Note: Whenever the compressor has not been run for more than a few days, allow it to run with the drain valve open for 5 minutes to fully lubricate the motor. Model G0464/G0465/G0467/G0468/G0470 Air Compressors -11 6. Close the drain valve (Figure 5) to allow the tank to build up pressure. Figure 5.Drain valve. 7. Check the tank pressure gauge (Figure 6) to see that the tank pressure climbs to approximately 115-120 PSI (around 8 BAR), then automatically turns OFF. Note: If the compressor does not automatically turn OFF at 120 PSI (115 PSI for the Model G0468), flip the ON/ OFF switch to OFF before the pressure reaches the maximum PSI shown on Page 3. See Pressure Switch on Page 21 to adjust the automatic shutoff. Figure 6.Pressure gauges. Tank Pressure Line Pressure Line Pressure Regulation The tank pressure is displayed on the left pressure gauge, and the air to be delivered to the tool (line pressure) is displayed on the right pressure gauge, shown in Figure 6. The air tool that you attach to the air compressor should have a preferred PSI operating level. Set the pressure to be delivered to the tool according to the required level of the tool. To control the air supply to your tool: 1. Adjust the air control knob, shown in Figure 7, to set the PSI that will be delivered to your tool. Turn the knob clockwise to increase the pressure or counterclockwise to decrease the pressure. Figure 7.Tool air control knob. Air Control Knob Lock Ring 2. Rotate the lock ring shown in Figure 7 against the bottom of the air control knob to prevent changes in the air pressure. -12-Model G0464/G0465/G0467/G0468/G0470 Air Compressors Connecting Tools When choosing air tools, consider the amount of air used (cubic feet per minute or CFM) by the tool. Nailers and staple guns have a low CFM requirement because they use air in short bursts. A paint sprayer or a pneumatic grinder uses a more continuous stream of air requiring a high CFM. Make sure the air tool you plan to connect does not exceed the CFM output of your compressor. Most air tools will have an air requirement stated in terms of a specific CFM at a specific pressure. Air tools being operated with insufficient air volume will not perform their function satisfactorily and they will cause the air compressor to run continually. When an air compressor runs continually it may overheat, causing damage to the compressor and the possibility of a fire. This compressor is fitted with thermal protection inside the motor. If the compressor overheats, the motor will automatically turn OFF until it cools down. To connect air tools to your air compressor: 1. Follow the compressor Starting instructions on Page 11. 2. Connect the tool to a good quality air hose that is long enough to reach from the point of use to the compressor. Note: Be aware of the placement of the hose to prevent damage. Make certain the air hose is not located where it can become constricted, cut by a sharp object, or run over. Running over a hose with a vehicle may not cause an immediate leak, but it will shorten the life of the hose. 3. Connect an air line with a 1.4" NPT plug to the quick-connect coupler on the air compressor shown in Figure 8. Note: There are many styles of 1.4" NPT quick connect couplers. If the quick connect coupler included with the compressor does not fit the plug on your air hose, purchase a matched set at your local hardware store. Figure 8.Quick connect coupler. These air compressors are specifi- cally designed for air tool operation. DO NOT modify, or use this machine for any other purpose. Modifications or improper use of this tool will void the warranty. If you are confused about any aspect of this machine, DO NOT use it until your questions have been answered. Serious per- sonal injury may occur. Model G0464/G0465/G0467/G0468/G0470 Air Compressors -13 Storage When storing your air compressor, follow these guidelines: 1. Turn the compressor switch lever to OFF. 2. Unplug the compressor. 3. Turn the regulator counterclockwise to set the line pressure to zero. 4. Run the air tool to relieve the air pressure in the hose, then remove the air hose and the tool. 5. Drain water from the tank as instructed in Draining Tank on Page 16. Leave the valve open until the next usage. Note: Draining the air from the tank can be extremely loud. Wear ear protection when draining the tank. 6. Store the air compressor in its normal operating position in a cool protected area. Failure to unplug the air compressor before storage may result in the compressor running continuously, causing overheating, damage to the compressor, and possibly a fire. Water will condense in the air com- pressor tank. Water left in the tank can cause the tank to weaken and corrode, increasing the risk of tank rupture. Always disconnect the air hose from tools whenever not in use or while servicing! During maintenance, a tool connected to air may operate accidentally, causing serious personal injury! -14-Model G0464/G0465/G0467/G0...
