agencies for all service and repairs.
- Do not use this product in an area where it can fall or be pulled into water or other liquid.
- Do not reach for this product if it has fallen into liquid.
- Use this compressor with 12-volt (P/N: 00097, and 00098) or 24-volt (P/N: 02497)
DC systems only.
- This product should never be left unattended during use.
WARNING - To prevent injury:
- Never allow children to operate this compressor. Close supervision is necessary when this

- Do not operate this product where oxygen is being administered.
- Do not pump anything other than atmospheric air.
- Never use this product while sleepy or drowsy.
- Do not use any tools or attachments without first determining maximum air pressure for that
tool or attachment.
- Never point any air nozzle or air sprayer toward another person or any part of the body.
- Wear safety glasses or goggles when operating this product.
- Use only in well ventilated areas.
INSTALLATION
Please read and follow the installation instructions carefully to avoid injury or damage to the compressor and your vehicle. Each of our air compressors and parts have been carefully produced and packaged. Before you begin installation, please familiarize yourself with Installation Parts List
(Fig. 1) of this manual.
Guidelines for Selecting Mounting Location:
The selection of proper mounting location for your air compressor will help ensure a long and trouble free compressor service life. Please pay close attention to the following guidelines:
1. Select a FLAT, UPRIGHT AND SECURE location where the compressor can be mounted.
2. To maximize air compressor performance, locate compressor as CLOSE TO THE BATTERY
as possible so that length of positive lead wire required is at a minimum.
3. Choose mounting location that is as cool as possible and AWAY FROM HEAT SOURCES.
The cooler the ambient temperature the less chance the compressor will overheat.
4. This compressor is moisture & splash resistant, but NOT WATER PROOF. Do not mount
compressor in locations where the unit is likely to come in contact with water.
5. If it is necessary to mount the air compressor further away from the battery, such as inside
your vehicle or in the bed of your pickup, use a minimum 12 AWG positive lead wire for
remote installation. (See wire gauge reference chart)
6. Do not mount compressor near areas where flammable liquids are stored.

MOUNTING AND WIRING
97C - 98C Air Compressor Kit
1. Disconnect ground cable from vehicle’s battery.
2. Temporarily position the air compressor in the location where it will be mounted.
3. Route ground wire to the negative post of the battery or to an appropriate grounding point
and cut ground wire to length as needed.
4. Mount air compressor with the four sets of 13/64” (5 mm) bolts, nuts, washers, and locking
washers provided. Use of thread sealant recommended.
5. IMPORTANT: Please note, your compressor may have a check valve. DO NOT remove
check valve from the unit.
6. Connect compressor’s positive lead wire to one of the leads of your pressure switch.
7. Make sure that your compressor setup is properly fused. For appropriate fuse size,
refer to amp draw of compressor in the specifications section of this manual.
Round up when choosing a fuse.
8. Always locate fuse as close as possible to power source.
9. Before connecting to power source, re-check to make sure that all connections
are properly connected.
10. Connect and test compressor system by running the compressor for a short time to build up
pressure in your air tank.
11. Once air pressure reaches preset cut out pressure of your pressure switch, the compressor
will shut off. Inspect all air line connections for leaks with soap and water solution.
If a leak is detected, the air line may not be cut squarely or pushed all the way in.
Tighten connections if needed.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. IMPORTANT: Always operate the compressor at or below the MAXIMUM PRESSURE RATING of
the compressor. Please refer to Application & Specifications Sections of this manual for details.
2. Always observe the MAXIMUM DUTY CYCLE of the air compressor. Refer to Compressor
Applications and Specifications Sections of this manual for details. Operation exceeding
maximum pressure ratings and/or duty cycle will result in damage to the air compressor.
3. To prevent discharge of your vehicle’s battery, and enhance performance, ALWAYS keep the
vehicle’s engine running while using the compressor.
MAINTENANCE & REPAIRS
1. Periodically check all electrical and fitting connections. Clean and tighten as needed.
2. Periodically check all mounting screws. Tighten as needed.
3. Regularly clean dust and dirt from compressor cooling fins and motor housing.
4. Your air compressor is equipped with permanently lubricated, maintenance-free motor.
Never try to lubricate compressor.
5. All repairs should be performed by Manufacturer or Manufacturer’s Authorized Service
Agencies only.
CAUTION:
Never touch the air compressor or fittings connected to the air compressor with bare hands during or immediately after use. The compressor will become very hot during and after use. If necessary, wear heat resistant gloves.
PLEASE NOTE:
Use thread sealant for proper installation. Teflon tape is not recommended.
Properly sealed, recommended torque for 1/8” NPT fittings is 10 to 11 ft. lbs.

ABOUT COMPRESSOR DUTY CYCLE:
Duty cycle refers to the amount of time a compressor can be operated in a given time period at 100
PSI, and a standard ambient temperature of 72° F. It is commonly expressed in percentage format:
Compressor on time ÷ (on time + off time) = Duty Cycle %.

NOTE: All compressors, regardless of rated duty cycle, require sufficient rest time in between cycles to allow for partial or complete heat dissipation. Heat dissipation rates may vary depending on ambient temperatures and operating conditions.
ABOUT RATED WORKING PRESSURE:
To ensure trouble free service life of your compressor, always operate compressor within rated working pressure of the compressor. Never use a pressure switch with a higher cut-off pressure than compressor’s rated working pressure.
