turn it on and off.
16. HANDLE COMPRESSOR CORRECTLY
The compressors have been designed and manufactured exclusively to produce compressed air. Every other use, different
and not foreseen by all indicated, relieves the manufacturer of possible consequent risks. In any event the use of the
compressor different to that agreed in the purchase order relieves the manufacturer from all liabilities with regard to possible
material damage and personal injury. The electrical system is not designed for the use in environments subject to explosion or
for flammable products. Never direct the jet of air towards people or animals. never use the compressed air produced by
lubricated compressors for respiratory purposes or in production processes where the air is in direct contact with foodstuffs
unless it has been first filtered and conditioned for such purpose.
17. KEEP ALL SCREWS, BOLTS AND COVERS TIGHTLY IN PLACE
Keep all screws, bolts, and plates tightly mounted.
Check their condtions periodically.
18. KEEP MOTOR AIR VENT CLEAN
The motor air vent must be kept clean so that air can freely flow at all times. Check for dust build-up frequently.
19. OPERATE COMPRESSOR AT THE RATED VOLTAGE
Keep these clean: the ventilation louvers of the motor and the pumping element. Clean these louvers regularly if the workplace
is very dirty.
20. NEVER USE A COMPRESSOR WHICH IS DEFECTIVE OR OPERATING ABNORMALLY
Run the compressor at the voltage specified on the electrical rating plate, to avoid damaging the motor and electrical system.
21. DO NOT WIPE PLASTIC PARTS WITH SOLVENT
Solvents such as gasoline, thinner, benzine, carbon tetrachloride, and alcohol may damage and crack plastic parts. Do not
wipe them with such solvents. Wipe plastic parts with a soft cloth lightly dampened with soapy water and dry thoroughly.
22. USE ONLY GENUINE REPLACEMENT PARTS
Replacement parts not original may void your warranty and can lead to malfunction and resulting injuries. Genuine parts are
available from your dealer.
24. DO NOT MODIFY THE COMPRESSOR
Do not modify the compressor. Always contact the authorized service center any repairs. Unauthorized modification may not
only impair the compressor performance but may also result in accident or injury to repair personnel who do not have the
required knowledge and technical expertise to perform the repair operations correctly.
25. DO NOT TOUCH THE HOT PARTS OF THE COMPRESSOR
To avoid burns, do not touch pipes, motor and all hot parts.
26. DO NOT DIRECT AIR STREAM AT BODY
Risk of injury, do not direct air stream at persons or animals.
27. DRAIN TANK
Drain tank daily or after 4 hours of use.
Open drain fitting and tilt compressor to empty accumulated water.
28
DO NOT STOP COMPRESSOR BY PULLING OUT THE PLUG Use the EMERGENCY/STOP push-button on the control
panel (fig.4).
29
USE ONLY RECOMMENDED AIR HANDLING PARTS ACCEPTABLE FOR PRESSURE NOT LESS THAN 125 PSI (8.6
BAR)
Risk of bursting. Use only recommended air handling parts acceptable for pressures not less than 125 psi (8.6 bar).
REPLACEMENT PARTS
When servicing use only identical replacement parts. Repairs should be conducted only by authorized service center.
GENERAL CHECK
Remove the compressor from the package and check that there are no evident signs of damage and immediately notify the carrier
should this be the case. Check that the compressor is equipped with the instructions booklet and that the,guarantee is filled out with
the delivery date and the resaler's stamp.
HANDLING
Remove the compressor by lifting it with a forklift with forks at least 700 mm long (see fig. 1). Remove thecompressor from the
pallet on which it is secured for transport by unfastening the foot screws. It is not necessary to provide for special foundations or
bases.The machine may be'simply placed on a leve1 floor.
INSTALLATION
The room to install the compressor should be large, well ventilated and protected from dust and intense cold. The compressor takes
in a large quantity of air necessary for its internal ventilation. Over time a dusty environment will cause damage and difficulties in
operation. Once on the inside, part of the dust is taken in by the air filter causing rapid clogging, and part will be deposited over all
the components or be thrown against the cooler, thereby preventing heat exchange. It is therefore evident that the cleanliness of
the installation location is extremely important for the proper operation of the machine, as this will avoid excessive operation and
maintenance costs. To facilitate maintenance operations and create favorable air circulation, the compressor must have a good
amount of free space surrounding it. Do not obstruct frontal"aspiration openings or rear discharge openings of the sound-deadening
cabin in order to allow interior cooling. Leave at least 1 mt. between the rear of the compressor and the,wall. The room should be
equipped with openings towards the outside placed in proximity of the floor and the ceiling, which will allow the natura1 circulation
of air. If this is not possible, fans or extractors must be installed which guarantee an air flow of 20% greater than the cooling air flow.
