You have purchased an air compressor unit consisting

of an aluminum 2 cylinder, single-stage air compressor

pump (with cast iron sleeves), an air tank, wheel, handles,

associated controls and gauges.

Your air compressor can be used for operating paint

spray guns, air tools, caulking guns, grease guns, air

brushes, sandblasters, inflating tires and plastic toys,

spraying weed killers, insecticides, etc. An air pressure

regulator is supplied for these applications.

An air line filter is usually required for removal of mois-

ture and oil vapor in compressed air when a paint spray

gun is used.

An in-line lubricator is usually required for air tools to

prolong tool life.

Separate air filters which combine the functions of air

regulation and/or moisture and dirt removal should be

used where applicable.

Each air compressor unit is carefully tested and checked

before shipment. Damage may result from improper

handling during transit and cause problems in compres-

sor operation.

Immediately upon receipt of your air compressor, check

for both concealed and visible damages to avoid

expenses being incurred to correct such problems.

This should be done regardless of any visible signs of

damage to the shipping container. If this product was

shipped directly to you, report any damage to the carrier

and arrange for inspection of goods immediately.

All DeVilbiss Air Power manufactured air compressors

should be operated on not more than a 50% duty cycle.

This means an air compressor that pumps air more than

50% of one hour, is considered misuse because the air

CFM: Cubic feet per minute.

SCFM: Standard cubic feet per minute; a unit of

measure of air delivery.

PSIG: Pounds per square inch gauge; a unit of measure

of pressure.

ASME: American Society of Mechanical Engineers;

made, tested, inspected and registered to meet the

standards of ASME.

U.L. Listed: Products with the U.L. mark are listed by

Underwriters Laboratories, Inc. (U.L.). Samples of these

products have been evaluated by U.L. and meet the

applicable U.L. Standards of Safety.

California Code: Unit may comply with California Code

462 (L) (2)/(M) (2). Specification/model label is

compressor is undersized for the required air demand.

Maximum compressor pumping time per hour is 30

minutes.

on the side of the tank on units that comply with

California Code.

Cut-In Pressure: While the motor is off, air tank

pressure drops as you continue to use your accessory

or air tool. When tank pressure drops to a certain low

level the motor will restart automatically. The low

pressure at which the motor automatically re-starts is

called “cut-in pressure.”

Cut-Out Pressure: When you turn on your air com-

pressor and it begins to run, air pressure in the air tank

begins to build. It builds to a certain high pressure

before the motor automatically shuts off - protecting

your air tank from pressure higher than its capacity. The

high pressure at which the motor shuts off is called “cut-

out pressure.”

Drain Valve: A drain valve is located at the base of each

air tank and is used to drain condensation from each

tank at the end of each use.

Motor Thermal Overload Protector: The electric mo-

tor has an automatic thermal overload protector. If the

motor overheats for any reason, the thermal overload

protector will shut off the motor. The motor must be

allowed time to cool before it restarts itself.

OFF/ON-AUTO Switch (Pressure Switch): Turn this

switch to the "ON-AUTO" position to provide

automatic operation of the pressure switch and "OFF"

to remove power at the end of each use. The pressure

switch 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 “cut-out” pressure.

Air Intake Filter: This filter is designed to clean air

coming into the compressor pump. This filter must be

kept clean and the ventilation openings kept free from

obstructions. See "Maintenance" section.
