COMPRESSOR FEATURES
1) MOTOR/PRESSURE SWITCH: This switch is used to start or stop the air
compressor. Moving the switch to the “Auto” (On) position will provide automatic
power to the pressure switch which will allow the motor to start when the air tank
pressure is below the factory set “cut-in” pressure. When in the Start/ Stop Option,
the pressure switch stops the motor when the air tank pressure reaches the factor
set “cut out” pressure. For safety purposes, this switch also has a pressure release
valve located on the side of the switch designed to automatically release compressed
air from the air compressor pump head and its discharge line when the air compressor
reaches “cut-out” pressure or is shut off. This allows the motor to restart freely. Moving
the switch to the “Off” position will remove power from the pressure switch and stop
the air compressor.
1
ON
OFF
2
2) MOTOR THERMAL OVERLOAD: The electric motor has a manual thermal
overload protector. If the motor overheats for any reason, the thermal overload will
cut off power, thus preventing the motor from being damaged. Wait until the motor is
cool before pressing the thermal overload button to reset and begin working again.
3) AIR INTAKE FILTER: This filter is designed to clean air coming into the pump. To
ensure the pump continually receives a clean, cool, dry air supply this filter must
always be clean and ventilation opening free from obstructions. The filter can be
removed for cleaning by using warm, soapy water. Rinse the filter and air dry. Replace
filter when necessary.
3
4) AIR COMPRESSOR PUMP: To compress air, the pistons move up and down in
the cylinders. On the downstroke, air is drawn in through the air intake valves while
the exhaust valves remain closed. On the upstroke, air is compressed, the intake
valves close and compressed air is forced out through the exhaust valves, into the
discharge line, through the check valve and into the air tank.
5) SAFETY RELIEF VALVE: This valve is designed to prevent system failures by
relieving pressure from the system when the compressed air reaches a predetermined
level. The valve is preset by the manufacturer and must not be modified in any way.
To verify the valve is working properly, pull on the ring. Air pressure should escape.
When the ring is released, it will reseat.
5
6
6) AIR TANK DRAIN VALVE: The drain valve is used to remove moisture from the air
tank(s) after the air compressor is shut off. NEVER attempt to open the drain valve
when more than 10 PSI of air pressure is in the air tank! To open the drain valve,
turn the knob counterclockwise.
8
7) AIR TANK PRESSURE GAUGE: The air tank pressure gauge indicates the
reserve air pressure in the air tank (s).
7
8) OUTLET PRESSURE GAUGE: The outlet pressure gauge indicates the air
pressure available at the outlet side of the regulator. This pressure is controlled
by the regulator and is always less or equal to the air tank pressure.
9) PRESSURE REGULATOR: The air pressure coming from the air tank is
controlled by the regulator knob. Turn the pressure regulation knob clockwise to
increase discharge pressure, and counterclockwise to decrease discharge
pressure.
9
10
10) OIL DIPSTICK: The dipstick will register the amount of oil in the pump. Oil level
should be checked on a daily basis to ensure it does not exceed the maximum
notch or fall below the minimum notch on the dipstick
9
PREPARATION
INITIAL SET-UP:
1. Read safety warnings before setting-up air compressor.
2. Ensure the oil level is above the minimum notch and below the maximum notch on the dipstick. If low, add
compressor pump oil.
LOCATION:
CAUTION
In order to avoid damaging the air compressor, do not incline the air compressor
transversely or longitudinally more than 10°.
1. Place air compressor at least 12 inches away from obstacles that may prevent proper ventilation.
Do not place air compressor in an area:
-where there is evidence of oil or gas leaks.
-where flammable gas vapors or materials may be present.
WARNING
Serious injury or death may occur if electrical sparks from motor and pressure switch
come in contact with flammable vapors, combustible dust, gases or other
combustible materials. When using the air compressor for spray painting, place the
air compressor as far away I from the work area as possible, using extra air hoses instead of
extension cords.
-where air temperatures fall below 32°F or exceed 104°F.
-where extremely dirty air or water could be drawn into the air compressor.
ELECTRICAL:
DANGER
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk
of shock or electrocution. Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel
if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. Do not use any type of
adapter with this product. If repair or replacement of the cord or plug is necessary, do not
connect the grounding wire to either flat blade terminal. The wire with insulation having
an outer surface that is green with or without yellow stripes is the grounding wire.
WARNING
This product must be grounded. If there should be a malfunction or breakdown,
grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the
risk of electric shock. This product is equipped with a cord having an equipment-
grounding conductor and a grounding type plug. The plug must be plugged into an
appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local
codes and ordinances.
1. SENCO® DOES NOT RECOMMEND THE USE OF EXTENSION CORDS as this can create power loss and
overheating of the motor. Use of an additional air hose is recommended rather than an extension cord. If use of an
extension cord is unavoidable, it should be plugged into a GFCI found in circuit boxes or protected receptacles.
When using an extension cord, observe the following:
Cable Length
Up to 25 feet
Up to 100 feet
Up to 150 feet
Up to 250 feet

Use only 3-blade extension cords that have 3-blade grounding-type plugs and 3-slot cord connectors that will
accept the plug from the product. Use only extension cords having an electrical rating not less than the rating of
the product. Do not use damaged extension cords. Examine extension cord before using and replace if damaged.
Do not abuse extension cord and do not yank on any cord to disconnect. Keep cord away from heat and sharp
edges. Always shut off the air compressor switch before removing the plug from the receptacle.

OPERATION
PRE-START CHECKLIST:
1. Check oil level. Add if necessary.
2. Remove any moisture in the air compressor air tank. Remove excessive pressure with an air tool, then open
the air tank drain valve in the bottom of the air tank. Close tightly when drained.
WARNING: Risk of bodily injury. NEVER attempt to open the drain valve when
more than 10 PSI of air pressure is in the air tank!
3. Make sure the air compressor Motor Switch is in the “OFF” position.
4. Make sure all safety valves are working correctly.
5. Make sure all guards and covers are in place and securely mounted.
START-UP:
1. Ensure the lever on the pressure switch box is in the “OFF” position.
2. Plug the power cord into a grounded outlet.
3. Move the lever on the pressure switch box to the “AUTO” position.
4. START/STOP OPTION: Turn it completely clockwise to the fully closed position. This will allow the air compressor
to “START” building up pressure in the air tanks and “STOP” when correct pressure is achieved. When pressure
drops with usage, the air compressor will “START” building up pressure again.
CONSTANT RUN OPTION: Locate the adjustment knob at the top of the pilot valve. Turn it completely
counterclockwise to the fully open position. The air compressor is now set up to “CONSTANTLY” build up
pressure. When pressure reaches the preset level in the air tank, pressure will bleed through the pilot valve.
5. Set pressure by adjusting the pressure regulator knob counterclockwise for less pressure and clockwise for
more pressure.
6. If you notice any unusual noise or vibration, stop the air compressor and refer to “Troubleshooting”.
SHUTDOWN:
1. To stop the air compressor, move the lever on the pressure switch box to the “OFF” position. NEVER stop the
air compressor by unplugging it from the power source. This could result in risk of electrocution.
2. Drain air from the air tanks by releasing air with an attached air tool or by pulling on the safety relief valve rings.
3. Once pressure in the air tanks register under 10 pounds, open the drain valve under each air tank to drain any
moisture.
4. Allow the air compressor to cool down.
5. Wipe air compressor clean and store in a safe, non-freezing area.
MAINTENANCE
