Air compressors are utilized in a variety
of air system applications. Because air
compressors and other components
(material pump, spray gun, filters, lubri-
cations, hoses, etc.) used make up a
high pressure pumping system, the fol-
lowing safety precautions should be
observed at all times. Only persons well
acquainted with these rules of safe oper-
ation should be allowed to use the air
compressor.
1. Read instruction manuals for each
component carefully, before attempt-
ing to assemble, disassemble or
operate your particular system.
2. Wear safety glasses (meeting ANSI
Z87.1 or in Canada CSA Z94.3-99)
and use hearing protection when
operating the pump or unit. Everyday
glasses are not safety glasses.
3. Do not exceed pressure rating of any
component in system.
4. Protect material lines and air lines
from damage or puncture. Keep hose
and power cable away from sharp
objects, chemical spills, oil, solvents,
and wet floors.
5. Never point a spray gun at oneself or
any other person. Accidental dis-
charge may result in serious injury.
6. Check hoses for weak or worn condi-
tion, before each use, making certain
all connections are secure; do not
use if deficiency is found. Notify an
authorized service facility for exami-
nation or repair.
7. Release all pressures within system
slowly; dust and debris may be harm-
ful.
Before Using the Air Compressor
All electrical work should be
done by a qualified (licensed or
certified) electrician. On a prop-
erly wired circuit, the black
wires supply a voltage potential
even when the unit is off.
!
WARNING:
Disconnect power and depres-
surize system before servicing
air compressor! (Turn pressure
regulator knob fully clockwise
after shutting off compressor.)

the compressor unit.
!
WARNING:
Breathable Air Warning
This compressor/pump is not equipped and should not be used “as
is” to supply breathing quality air. For any application of air for
human consumption, the air compressor/pump will need to be fitted
with suitable in-line safety and alarm equipment. This additional
equipment is necessary to properly filter and purify the air to meet
minimal specifications for Grade D breathing as described in
Compressed Gas Association Commodity Specification G 7.1 - 1966,
OSHA 29 CFR 1910. 134, and/or Canadian Standards Associations
(CSA).
DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES
In the event the compressor is used for the purpose of breathing air
application and proper in-line safety and alarm equipment is not
simultaneously used, existing warranties shall be voided, and
Campbell Hausfeld disclaims any liability whatsoever for any loss,
personal injury or damage.
!
DANGER:
8. Follow all local electrical and safety
codes, as well as the National
Electrical Code (NEC) and the
Occupational Safety and Health Act
(OSHA).
9. Wiring and fuses should follow electri-
cal codes, current capacity, and be
properly grounded.
10. Electric motors must be securely and
adequately grounded. See grounding
instructions and extension cord infor-
mation in this manual.
11. Always disconnect power source
before working on or near a motor, or
its connected load. If power discon-
nect point is out-of-sight, lock it in the
open position and tag to prevent
unexpected application of power.
12. Guard all moving parts; keep visitors
away. Never allow children in work
area.
13. Use only a properly grounded outlet
that will accept a three pronged plug,
and wear shoes to prevent shock
hazards.
14. Be careful when touching exterior of
operating motor; it may be hot
enough to cause injury.
15. Protect power cable from coming in
contact with sharp objects.
16. Clean electrical or electronic equip-
ment with an approved cleaning
agent, such as dry, nonflammable
cleaning solvent.
17. To avoid spontaneous combustion,
discard waste rags into approved
metal waste cans.
18. Never store flammable liquids or
gases in vicinity of compressor.
19. When spraying with solvent of toxic
chemicals, follow instructions provid-
ed by the chemical manufacturer.
20. Spray in a well ventilated area, to
keep fumes from collecting and caus-
ing health and fire hazards.
21. Do not spray in vicinity of open
flames or other places where a spark
can cause ignition. Do not smoke
when spraying paint, insecticides, or
other flammable substances.
22. Use a respirator when spraying.
23. NEVER reset safety valve or pres-
sure switch. Keep safety valve free
from paint and other accumulations.
This provides safety against over
pressure.
24. Do regular maintenance; keep all
nuts, bolts, and screws tight, to be
sure equipment is in safe working
condition .
25. Keep cleaning rags and other flam-
mable waste materials in a tightly
closed metal container and dispose of
later in the proper fashion.
26. Drain tanks of moisture after each
day’s use. If unit will not be used for a
while, it is best to leave drain cock
open until such time as it is to be
used. This will allow moisture to com-
pletely drain out and help prevent
corrosion of inside of tank.
27. Inspect tank yearly for rust, pin holes
or any other imperfections that could
cause it to become unsafe. NEVER
weld or drill holes in air tank.

Thermal Overload Protector
If thermal overload protector shuts motor
OFF frequently look for the following
causes.
1. Low voltage.
2. Wrong gauge wire.
3. Clogged air filter.
4. Lack of proper ventilation.
5. Unit is being used with an extension
cord.
See Troubleshooting Chart for corrective
action.
This compressor is equipped
with an automatic reset thermal
overload protector which will
shut off motor if it becomes
overheated.
!
CAUTION:
The motor must be allowed to
cool down before start-up is
possible. The motor will auto-
matically restart without warn-
ing if left plugged into electrical
outlet, and the motor is turned
on.
!
CAUTION:
ASME Safety Valve
A safety valve that automatically releases
the air if the air receiver (tank) pressure
exceeds the preset maximum.
PSI (Pounds per Square Inch)
Measurement of the pressure exerted by
the force of the air. The actual psi output
is measured by a pressure gauge on the
compressor
SCFM (Standard Cubic Feet per
Minute)
Sometimes called CFM (Cubic Feet per
Minute). Measurement of air volume
delivered by the compressor.
Air Delivery
A combination of psi and SCFM. The air
delivery required by a tool is stated as
(number) SCFM at (number) psi. The
combination of these figures determines
what size unit is needed.
Air Tank Capacity
The volume of air stored in the tank and
available for immediate use. A large tank
allows the intermittent use of an air tool
with an air requirement higher than the
compressor’s rated delivery.
Volts or Voltage
A measurement of the force of an electri-
cal current.
Amps or Amperage
A measure of the electrical force minus
the resistance on an electrical line.
Ridgid air compressors require 15 amps
for operation. Be sure the compressor
will operate on an electrical line with the
proper amps. If other appliances operate
on the same line, they will reduce the
available amps. If the amperage is not
adequate, the result will be blown fuses
or tripped circuits.
Regulator
A control that adjusts the line pressure to
the proper amount needed to operate
spray guns and air tools.
Tanks Pressure Gauge
Indicates tank pressure in psi.
Glossary of Terms

The plug supplied on your tool may not
fit into the outlet you are planning to use.
Your local electrical code may require
slightly different power cord plug connec-
tions. If these differences exist refer to
and make the proper adjustments per
you local code before your tool is
plugged in and turned on.
In the event of a malfunction or break-
down, grounding provides a path of least
resistance for electrical current to reduce
the risk of electric shock. This tool is
equipped with an electric cord having an
equipment-grounding conductor and a
grounding plug, as shown. The plug must
be plugged into a matching outlet that is
properly installed and grounded in accor-
dance with all local codes and ordi-
nances.
Do not modify the plug provided. If it will
not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician.
Improper connection of the equipment-
grounding conductor can result in a risk
of electric shock. The conductor with
insulation having an outer surface that is
green with or without yellow stripes is the
equipment-grounding conductor. If repair
or replacement of the electric cord or
plug is necessary, do not connect the
equipment-grounding conductor to a live
terminal.
If the grounding instructions are not com-
pletely understood, or if you are in doubt
as to whether the tool is properly ground-
ed check with a qualified electrician or
service personnel.

during shipping, handling or
use. Damage may result in
bursting and cause injury or
property damage.
!
WARNING:
For your own safety, never
operate unit until all assembly
steps are complete and until
you have read and understood
the entire operator’s manual.
!
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of injury, if
any parts are missing, do not
attempt to operate the air com-
pressor until the missing parts
are obtained and installed cor-
rectly.
!
WARNING:
1. Check and tighten all bolts, fittings,
etc., before operating compressor.
2. Operate compressor in a ventilated
area so that compressor may be
properly cooled.
3. Compressor should be located where
it can be directly plugged into an out-
let. An extension cord should not be
used with this unit.
4. To avoid loss of power and overheat-
ing, additional air hose must be used
to reach work area instead of exten-
sion cords.
Installation

1. Read instructions: Carefully read
through this operator’s manual
BEFORE OPERATING the new air
compressor. It contains information
about operation and maintenance of
the unit.
2. Drain tank daily: Depressurize system
prior to draining tank. Open tank
drain valve and drain moisture from
tank. This helps prevent tank corro-
sion and keeps oil and moisture out
of the compressed air system. Be
sure to close tank drain valve tightly
before operating compressor.
3. Change air filter: Never run compres-
sor without an air filter nor with a
clogged air filter. Replace with a new
filter when the element is dirty.
Operating Your Air Compressor
13
Moisture in compressed air will form into
droplets as it comes from an air com-
pressor pump. When humidity is high or
when a compressor is in continuous use
for an extended period of time, this mois-
ture will collect in the tank. When using a
paint spray or sandblast gun, this water
will be carried from the tank through the
hose, and out of the gun as droplets
mixed with the spray material.
IMPORTANT: This condensation will
cause water spots in a paint job, espe-
cially when spraying other than water
based paints. If sandblasting, it will
cause the sand to cake and clog the gun,
rendering it ineffective.
A filter in the air line, located as near to
the gun as possible, will help eliminate
this moisture.
For Trouble-Free Operation
Moisture in Compressed Air
Make sure the tank drain valve is closed,
the regulator knob is turned fully counter-
clockwise, and the On/Off switch is in the
OFF position.
Plug compressor into a dedicated 15
Amp (minimum) circuit.
Turn On/Off switch to the ON position.
The compressor will now start building
pressure.
After compressor reaches cut-off pres-
sure, install a hose (with the desired air
tool attached) into the outlet fitting.
Adjust the regulator knob to the desired
pressure.
The compressor is now ready to operate.
Operating Your Air Compressor
Do not over-pressurize any air
tool. Consult air tool instruc-
tions for proper air tool pres-
sure.

1. Air Storage Tanks. The tanks store
air for later use.
2. Regulated Outlet Gauge. This gauge
shows at-a-glance, air pressure at
outlet. Air pressure is measured in
pounds per square inch (PSI). Most
tools have maximum pressure ratings.
Never exceed the maximum pressure
rating of the tool you are using. Be
sure this gauge reads ZERO before
changing air tools or disconnecting
hose from outlet.
3. Handle. Used to move the compres-
sor.
4. Regulator Knob. This knob controls
air pressure to an air operated tool or
paint spray gun. Turning the knob
clockwise increases air pressure at
the outlet. Turning counterclockwise
will lower air pressure at the outlet.
Fully counterclockwise will shut off the
flow of air completely.
5. Tank Pressure Gauge. Gauge shows
pressure in air receiver indicating
compressor is building pressure prop-
erly.
6. ASME Safety Valve. This valve auto-
matically releases air if the tank pres-
sure exceeds the preset maximum.
7. Air Outlet Fittings. These fittings are
1/4” universal-style quick connect fit-
tings and allow rapid tool changes.
8. Air Filter. The air filter keeps dirt and
debris from entering the compressor
pump and reduces compressor noise.
9. On/Off Switch. This switch allows
manual control of the compressor.
Note that when the switch is turned
on, the compressor will automatically
start and stop depending on tank
pressure.
10. Tank Drain Valve. The tank drain
valve allows moisture to be removed
from the tank.
Close Open

1. Check compressor for any visible
problems, especially check air filter to
be sure it is clean.
2. Pull ring on safety valve and allow it to
snap back to normal position.
3. Drain moisture from tank daily. Shut
compressor off. Depressurize system
prior to draining tank. Drain moisture
from tank by opening the tank drain
valve underneath the tank.
4. Turn power OFF and clean dust and
dirt from motor, tank, air lines and
pump cooling fins.
NOTE: The air filter in the filter housing
on the side of the head must be checked
and cleaned periodically, more often if
used under very dusty conditions or
when a great deal of fog from spraying is
allowed to circulate near unit.
IMPORTANT: Unit should be located as
far from spraying area as hose will allow
to prevent over-spray from clogging filter.
Maintenance

WHAT IS COVERED UNDER THE LIMITED THREE YEAR WARRANTY
This warranty covers all defects in workmanship or materials in this RIDGID air com-
pressor for the three-year period from the date of purchase. This warranty is specif-
ic to this air compressor. Warranties for other RIDGID products may vary.
HOW TO OBTAIN SERVICE
To obtain service for this RIDGID air compressor you must return it, freight prepaid,
to a service center authorized to repair RIDGID air compressors. You may obtain the
location of the service center nearest you by calling (toll free) 1-800-4-RIDGID or by
logging on to the RIDGID website at www.ridgid.com. When requesting warranty

ure or defect resulting from misuse, abuse, neglect, alteration, modification or repair
by other than a service center authorized to repair RIDGID branded air compressors.
Expendable materials, such as oil, filters, etc. are not covered by this warranty.
Gasoline engines and components are expressly excluded from coverage and you
must comply with the warranty given by the engine manufacturer, which is supplied

ADDITIONAL LIMITATIONS
To the extent permitted by applicable law, all implied warranties, including warranties
of MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, are disclaimed.
Any implied warranties, including warranties of merchantability or fitness for a par-
ticular purpose, that cannot be disclaimed under state law are limited to three years
from the date of purchase. Campbell Hausfeld is not responsible for direct, indirect,
incidental, special or consequential damages. Some states do not allow limitations
on how long an implied warranty lasts and/or do not allow the exclusion or limitation
of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitations may not apply to
you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other
rights, which vary from state to state.
