I'm building an air compressor out of accumulated parts (read: parts off of three compressors, each one having had a different part fail. . .)

SO, I have a tank, pressure switch, motor, and compressor head. The tank, switch and motor are all fine, and the head is somehow missing parts of the unloader (I think)

It is a Quincy 210 head, and while I found the manual for it online, I am not sure if the unloader diagrams are accurate on my particular version of the model. I am also not sure if the valve on the side is actually the unloader or not, since it doesn't show up looking the same in the manual diagram.

If anyone has any experience with this compressor head, please weigh in. I am trying to find out if I need to get an unloader , check valves, etc or if I can pipe the tubing in with the valves I have and call it a day.
