Introduction

When removing the on/off switch of the compressor, you will first need to remove the shroud. The trick to removing the on/off switch is on the underside of the shroud. This is discussed in the guide.

    • Remove the plastic shroud from the compressor.

    • Do not pull the shroud too far from the compressor. You could damage the on/off switch wiring.

  3. 1NSrXa3DYSZHDiDp

    • Gently pull the wire attached from the pressure switch to the on/off switch.

    • It should come off the pressure switch with ease.

    • Make sure you are pulling the correct wire. The pressure switch could be in a different configuration on your compressor than in the picture.

    • Gently pull the wire connected from the on/off switch to the motor of the compressor.

    • It should be the only wire keeping the shroud from being lifted from the compressor.

    • Twist the On/Off switch from the underside of the shroud.

    • Twist 90 degrees in any direction or until the on/off switch prongs are in a vertical position.

    • When the switch has reached the correct position, you will feel it "click" into place.

  6. emR3hu6EILNw1iDY

    • Push the on/off switch from the underside of the shroud until it comes loose.

    • If the switch is not in the correct position highlighted in the previous step, it will not be easily removed and could damage the shroud.

Conclusion

To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.
