compressor will

start.

5. Run the compressor for 15 minutes. Make sure the drain valve is open and

there is minimal air pressure build-up in tank.

6. After 15 minutes, close the drain valve (clockwise). The air receiver will fill

to "cut-out" pressure and the motor will stop.

The compressor is now ready for use.

Check Valve: When the air compressor is

operating, the check valve is "open", allowing

compressed air to enter the air tank. When the air

compressor reaches "cut-out" pressure, the check

valve "closes", allowing air pressure to remain inside

the air tank.

Pressure Release Valve: The pressure release

valve located on the side of the pressure switch, is

designed to automatically release compressed air

from the compressor head and the outlet tube when

the air compressor reaches "cut-out" pressure or is

shut off. The pressure release valve allows the motor to

restart freely. When the motor stops running, air will be

heard escaping from this valve for a few seconds. No

air should be heard leaking when the motor is running,

or continuous leaking after unit reaches "cut-out"

pressure.
