Instructions
When you first install the train horn system, turn on the air pump and allow it to fill the tank until the pressure switch turns the pump off. Do not let it exceed 125psi. Now you can test your horn! Remember, the air compressor is not designed for continues usage. The air pump needs time to cool down between the horn blasts. If you plan on using the horn every couple of minutes, you need to seriously consider purchasing a very large air tank.
Operation
Power from the toggle switch to your air pump should only
be turned on after you have honked the horn a couple of
times. The compressor does have an automatic shut off pressure
switch, but should that switch fail or a leak arise, the
pump will run continously and will drain your battery or
cause premature failure of your pump.
So remember to turn the toggle switch on, let the pump run
until the pressure switch cycles off your pump, and then
turn off the toggle switch. You will be able to tell when
the air pressure is low and you need to turn on the compressor
again.
