4. About the thermal protector

This item is not necessary if your compressor is not

equipped with the thermal protector reset switch

shown in Fig. 6.

The thermal protector operates to stop the motor

when a problem such as a motor overload, etc.,

occurs. If the motor should stop during operation,

proceed as follows.

(1) Turn the pressure switch knob to the OFF position

(Fig. 1) and disconnect the plug from the

receptacle.

(2) If the extension cord does not conform to the

specifications given on page 6, replace with an

extension cord such as that shown on page 6. If

the capacity of the power supply is insufficient,

increase the power supply capacity to remove the

cause of a flow of excessive current (over-current).

(3) Wait approximately 5 minutes, then press the

reset switch of the thermal protector (Fig. 6).

(4) Start up. If the motor still stops during operation,

please contact the service center.
