10. Turn the Tool Pressure Valve (part #13) counterclockwise to allow air to the

pneumatic tool. (See Figures B, and E.)

11. NOTE: When adjusting the air pressure being forwarded to the pneumatic tool,

you will need to compare the pressure readings of both the Tanks’ Pressure

Gauge (part #27) and the outlet Pressure Gauge (part #12). The reading on the

Tanks’ Pressure Gauge dictates the maximum air pressure at which the outlet

Pressure Gauge may be set. (See Figure E.)

12. With the Air Compressor running, and the air hose and pneumatic tool hooked up

to the Air Compressor, turn the Tool Pressure Valve (part #13)

counterclockwise to increase the air output to the tool, up to the maximum

rated pressure (125 PSI) as indicated on the Tanks’ Pressure Gauge (part #27).

(See Figure E.) In any case never exceed the pressure rating of the hose or tool

connected to compressor.

13. Turn the Tool Pressure Valve (part #13) clockwise to decrease the air output to

the tool, down to the minimum rated pressure (0 PSI) as indicated on the Tanks’

Pressure Gauge (part #27). (See Figure E.)

efficiently. (See Figure B.)

SAFETY VALVE (#29)

15. In the event fast decompression of the Air Tanks (part #39) is required, immedi-

ately turn off the Gasoline Engine (part #25) and pull out on the Pull Ring of the

Safety Valve (part #29) until both Air Tanks have fully decompressed.

(See Figures B, and E.)

16. Pull out on the Safety Valve (part #29) to immediately release air pressure in the

Air Tanks (part #39). (See Figure I.)

SKU 04169 PAGE 10 REV 09/03

17. When finished using the Air Compressor, turn off the Gasoline Engine

(part #25), and pull out on the Pull Ring of the Safety Valve (part #29) until both

Air Tanks (part #39) have fully decompressed. (See Figures B, and E.)

INSPECTION, MAINTENANCE, AND CLEANING

1. CAUTION! Aways release all pressure from the system and disconnect all

tools from the Air Compressor before performing any inspection, maintenance,

or cleaning. Be aware that the sudden release of air from any valve or air tool can

present a danger to one’s ears.

2. BEFORE EACH USE, inspect the general condition of the Air Compressor.

Check all air fittings for leaks. Check for loose screws, misalignment or binding

of moving parts, cracked or broken parts, damaged, and any other condition that

may affect the safe operation of this tool. If abnormal noise or vibration occurs,

immediately release all pressure from the system and have the problem cor-

rected before further use. Do not use damaged equipment.

The Drain Plugs are located underneath each Air Tank, and should be used daily

to release all trapped moisture that may cause Air Tank corrosion. Slowly and

carefully unscrew (no more than four threads) the Drain Plugs until the con-

densation begins to be released from the Air Tanks. Allow sufficient time for all of

the condensation to escape from the Air Tanks. Then, firmly re-tighten the Drain

Plugs. (See Figure E.)

3. DAILY: EMPTY CONDENSATION FROM THE AIR TANKS (part #39).

4. DAILY: Check the Air Compressor oil level. If necessary, fill with a premium

quality, 30-weight, non-detergent, compressor oil. NOTE: When checking the Air

Compressor oil level, make sure to unscrew (do not pull) the Oil Cap (part #23).

5. EVERY 100 HOURS OF USE: Clean the Air Filter Sleeve (part #1) with a mild

solvent. Then, dry and re-attach the Air Filter Sleeve. (Replace the Air Filter

Sleeve if it is too dirty to properly clean.) To clean or replace the Air Filter Sleeve,

remove the two Hex Socket Set Bolts. Remove the Air Filter Cover. Remove the

Air Filter Sleeve and clean. Then, replace the Air Filter Sleeve and two Hex

Socket Set Bolts. (See Figures E, and F.)
