● Once the upper calibration value has been reached (set by the
manufacturer during the test phase) the compressor stops.
Using air, the compressor restarts automatically when the lower
calibration value is reached (2 bar between upper and lower value).
● The compressor continues to operate with this cycle automatically
until acting on the I/O switch.
● If the compressor shall be used again, wait at least 10 seconds from
the moment when it switches off before restarting it.
● Check that the air consumption and the maximum operating
pressure of the pneumatic tool to be used are compatible with
the pressure set on the pressure regulator (not included) and
with the amount of air delivered by the compressor.
● At the end of the work:
– rewind the hose completely, putting it in its housing;
– stop the compressor by acting on the I/O switch, putting it to
the switched off position "O" (OFF).
– disconnect the electrical plug;
– empty the tank.
8. 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!
Warning!
Always depressurize the tank before carrying out any cleaning
and maintenance work.
8.1 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.
● 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 any pneumatic tools from the compressor before
cleaning. Do not clean the compressor with water, solvents or the like.
● Keep the reel hose clean to allow proper sliding.
8.2 Condensation water (Fig. 11)
The condensation water must be drained off each day by opening the
drain valve (ref. 3) (on the bottom of the pressure vessel).
Warning!
Dispose of the condensation water in an environmentally compatible manner
at the appropriate collection point.
8.3 Safety valve (ref. 10)
The safety valve has been set for the highest permitted pressure of
the pressure vessel.
FUNCTION
Cleaning of intake filter and/or
substitution of filtering element
Draining tank condensate
It is prohibited to adjust the safety valve. Actuate the safety valve from
time to time to ensure that it works when required. Turn the nut until
you can hear the compressed air being released (Fig. 12). Then screw
it back on.
Always keep the safety valve and the surrounding area clean and free
of obstructions.
Always keep the safety valve and the surrounding area clean and free
of obstructions.
8.4 Cleaning the intake filter (ref. 1)
The intake filter prevents dust and dirt being drawn in. It is essential
to clean this filter after at least every 100 hours in service. A clogged
intake filter will decrease the compressor's performance dramatically.
The body of the intake filter is irremovable, it MUST NEVER be
removed. To clean or replace the filtering element, simply remove the
cover. To remove the cover, unscrew counterclockwise.
Clean the filtering element by tapping it to remove the dirt, blast it
down with low-pressure compressed air (approx. 3 bar) and re-insert
it.
8.5 Storage
Disconnect the plug from the socket, vent the appliance and
tools connected to it and empty the condensate.
Switch off the compressor and make sure that it is secured in
such a way that it cannot be started up again by any unauthorized
person.
Keep the compressor only in dry environment and not accessible
to unauthorized persons.
Protect it with a cloth to prevent dust from settling on the internal
mechanisms.
If the compressor remains inactive for long periods, check that it
is working correctly before starting to use it again.
