ABOUT REMAINING BATTERY
INDICATOR
You can check the battery's remaining capacity by
pressing the remaining battery indicator switch to light the
indicator lamp. (Fig. 10)
The indicator will shut off approximately 3 seconds after
the remaining battery indicator switch is pressed.
It is best to use the remaining battery indicator as a
guide since there are slight diff erences such as ambient
temperature and the condition of the battery.
When the battery's remaining capacity is low, the motor
may stop even if 1 light on the indicator lamp is lit up. This
is not the trouble but the result of protection function. If this
happens, recharge the battery as soon as possible.
NOTE
○ Remaining battery levels may vary between that shown
on the battery and that of a product with its own battery
level function.
○ Do not give a strong shock to the display panel or break
it. It may lead to a trouble.
APPLICATIONS
Air compressors are utilized in a variety of air system
applications.
Match hoses, connectors, air tools, and accessories to the
capabilities of the air compressor.
You may use this compressor for purposes listed below:
○ Operating air powered tools requiring less than
45.3 ltr/min @ 6.2 bar.
○ Powering pneumatic
cleaning / blowing with pressurized air.
WARNING
○ Do not allow familiarity with compressor and tools to
make you careless. Remember that a careless fraction
of a second is suffi cient to infl ict serious injury.
○ Always wear safety goggles or safety glasses with
side shields when operating compressor. Failure to do
so could result in objects being thrown into your eyes
resulting in possible serious injury.
CAUTION
Do not use in an environment that is dusty or otherwise
contaminated. Using the air compressor in this type of
environment may cause damage to the unit.
CHECKING THE SAFETY VALVE
Before starting the compressor, rotate the safety valve to
make sure that the safety valve operates smoothly. Do
not use compressor if the safety valve is stuck or does not
operate smoothly. Have defective safety valve replaced by
a HiKOKI authorized service center.
WARNING
○ Drain tank to release air pressure before rotate the
safety valve.
○ Risk of bursting.
If the safety valve does not work properly, over-
pressurization may occur, causing tank rupture or an
explosion.

USING THE AIR COMPRESSOR
○ Temperature
Operating temperatures are between 0°C and 40°C.
CAUTION
Never operate in temperatures below 0°C or above
40°C.
WARNING
Always ensure the power switch is in the OFF (O)
position and the regulator pressure gauge reads zero
before changing air tools or disconnecting the hose
from the air outlet. Failure to do so could result in
possible serious personal injury.
○ Ensure the drain valve is closed. (Fig. 11)
○ Ensure the power switch is in the OFF (O) position and
the battery is removed.
○ Ensure the pressure regulator knob is turned fully
counterclockwise. (Fig. 11)
○ If not already installed, attach the hose to the
compressor.
○ Connect the air powered tools to the air hose by
inserting the male quick-connect plug to the quick-
coupler at the end of the hose. (Fig. 12)
○ Install the battery.
○ Turn the power switch to the ON ( I ) position.
○ Adjustment of outlet pressure
Pull the pressure regulator knob to allow the knob to
rotate. Then, adjust the outlet pressure to the required
level by turning the pressure regulator knob clockwise
to increase the outlet pressure and counterclockwise
to decrease it.
tires,
A regulator pressure gauge is provided to show when
the required pressure is reached.
When adjusting the pressure, check and make
sure that a tank pressure gauge for the tank has the
pressure level that is higher than that of the pressure to
be adjusted.
It is also imperative that you make adjustment by slowly
starting up the pressure from the level that is lower than
the pressure to be adjusted.
After adjusting the outlet pressure, push in the pressure
regulator knob to lock the knob and use the tool.
NOTE
Before connecting or disconnecting air tools, turn the
regulator knob counterclockwise to stop the fl ow of air.
○ Following all safety precautions in this manual and the
manufacturer's instructions in the air tool manual, you
may now use your air-powered tool.
○ If using an infl ation accessory with a quick-connect
fi tting, control the amount of air fl ow with the pressure
regulator knob. Turning the knob fully counterclockwise
will completely stop the fl ow of air.
NOTE
Always use the minimum amount of pressure necessary
for your application. Using a higher pressure than
needed will drain air from the tank more rapidly and
cause the unit to cycle on more frequently.
○ When fi nished, always drain the tank and remove the
battery. Never leave the unit plugged in and/or running
unattended.
