Owners manual

CAUTION: Never touch the air compressor or fittings connected to the air compressor
with bare hands during or immediately after use. Leader hose and fittings will become
very HOT during and after use.
Compressor Installation Tips
1. Always use the remote intake filter option when possible. This will extend the service
life of your compressor.
2. If noise reduction from vibration is desired, using the remote mount option for the
inlet filter can reduce operation noise by up to 25%.
3. Always mount the compressor at a point higher than the inlet port of the tank. This
will keep moisture from being able to seep back to the tank.
4. When mounting the compressor, use a paint pen on the rubber isolators and cover the
side to go against the chassis or mounting location. Then, simply stamp the
compressor against the chassis to make an imprint of exactly where to drill the
mounting holes for the compressor.
Pressure Switch Installation
Your system comes complete with a pressure switch that will turn on the compressor at
100 PSI, and off at 130 PSI. The pressure switch has a 1/8” NPT inlet at the bottom that
will need to be threaded into the supplied T-fitting (using thread sealant) to allow it to be
plumbed directly to your air tank. (Use contents of Package # 1 for this installation step)
Pressure Switch Installation Tips
1. Never install a pressure switch in direct line from the inlet port coming from the
compressor. Tank pressure can be misread by the pressure switch. Instead, mount the
pressure switch on the tank where it receives readings from deflected air in the tank.
2. Never use a pressure switch that is rated beyond your compressor’s rated Maximum
Working Pressure (150 PSI).
3. For best performance and maximum life, use the Kleinn 6850 installation kit to
connect your pressure switch to your power source.
T
esting Your System
Your system installation is now complete. Run the compressor to build pressure in the air
tank. When air pressure reaches the pressure switch cut out pressure, the compressor will
shut off. Inspect all air line connections for leaks by spraying a soap and water solution
If leaks are detected, re-attach hoses or apply Teflon thread tape as needed. Periodically
check your system’s fitting in this manner should your compressor turn on more often
than normal without frequent air use.
