VS units which is to be washed with solvent and re-lubricated with
"Kluber Barrierta L 55/2" grease every 1500 hours of operation
(white grease). The grease must completely fill the spaces between
the rollers; excess lubricant will be expelled during the initial hours of
operation.
CLEANING THE FILTER
It is advisable to dismantle the suction filter every 50 hours of use
and to clean the filtering element by blowing it with compressed air,
or replace it if the element pointed out by the arrow is clogged.
HOW
TO
PROCEED
WHEN
ENCOUNTERED
Loss of air from the valve underneath the pressure switch (only
model with tank)
This inconvenience is due to the imperfect seal of the non-return
valve; proceed as follows:
- Release all the pressure from the tank.
- Remove the panelling by unscrewing the four securing screws and
lift it.
- Unscrew the hexagonal head of the valve (A)(fig.15).
- Carefully clean the small rubber disk (B) and also its seat (fig.15).
- Re-fit everything accurately.
Loss of air
This may be due to the poor seal of one of the fittings. Check all the
fittings by wetting them with soapy water.
The compressor runs but fails to load (fig.16)
- This may be due to a breakage of the valves (C1-C2), or a gasket
(B1-B2). Replace the damaged component (fig.16).
The compressor fails to start
If the compressor has difficulty in starting, make sure that:
- the mains voltage corresponds to that indicated on the data
nameplate (fig. 7)
- electrical extension cables with unsuitable cross-section or length
are not used.
- the room in which the compressor is running is not too cold (below
0°C)
- the electric line is efficient (plug connected correctly, magneto
thermal switch, fuses not blown)
- if the trip switch has tripped (vs-gms series fig. 20, silent series fig.
19).
The compressor fails to stop (only with tank)
if the compressor fails to stop when the maximum pressure is
reached, the tank safety valve will trip. Contact the nearest
authorised service centre for the repairs.
WARNING
- Do not unscrew any connections with the tank when under
pressure for any reason whatsoever. Always make sure that the tank
is de-pressurised beforehand.
- Do not drill, weld or intentionally deform the compressed air tank.
- Do not carry out any operations on the compressor before it has
been unplugged from the power socket.
- The room temperature for its correct efficiency is: 0°C +25°C (MAX
45°C).
- Do not direct jets of water or flammable liquids over the
compressor.
- Do not place flammable objects near the compressor.
- When stopped temporarily during its use, turn the pressure switch
or the ON/OFF switch to position «0» (OFF) (turned-off).
- Never direct the jet of air towards people or animals (fig. 17).
- Do not transport the compressor when the tank is pressurised.
- Be aware that some components of the compressor such as the
head and delivery hoses may reach high temperatures, therefore do
not touch the to avoid getting burned (fig. 12).
- Transport the compressor by lifting or pulling it with the appropriate
grips or handles (fig. 5).
- Children and animals must be kept away from the area in which the
machine is running.
If the compressor is used for painting:
a) Do not work in closed areas or near free flames
b) Make sure that the area in which you are working has a good
change of air
c) Protect nose and mouth using an appropriate mask (fig. 18).
- Do not use the compressor if the electric cable or the plug is
damaged.
- Contact the nearest authorised service centre for the replacement
with an original component.
TRIVIAL
ANOMALIES
ARE
- If it is placed on a shelf or a surface that is raised off the ground, it
must be secured appropriately to prevent it from tipping off when
running.
- Do not insert objects or your hands inside the safety grating to
avoid physical damage and also damage to the compressor.
- Do not use the compressor to threaten people or animals to avoid
serious injuries.
- Always unplug the compressor from the power socket when you
have finished using it.
