ON/OFF Switch (1):
Turn this switch ON to provide automatic power to the pressure switch and
OFF to remove power.
Pressure Switch Box (2): The pressure switch box automatically starts the motor when the air
tank pressure drops below the factory set "cut-in" pressure.
It stops the motor when the air tank pressure reaches the factory set "cutout" pressure.
Air Tank Safety Valve (3): If the pressure switch does not shut off the air compressor at its
cut-out pressure setting, the safety valve will protect against high pressure by "popping off" at its
factory set pressure (slightly higher than the pressure switch cut-out setting).
Air Tank Pressure Gauge (4): The air tank pressure gauge indicates the reserve air pressure in

5
the air tank (big one) and the output pressure (small one).
Air Intake Filter (5): This filter is designed to clean air coming into the pump. This filter must
always be clean and ventilation openings free from obstructions. See "Maintenance".
Air Compressor Pump (6): To compress air, the pistons moves up and down in the cylinder. On
the down stroke, air is drawn in through the air intake valves. The exhaust valve remains closed. On
the upstroke of the piston, air is compressed. The intake valves close and compressed air is forced
out through the exhaust valve, through the outlet tube, through the check valve and into the air tank.
Working air is not available until the compressor has raised the air tank pressure above that required
at the air outlet.
Air Pressure Regulator (7): Controls the air pressure shown on the outlet pressure gauge.
Pull the knob out and turn clockwise to increase pressure and counterclockwise to decrease pressure.
When the desired pressure is reached push knob in to lock in place.
Quick Connect (8): Connect the air hose or accessory easily.
Check Valve (not shown): 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.
Drain Valve (not shown): Located at the base of the air tank to drain condensation.
INSTALLATION
WARNING: Improper electrical installation of this pro uct may voi its warranty an your fire
insurance. Have circuit wiring performe by qualifie personnel such as a license
electricians who is familiar with the current national electrical co e an any prevailing local
electrical co es.
Location of the Air Compressor
WARNING: The manifol assembly oes not provi e a equate stability or support for lifting
the unit. If the unit must be move , use the air tank for lifting.
Operate the air compressor in a clean, dry, and well-ventilated area. The air intake filter must be kept
clear of obstructions which could reduce air delivery of the air compressor. The air compressor should
be located at least 2" away from walls or other obstructions that could interfere with the flow of air.
For Belt Driven mo el,
The air compressor crankcase and head are designed with fins to provide proper cooling.
The flywheel side of the unit should be placed toward the wall and protected with a totally enclosed
belt guard. The area should allow space on all sides for air circulation and for ease of normal
maintenance.
Keep the unit away from areas, which have dirt, vapor, and combustible fumes in the atmosphere
which may clog and gum the intake filter and valves, causing inefficient operation. If humidity is high,
an air filter can be installed in line to remove excessive moisture.

6
Closely follow instructions packaged with the filter for proper installation. It must be installed as close
as possible to the accessory.
The air compressor should be as near to air outlets as possible in order to avoid long pipe lines. Do
not place the air compressor where heat is excessive.
Do not use an extension cord. To avoid voltage drop and power loss to the motor, use extra air hose
instead of an extension cord.
Wiring Instructions
Perform electrical wiring according to the following instructions:
WARNING: Improper electrical groun ing can result in a risk of electrical shock. Wiring for the
pressure switch AND electrical motor shoul be one by a license electrician in accor ance
with national an local co es an or inances.
Install the air compressor unit as close to the main power supply as possible. This practice will avoid
using long lengths of electrical wiring for the power supply which can cause power loss to the motor.
When connecting wires make sure that:
. The amperage rating of the electrical box is adequate.
2. The supply line has the same electrical characteristics (voltage, cycle, and phase) as motor.
Refer to the Specification Chart or your air compressor unit.
NOTE: THESE UNITS DO NOT INCLUDE ANY WIRING BECAUSE OF VARIOUS INSTALLATION
REQUIREMENTS.
Voltage an Circuit Protection
Refer to the Specifications for the voltage and circuit protection requirements of your air
compressor. Use only a fuse or circuit breaker that is the same rating as the branch circuit
on which the air compressor is operated. If the air compressor is connected to a circuit
protected by fuses, use only dual element time delay fuses, as noted in the Specifications.
WARNING: This pro uct shoul be connecte to a groun e , metallic, permanent
wiring system, or an equipment-groun ing terminal or lea on the pro uct.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK! In the event of a short circuit, groun ing re uces
the risk of shock by provi ing an escape wire for the electric current. This air compressor
must be properly groun e .
DANGER: Improper groun ing can result in electrical shock! All groun ing shoul be
performe by a license electrician in accor ance with national an local electrical co es!
Make certain that the electrical circuit to which the air compressor is connected provides proper
electrical grounding, correct voltage and adequate fuse protection.
The air compressor can be grounded by the following method:
When hard wiring an air compressor, use wiring that contains a bare copper grounding wire. This wire
must be connected to the pressure switch at the grounding location provided. This is located inside
the pressure switch. The other end of the wire must be connected to a ground at the fuse/circuit
breaker box in accordance with national and local electrical codes.
If these grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if you are in doubt as to whether the
air compressor is properly grounded, have the installation checked by an Authorized Warranty
Service Center or a licensed electrician.
