Setting up your Nomad Compressor 1) Attach the hose and output filter to the compressor via the female quick disconnect fitting. The end with the filter should be closest to the compressor (see image for proper configuration). 1 2) Select the appropriate input voltage on the power converter. The power converter is capable of running on 110V or 220V input. Before adjusting, make sure the converter is not connected to an active electrical outlet. 2 3) Locate the adjustment window on the power converter.
Operation Instruction: 110V or 220V outlet 1) Plug the power cord into the power converter. DO NOT plug the three prong connector into an active wall outlet yet. 2) Connect the power converter to the compressor via the plug on the right hand side of the unit. 1 3) Plug the 110V three prong connector into your wall outlet. (fig 3.1) Once plugged in, the power converter and compressor fans will begin to run, the LOAD gauge will turn on.(fig 3.
Operation Instruction: 110V or 220V outlet 9) Press the ON/OFF button down once to start filling. NOTE: You can stop the fill process at any time by pressing the ON/OFF button down. If you do stop the fill for any reason, simply depress the ON/OFF button again to restart. 9 10) Once the pre-set fill pressure is reached, the compressor will stop. NOTE: The cooling fans will continue to run. 11) Release/Bleed the pressure in the system by turning the pressure release/bleed screw counter-clockwise.

If you do stop the fill for any reason, simply depress the ON/OFF button again to resume filling. 9) Once the pre-set fill pressure is reached, the compressor will stop. NOTE: The cooling fans will continue to run. 10) Release/Bleed the pressure in the system by turning the pressure release/bleed screw counter-clockwise.
Lubricating your Nomad Compressor Locate the lubrication hole on the left hand side of the unit. Using the included oil applicator bottle, apply 2-3 drops of silicone oil every 5 fills or 1.5 hours of use (whichever comes first). The “LOAD” gauge on the top of the Nomad can also be used to determine oil application intervals. If the LOAD gauge reaches 28 during operation, it is necessary to apply silicone oil. The Nomad will automatically shut off if the LOAD gauge exceeds 29.
Purging the Lubrication System Every 20 fills it is important to purge the Nomad of excess silicone oil and moisture. Once you have completed the 20th fill with your Nomad, before opening the Pressure Release Valve, locate the Moisture Release Valve on the underside of the unit. Turn the Moisture Release Valve counter-clockwise to purge the system. (fig 1) ! IMPORTANT 1 AIR AND / OR LIQUID MAY BE RELEASED AT HIGH VELOCITY.
Troubleshooting Issue - Compressor will not start - Resolution - Make sure power converter is plugged into a functional electrical outlet and make sure power converter is properly plugged into the compressor. If using a 12V battery, make sure the jumper cables are properly connected as detailed in the instructions. Issue - Compressor is not building pressure - Resolution - Make sure the moisture release valve and the pressure release valve are closed. They should be hand tightened.
