2. Placering
Place the compressor on a firm, level surface in a clean, well-ventilated area. Ensure there is adequate space around the unit for air circulation and maintenance access. Avoid placing it near heat sources or in direct sunlight.
3. Strømtilslutning
Connect the compressor to a grounded 120 V electrical outlet. Ensure the circuit can handle the compressor's power requirements (2.5 HP maximum power).
4. Oil Check (for oil-lubricated models)
This is an oil-lubricated compressor. Before first use, and periodically thereafter, check the oil level. Ensure the oil level is between the minimum and maximum marks on the dipstick or sight glass. Add appropriate compressor oil if necessary.
5. Handle and Wheel Assembly (if not pre-assembled)
If the handle and wheels are not pre-assembled, attach them according to the included hardware. The handle is designed for easy transport.

Betjeningsvejledning
1. Første opstart
- Sørg for, at afløbsventilen i bunden af tanken er lukket.
- Plug the compressor into a suitable electrical outlet.
- Turn the power switch to the "ON" position. The compressor will begin to build pressure.
- Allow the compressor to reach its maximum pressure and shut off automatically. This indicates the pressure switch is functioning correctly.
2. Justering af udgangstryk
The compressor features a pressure regulator to control the air pressure delivered to your tools.
- Attach your air hose and tool to one of the quick-connect valves.
- Turn the pressure regulator knob (usually located near the output gauges) clockwise to increase pressure and counter-clockwise to decrease pressure.
- Monitor the output pressure gauge to set the desired pressure for your application.

3. Overcurrent Protector
Your compressor is equipped with an overcurrent protector to prevent motor damage in case of overload. If the compressor stops unexpectedly, check the overcurrent protector button. If it has popped out, allow the motor to cool down for a few minutes, then press the button to reset it.
