IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS:
USER MANUAL
Please read and follow the Installation Instructions
carefully to avoid injury or damage to the
compressor or your vehicle.
Selecting a Mounting Location:
The selection of a proper mounting location for your air source kit will
help ensure a long and trouble free service life.
Please pay close attention to the following guidelines:
1. Select a FLAT, UPRIGHT AND SECURE location where the

INSTALLATION:
USER MANUAL
USER MANUAL
HIGH-FLOW 150 PSI AIR SOURCE KIT
MOUNTING AND WIRING:
1. Disconnect ground cable from vehicle’s battery.
2. Temporarily position the air source kit in the location
where it will be mounted.
3. Mount air source kit at tank leg mounts with the four
grommets, and four sets of bolts, nuts, washers,
and locking washers provided. Use of thread locker
is recommended.
4. Route 1/2-inch O.D. air line to the 1/2-inch compression
fitting and make your air line connection. Tighten
compression fitting nut securely using a wrench.
5. Connect ground (Black) wire to a clean ground,
(preferably a negative post of battery) and secure with
proper hardware.
6. Connect positive (Red) lead wire from pre-installed
pressure switch to a fuse holder (25-amp minimum).
7. Once the kit is properly fused as close as possible to the
power source, connect and test compressor system by
running the compressor for a short time to build up
pressure in your air tank.
8. Once air pressure reaches preset cut out pressure of
your pressure switch (110 PSI cut-on, 145 PSI cut-off),
the compressor will shut off automatically. Inspect all air
line connections for leaks with soap and water solution. If
a leak is detected, the air line may not be cut squarely or
pushed all the way in. Tighten connections if needed.

HIGH-FLOW 150 PSI AIR SOURCE KIT
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS:
1. IMPORTANT: Always operate the compressor BELOW the
MAXIMUM PRESSURE RATING of the compressor. Please
refer to Application & Specifications Sections of this manual
for details.
2. Always observe the MAXIMUM DUTY CYCLE of the
air compressor. Refer to Compressor Applications
and Specifications Section of this manual for details.
Operation exceeding maximum pressure ratings and or duty
cycle will result in damage to air compressor.
3. Your air compressor is equipped with an AUTOMATIC
THERMAL OVERLOAD PROTECTOR. This feature is
designed to protect the air compressor from overheating
causing permanent damage to your air compressor.
The thermal overload protector will automatically cut off
power to your air compressor should the internal operating
temperature of the air compressor rise above safe levels
during excessive use.
4. Should at any time during use, your air compressor
automatically shuts off; do not attempt to restart air
compressor. Turn power switch to the air compressor to the
OFF position, or remove the in-line fuse. The automatic
thermal overload protector will automatically reset when
internal temperature of the air compressor drops below safe
levels. After allowing
air compressor to cool off for about 30 minutes, you can
safely resume use of the air compressor by turning on
the air compressor.
5. To prevent discharge of your vehicle’s battery, we strongly
recommend that you keep the vehicle’s engine running while
using the air compressor. Compressor performance is
enhanced when operating compressor with vehicle’s engine
running.
6. IMPORTANT: ONLY OPERATE THE AIR
COMPRESSOR IN WELL-VENTILATED AREAS.
HIGH-FLOW 150 PSI AIR SOURCE KIT
AIR TANK PRECAUTIONS:
IMPORTANT:
a.
The air source kit air tank is rated for 150 PSI maximum
working pressure. Do not overfill. Overfilling may result
in death or serious injury.
b.
Tank is not to be used as a breathing device.
c.
Always wear ANSI approved safety glasses when
operating air tank.
d.
Bleed pressure from tank after each use, and before
servicing or adding attachments.
e.
Use only attachments or tools rated for 150 PSI working
pressure or more.
DRAIN TANK OFTEN TO REMOVE CONDENSATE. FAILURE
TO DRAIN TANK WILL ALLOW TANK TO RUST INTERNALLY.
a. To remove any accumulated condensation inside the tank,
bleed pressure from tank until pressure is approximately
5 PSI to 20 PSI.
b. Drain water from tank by opening the drain cock drain valve.
c. If drain cock is plugged, release all air pressure from tank,
remove drain valve and clean, then reinstall.
d. After condensate has been drained, close the drain cock.
USER MANUAL
IMPORTANT: Observe air tank Date of Manufacture
(stamped on tank leg). Replace air tank 2 to 5 years from date
air tank was first used, or use the date of manufacture as a
reference. Your adherence to air tank draining guidelines will
determine the replacement date of your air tank. RUSTED
TANKS CAN FAIL CAUSING EXPLOSIONS OR FATAL
INJURIES. Discard tank immediately if tank is rusted.
NOTE: When using a safety pressure relief valve, point
the safety pressure relief valve away from your body. Use
the pull ring on the safety relief valve; open the relief
valve to vent any pressure inside the tank before
attempting to service tank.

COMPRESSOR APPLICATION GUIDE:
ABOUT COMPRESSOR DUTY CYCLE:
Duty cycle refers to the amount of time a compressor can
be operated in a given time period at 100 PSI, and a standard ambient
temperature of 72° F. It is commonly expressed in percentage format:
Compressor on time ÷ (on time + off time) = Duty Cycle %.

18 Min. On / 42 Min. Off
20 Min. On / 40 Min. Off
30 Min. On / 30 Min. Off
1 Hour Run Time
NOTE:All compressors, regardless of rated duty cycle, require
sufficient rest time in between cycles to allow for partial or
complete heat dissipation. Heat dissipation rates may vary
depending on ambient temperatures and operating conditions.
ABOUT RATED WORKING PRESSURE:
To ensure trouble free service life of your compressor, always
operate compressor within rated working pressure of the
compressor. Never use a pressure switch with a higher
cut-off pressure than compressor’s rated working pressure.
