1. PRECAUTIONS
An ACOUSTIC PRESSURE value of 4 m.
corresponds to the ACOUSTIC POWER value
stated on the yellow label located on the
compressor, minus 20 dB.
THINGS TO DO
● The compressor must be used in a suitable
environment (well ventilated with an ambient
temperature of between +5°C and +40°C)
and never in places affected by dust, acids,
vapors, explosive or flammable gases.
● Always maintain a safety distance of at least 4
meters between the compressor and the work
area.
● Any coloring of the belt guards of the compressor
during painting operations indicates that the
distance is too short.
● Insert the plug of the electric cable in a socket of
suitable shape, voltage and frequency complying
with current regulations.
● For three-phase versions have the plug fitted by a
qualified electrician according to local regulations.
The first time you start the compressor, check that
the direction of rotation is correct and matches
that indicated by the arrow on the conveyor (Fig.
10, the air must be conveyed towards the head of
the compressor).
● Use extension cables with a maximum length of 5
meters and of suitable cross-section.
● The use of extension cables of different length
and also of adapters and multiple sockets should
be avoided.
● Always use the switch of the pressure switch to
switch off the compressor.
● Always use the handle to move the compressor.
● When operating, the compressor must be placed
on a stable, horizontal surface to guarantee
correct lubrication.
NOT
THINGS
● Never direct the jet of air towards persons, animals
or your body. (Always wear safety goggles to
protect your eyes against flying objects that may
be lifted by the jet of air).
TO DO
● Never direct the jet of liquids sprayed by tools
connected to the compressor towards the
compressor.
● Never use the appliance with bare feet or wet
hands or feet.
● Never pull the power cable to disconnect the plug
from the socket or to move the compressor.
● Never leave the appliance exposed to adverse
weather conditions.
● Never transport the compressor with the receiver
under pressure.
● Do not weld or machine the receiver. In the case
of faults or rusting, replace the entire receiver.
● Never allow inexpert persons to use the
compressor. Keep children and animals at a
distance from the work area.
● Do not position flammable or nylon/fabric objects
closed to and/or on the compressor.
● Never clean the compressor with flammable liquids
or solvents. Check that you have unplugged the
compressor and clean with a damp cloth only.
● The compressor must be used only for air
compression. Do not use the compressor for any
other type of gas.
● The compressed air produced by the compressor
cannot not be used for pharmaceutical, food
or medical purposes except after particular
treatments and cannot be used to fill the air
bottles of scuba divers.

THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW

● 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). In the case of overheating,
the thermal cutout of the motor trips, automatically
cutting off the power when the temperature is
too high. The motor restarts automatically when
normal temperature conditions are restored.
● To facilitate restart of the compressor, in
addition to the operations indicated, it is
important to return the button of the pressure
switch to the OFF position and then to ON
again (fig. 11-12).
● On certain «V» type versions, the reset button on
