The compressor stops when it reaches the maximum service pressure and then automatically
restarts when the internal pressure of the chamber falls.
After having connected the compressor to the supply line, charge it to the maximum pressure and
check exactly how the machine works.
Please note: The front end, the cylinder and the discharge tube unit can reach a high temperature.
Take care when working close to these parts and do not touch them so as to avoid possible burn-
ing.
1. With the release tap completely open, connect the power switch.
2. Ensure that the engine operates and that the air is able to escape from the release tap.
3. Close the release tap and ensure that no air is leaking.
4. Turn the pressure reducing valve adjustment levers (2 places) fully to the right to ensure for both
of them that the value of the pressure indicators increases.
5. Ensure that the compression stops automatically after approx. 3 to 6 minutes. (Apart from if the
chamber is connected because the operating time is longer at the time the pressure falls) (see
page 18).
6. After having interrupted this operation, wait approx. 5 minutes to check whether there is an abnor-
mal noise, an air leak or whether the machine restarts.
7. Open the release tap slightly to release the compressed air. Ensure that once the pressure has
fallen, the machine is restarted.
8. Shut the release tap. Disconnect the power supply during the compression to ensure that the
machine's operation is stopped normally.
9. Turn the pressure reducing valve adjustment levers (2 places) to the left to ensure for both of
them that the value of the pressure indicators falls. (You will hear air leaking – this is normal and is
not a problem).
10. Open the release tap to release all the compressed air and to drain the inside of the air cham-
ber. If any abnormality is found during the inspection or verification before use, please contact the
ALSAFIX After-Sales Service.
5) OPERATING PROCESS
1. Close the release tap and connect the power switch.
2. Once the pressure has increased and operation is interrupted, turn the reducing valve adjustment
lever to adjust to the correct service pressure of the automatic blocker or the pneumatic tool. To
adjust the pressure, turn the reducing valve adjustment lever to the left in order to reduce the pres-
sure to 2 bars below the suitable value. Then turn the handle to the right to adjust the pressure by
increasing it gradually.
* When the pressure is regulated, increase it from a value below the suitable value. If the adjust-
ment is made by reducing from a value that is higher than the suitable pressure, there will be an
error between the indication on the pressure indicator and the actual service pressure (characteris-
tic of the reducing valve).
