INSTALLATION:
Please read and follow the Installation Instructions
carefully to avoid injury or damage to the compressor
or your vehicle.
Selecting a Mounting Location:
The selection of a proper mounting location for your air
sourcekitwillhelpensurealongandtroublefreeservicelife.
Pleasepay close attention to the following guidelines:
1. Select a FLAT,UPRIGHTANDSECURE location where
the air source kit can be mounted.
2.Tomaximizeaircompressorperformance,locate
compressor as CLOSETOTHEBATTERY as possible so
 thatlengthofpositiveleadwirerequiredisataminimum.
3.Choosemountinglocationthatisascoolaspossible
and AWAYFROMHEATSOURCES. The cooler the ambient
 temperaturethelesschancethecompressorwilloverheat.
4.Thecompressorismoisture&splashresistant,but
NOTWATERPROOF. Do not mount air source kit in locations
where the unit is likely to come in contact with water.
5. If it is necessary to mount the air compressor further away
 fromthebattery,suchasinsideyourvehicleorinthebedof
 yourpickup,useaminimum8AWGpositiveleadwire
for remote installation.
6.Donotmountairsourcekitnearareaswhereammable
 liquidsarestored.

MOUNTING AND WIRING:
1.Disconnectgroundcablefromvehicle’sbattery.
2. Temporarily position the air source kit in the location
where it will be mounted.
3.Routegroundwiretothenegativepostofthebatteryorto
an appropriate grounding point and cut ground wire to
length as needed.
4.Mountairsourcekitattanklegmountswiththefour
 grommets,andfoursetsofbolts,nuts,washers,
 andlockingwashersprovided.Useofthreadsealant
is recommended.
5.Route3/8-inchI.D.airlinefromthe1/2-inchtankport
 toa3/8-inchcompressionttingandmakeyourairline
 connection.Tightencompressionttingnutsecurely
using a wrench.
6.Connectground(Black)wiretoacleanground,(preferablya
 chassisground)andsecurewithaself-tappingscrew.
7.Connectpositive(Red)leadwirefrompre-installed
 pressureswitchtoafuseholder(20-ampminimum).
8.Oncethekitisproperlyfusedascloseaspossibleto 
 thepowersource,connectandtestcompressorsystem
by running the compressor for a short time to build up
pressure in your air tank.
9. Once air pressure reaches preset cut out pressure of
 yourpressureswitch(165PSIcut-on,200PSIcut-off),the
compressor will shut off automatically. Inspect all air line
connections for leaks with soap and water solution. If a leak
 isdetected,theairlinemaynotbecutsquarelyorpushed
all the way in. Tighten connections if needed.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS:
1. IMPORTANT:AlwaysoperatethecompressorBELOWthe
 MAXIMUMPRESSURERATINGofthecompressor.
 PleaserefertoApplication&SpecicationsSectionsof
this manual for details.
2.AlwaysobservetheMAXIMUMDUTYCYCLEofthe
 aircompressor.RefertoCompressorApplications
 andSpecicationsSectionofthismanualfordetails. 
 Operationexceedingmaximumpressureratingsandor
duty cycle will result in damage to air compressor.
3.YouraircompressorisequippedwithanAUTOMATIC
 THERMALOVERLOADPROTECTOR.Thisfeatureis
 designedtoprotecttheaircompressorfromoverheating
causing permanent damage to your air compressor.
 Thethermaloverloadprotectorwillautomaticallycutoff
power to your air compressor should the internal operating
 temperatureoftheaircompressorriseabovesafelevels
 duringexcessiveuse.
4.Shouldatanytimeduringuse,youraircompressor
automatically shuts off; do not attempt to restart air
compressor. Turn power switch to the air compressor to
 theOFFposition.Theautomaticthermaloverloadprotector
will automatically reset when internal temperature of the
 aircompressordropsbelowsafelevels.Afterallowing
 aircompressortocooloffforabout30minutes,youcan
safely resume use of the air compressor by turning on
the air compressor.
5.Topreventdischargeofyourvehicle’sbattery,westrongly
