G. Safety valve: The safety valve is set to avoid over-pressurization
of the air tanks. This valve is factory pre-set and will not function
unless tank pressure reaches this pressure. Do not attempt to
adjust or eliminate this safety device.
Any adjustments to this valve could cause serious injury. If
this device requires service or maintenance, see an Authorized
Service Center.
H. Handle for lifting/moving.
I. Wheel.
J. Rubber foot.
3. SCOPE OF USE
The compressor is designed for generating compressed air for tools
operated by compressed air.
Please note that our equipment has not been designed for use
in commercial, trade or industrial applications. Our warranty will
be voided if the machine is used in commercial, trade or industrial
businesses or for equivalent purposes.
The machine is to be used only for its prescribed purpose. Any other
use is deemed to be a case of misuse. The user/operator and not
the manufacturer will be liable for any damage or injuries of any kind
caused as a result of this.
4. ELECTRICAL GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This product should be electrically grounded. In the event of an
electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electrical shock by
providing an escape wire for electrical current. This product is equipped
with a cord having a grounding wire with an appropriate grounding
plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed
and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
4.1 Connection of the mains plug
Important!
The wires in the mains lead fitted to this product are coloured in
accordance with the code shown in fig. 8.
● The 3 pin plug must comply to BS1363/A.
● Fuse must comply to BS1362.
If for any reason the 13 amp plug fitted to this product requires
replacement it must be wired in accordance with the following instruction:
Do not connect the brown (live) or blue (neutral) to the earth pin marked
'E'
on the 3 pin plug.
Connect the Blue wire to the terminal marked Neutral (N). Connect
the Brown wire to the terminal marked Live (L). Connect the Yellow
& Green wire to the terminal marked Earth (E). Ensure that the outer
insulation is gripped by the cord grip and that the wires are not trapped
when replacing the plug cover. The mains lead on this product is fitted
with a 13 amp (BS1363/A) plug. A 13 amp (BS1362) fuse must be
fitted in the plug.
If in doubt consult a qualified electrician
There are no user serviceable parts inside this product except those
referred to in the manual. Always refer servicing to qualified service
personnel. Never remove any part of the casing unless qualified to do
so; this unit contains dangerous voltages.
Warning!
For your protection if this product is to be used outdoors it should not
be exposed to rain or used in damp locations. Do not place the product
on damp surfaces, use a workbench if available. For added protection
use a suitable residual current device (R.C.D.) at the socket outlet.
Note:
If the mains cable requires replacing it must be replaced with
an identical one and fitted by a qualified person.
5. PRE-START PROCEDURES
● Examine the machine for signs of transport damage. Report any
damage immediately to the company which delivered the compressor.
● Verify that the tanks have been drained and are clear of any
moisture or dirt.
● The compressor should be set up near the working consumer.
● Avoid long air lines and long supply lines (extensions).
● Make sure the intake air is dry and dust-free.
● Do not set up the compressor in damp or wet rooms.
● The compressor may only be used in suitable rooms (with good
ventilation and an ambient temperature from +5°C to +40°C). There
must be no dust, acids, vapours, explosive gases or inflammable
gases in the room.
● The compressor is designed to be used in dry rooms. It is
prohibited to use the compressor in areas where work is conducted
with sprayed water.
5.1 Fitting the wheel kit
If provided, the wheel kit must be installed as shown in figure 2.
5.2 Fitting the supporting feet
If provided, the rubber feet must be fitted as shown in figure 2.
5.3 Assembling the quick coupler
Tighten the quick coupler for regulated pressure to the coupling on the
outlet as shown in figures 3a, 3b and 3c.
6. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
6.1 Start-Up Procedures
1. Verify that the On/Off switch is in the O position.
2. Verify that the tank air pressure is at 0 BAR (and PSI).
3. Attach the air hose to the discharge line.
4. Plug the unit into a properly grounded outlet.
5. Rotate the On/Off switch in I position (fig. 4). The compressor
will automatically cycle on and off to keep the tank pressure
maintained.
6. Adjust the pressure regulator to the proper pressure setting
required for the air tool.
6.2 Shut-Off Procedures
1. Rotate the On/Off switch in the O position (fig. 5).
2. Unplug the power cord and vent all the air in the tank (using a
pneumatic tool, connected to the compressor through the quick
coupling).
7. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Warning!
Pull the power plug before doing any cleaning and maintenance
work on the appliance.
Warning!
Wait until the compressor has completely cooled down! Risk of
burns due to hot surfaces!
Warning!
Always depressurize the tank before carrying out any cleaning
and maintenance work.
7.1 Cleaning
● Keep the safety devices free of dirt and dust as far as possible. Wipe
the equipment with a clean cloth or blow it with compressed air at
low pressure.
● We recommend that you clean the appliance immediately after you
use it.
● Clean the appliance regularly with a damp cloth and some soft soap.
Do not use cleaning agents or solvents; these may be aggressive to
the plastic parts in the appliance. Ensure that no water can get into
the interior of the appliance.
● You must disconnect the hose and any spraying tools from the
compressor before cleaning. Do not clean the compressor with
water, solvents or the like.
7.2 Draining tank
The condensation water must be drained off each day by opening the
drain valve (ref. E) (on the bottom of the pressure vessel) (fig. 6).
1. Verify that the compressor is turned Off.
2. Holding the handle, tilt the compressor toward the drain valve so
that it's set in a lower position.
