Draining The Tank; Checking The Safety Valve - Ryobi YN301PL Manual Del Operador

 Allow unit to reach max pressure as indicated on the tank
pressure gauge.
 Set regulator to desired pressure by rotating pressure
regulator knob. The regulator pressure will appear on the
gauge marked as outlet.
To disconnect a coiled air hose:
 Confirm that the outlet pressure is at zero (0) psi.
 When disconnecting a hose from 1/4-in. quick coupler,
always firmly hold release end of hose.
 Pull back on the release sleeve on the 1/4-in. quick
coupler.
 With a firm grip, pull out the quick-connect air fitting that
is attached to the quick coupler.
ATTACHiNG OR diSCONNECTiNG
PNEUMATiC TOOLS FROM THE
AiR COMPRESSOR
NOTE: Each tool is different. Refer to manufacturer's
instruction before operating a tool in the seated
position.
USiNG THE AiR COMPRESSOR
See Figure 11, page 18.
WARNiNG:
Risk of bursting. Do not adjust regulator to result in
output pressure greater than marked maximum pressure
of attachment and/or the item being inflated. Never use at
pressure greater than 135 psi. Failure to heed this warning
could result in possible serious personal injury.
WARNiNG:
Air powered tools may require more air consumption
than this air compressor is capable of providing. Check
the tool manual to avoid damage to the tool or risk of
personal injury.
 Follow the instructions in "Connecting Hoses to the
Air Compressor."
 Control the amount of air flow with the pressure regulator
knob. Turning the knob fully counterclockwise will
completely stop the flow of air, as shown in the start up
section of the quick reference label.
NOTE: Always use the minimum amount of pressure
necessary for your application. Using a higher pressure
than needed will drain air from the tank more rapidly and
cause the unit to cycle on more frequently.
 When finished, always drain the tank and unplug the
unit. Never leave the unit plugged in and/or running
unattended.
OPERATiON

dRAiNiNG THE TANK

See Figure 12 - 13, page 18.
To help prevent tank corrosion and keep moisture out of the
air used, the air tank of the compressor should be drained
daily.
To drain:
 Turn the air compressor off, as shown in the shut down
section of the quick reference label.
 Pull the ring on the safety valve to release until pressure
gauge reads less than 20 psi, as shown in the shut down
section of the quick reference label.
 Release the ring.
 Rotate drain valves counterclockwise to open, as shown
in the shut down section of the quick reference label.
 Tilt tank to drain moisture from tank into a suitable
container.
NOTE: Condensate is a polluting material and should
be disposed of in compliance with local regulations.
 If drain valve is clogged, release all air pressure, remove
and clean valve, then reinstall.
WARNiNG:
Unplug the air compressor and release all air from the
tank before servicing. Failure to depressurize tank before
attempting to remove valve can cause serious personal
injury.
 Rotate drain valve clockwise until tightly closed.

CHECKiNG THE SAFETY VALVE

See Figure 12, page 18.
dANGER:
Do not attempt to tamper with the safety valve. Anything
loosened from this device could fly up and hit you. Failure
to heed this warning could result in death or serious
personal injury.
The safety valve will automatically release air if the air tank
pressure exceeds the preset maximum. The valve should
be checked before each day of use by pulling the ring by
hand.
 Turn the air compressor on and allow the tank to fill. The
compressor will shut off when the pressure reaches the
preset maximum.
 Turn the air compressor off.
 Pull the ring on the safety valve to release air for three to
five seconds to allow pressurized air to escape. Release
the ring. The safety release valve must reset and hold
pressure before all compressed air is exhausted from
the tank/pressure vessel.
