Expert Advice
- Duty cycle of 40% i.e. the unit can load compressor air for 4 or fewer minutes continuously out of a 10 minute cycle.
- Drain your compressor tank daily after use to avoid build-up and contamination.
- Do not run your compressor on electrical extension cords as this will cause a voltage drop which will inevitably cause damage to your machine.
