If the motor overheats for any reason, the overload protector will shut off the motor. The motor must be allowed to cool down before restarting. To restart: 1. Place the On/Auto/Off lever in the "Off" position. 2. Allow the motor to cool. 3. Depress the red reset button on the motor. Reset Button Pressure Switch - Replacement Pressure loads beyond design limits may cause tank rupture or explosion. Pressure switch operation is related to motor HP, tank rating, and safety valve setting. Do not attempt to adjust, remove, or defeat the pressure switch, or change and modify any pressure control related device. If replacement is necessary the same rated switch must be used. Contact a trained service technician for replacement. To Replace Regulator 1. Release all air pressure from air tank. See "To Drain Tank" in the Maintenance section. 2. Unplug air compressor. 3. Remove the regulator ring and remove the console cover. Regulator Ring Cover 4.Remove the outlet pressure gauge, tank pressure gauge, and quick connect (if equipped) from the regulator. 5. Remove the regulator. NOTE: If regulator comes in contact with tank and is unable to be removed follow these steps: a. Using an adjustable wrench loosen pressure relief tube nut at air tank and pressure switch. b.

Orient outlet pressure gauge and tank pressure gauge to read correctly. Tighten quick connect with wrench. 10. If necessary, rotate pressure switch assembly into correct position. 11. If necessary, tighten pressure relief tube nuts at air tank and pressure switch. 12. If necessary, replace handle. Refer to Handle Assembly paragraph in the Assembly section. 13. Replace console cover and regulator ring. if parts of the body or loose items get caught in moving parts. Never operate the unit with the belt guard removed. The belt guard should be removed only when the compressor is unplugged. 1. Place the ON/AUTO-OFF lever in the "OFF" position. 2. Unplug compressor. 3. Remove the front of the belt guard by disengaging the snaps. Insert a flat bladed screwdriver at each snap location and pry the beltguard apart. 4. Loosen the wing nut on hold down plate and tilt motor to allow for easy removal or installation of the belt. Wing Nut 5. Remove belt. 6. Replace belt. NOTE: The belt must be centered over the grooves on the flywheel and motor pulley. 7. Turn the wing nut on the hold down plate until it makes contact with the washer, plus one additional turn. 8. Replace the belt guard. 23- ENG D23766 STORAGE Before you store the air compressor, make sure you do the following: 1. Review the "Maintenance" section on the preceding pages and perform scheduled maintenance as necessary. 2. Set the On/Auto/Off lever to "Off". 3. Turn the regulator counterclockwise and set the outlet pressure to zero. 4. Remove the air tool or accessory. 5. Pull ring on safety valve allowing air to bleed from the tank until tank pressure is approximately 20 psi. Release safety valve ring. 6. Drain water from air tank by opening drain valve on bottom of tank. Water will condense in the air tank. If not drained, water will corrode and weaken the air tank causing a risk of air tank rupture. 7. After the water has been drained, close the drain or drain valve. NOTE: If drain valve is plugged, release all air pressure. The valve can then be removed, cleaned, then reinstalled. 8. Protect the electrical cord and air hose from damage (such as being stepped on or run over). Wind them loosely around the compressor handle. (If so equipped) Store the air compressor in a clean and dry location.
