Safety Valve; Operation And Maintenance; Electrical Connection - Bostitch RC10SQ-M Manual De Instrucciones

33. DO NOT OPERATE IN EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERES,
SUCH AS IN THE PRESENCE OF FLAMMABLE LIQUIDS,
GASES OR DUST. Compressors can create sparks which may
ignite the dust or fumes.
REPLACEMENT PARTS
When servicing use only identical replacement parts. Repairs
should be conducted only by authorized service centre.
EXTENSION CORD
Use only three-wire extension cords that have three-prong
grounding type plugs and three-pole receptacles that accept
the compressor's plug. Replace or repair damaged cord. Make
sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an
extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the
current your product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a
drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating.
Table shows the correct size to use depending on cord length
and name plate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier
gage. The smaller the gage number, the heavier the cord.
When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord
suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use
reduces the risk of electric shock.

m WARNING: Avoid electrical shock hazard. Never use this
compressor with a damaged or frayed electrical cord or extension
cord. Inspect all electrical cords regularly. Never use in near water
or in any environment where electric shock is possible.

SAFETY VALVE

This compressor is equipped with a safety valve that 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.
m WARNING: 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
BOSTITCH Service Centre.
Attachments and Accessories:
For any attachment or accessory you will be using with this
compressor, the maximum allowable recommended pressure
should be clearly marked on the product or should be clearly
noted within the operations manual. Exceeding the pressure
rating of these attachments (including, but not limited to: air
tools, air operated accessories, spray guns, air hose, air hose
connections, tires and other inflatables) could cause them to fly
apart or explode and could result in serious injury.
• Never exceed the maximum allowable pressure
recommended by the manufacturer of any attachment or
accessory you use with this compressor.
DUTY CYCLE:
To ensure long life of your BOSTITCH air compressor, do not
operate on more than the duty cycle indicated on the technical
data plate. If, for example, this air compressor pumps air more
than 50% of one hour, then the compressor's capability is less
than the air delivery required by the application. Always match
the air volume requirements of the attachment or accessory
with the air volume delivery of the compressor.
To avoid overheating of the electric motor, this compressor
is designed for intermittent operation as indicated on the
technical dataplate (for example, S3-25 means 2.5 minutes ON,
7.5 minutes OFF).

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE

NOTE: The information contained in this Instruction Manual is
designed to assist you in the safe operation and maintenance
of the compressor. Some illustrations in this Instruction Manual
may show details or attachments that differ from those on your

INSTALLATION
4
Remove the compressor from its packing, make sure it is in
4-6
perfect condition, checking if it was damaged during transport,
-
and carry out the following operations:

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying,
pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away
from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.
Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of
electric shock.
Single-phase compressors are supplied with an electrical
cable and a two-pole & earth plug. The compressor must be
connected to a grounded power socket.
IMPORTANT: Never use the ground socket instead of the
neutral wire. The ground connection must be made to meet
safety standards (EN 60204). The plug of the power cable must
not be used as a switch, but must be fitted in a power socket
controlled by a suitable differential switch (thermal breaker).
m DANGER: RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK. IMPROPER
GROUNDING CAN RESULT IN ELECTRICAL SHOCK.
Do not modify the plug provided. If it does not fit the available
outlet, a correct outlet should be installed by a qualified
electrician.
Repairs to the cord set or plug MUST be made by a qualified
electrician.
