6.8 Cleaning the intake filter (ref. 1)
The intake filter prevents dust and dirt being drawn in.
G
It is essential to clean this filter after at least every 100
B
hours in service. A clogged intake filter will decrease the
compressor's performance dramatically. Undo the two
Allen screws. You can then remove the filter from the two
halves of the plastic housing, tap it to remove the dirt, blast
it down with low-pressure compressed air (approx. 3 bar)
and re-insert it (Figures 17-18).
6.9 Storage
Warning!
Pull the mains plug out of the socket and ventilate the
appliance and all connected pneumatic tools. 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.
Warning!
Store the compressor only in a dry location which is
not accessible to unauthorized persons. Always store
upright, never tilted!
8. POSSIBLE FAULTS AND RELATED PERMITTED REMEDIES
Request the assistance of a qualified electrician for operations on electric components (cables, motor, pressure switch,
electric panel, etc).
Fault
Air leak from the valve of the
pressure switch.
Reduction of efficiency, frequent
start-up. Low pressure values.
7. DISPOSAL AND RECYCLING
waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE).
The symbol carrying a crossed-out refuse container
depicted on any equipment or the relative packaging
means that, at the end of its useful life, said product must
be disposed of separately from other waste.
The user must therefore take said equipment to the
centres specialising in differentiated refuse collection of
electric and electronic equipment or alternatively return
it to the reseller when purchasing a new similar piece of
equipment.
Thanks to differentiated refuse collection, discarded
equipment can be sent to be recycled, treated and disposed
of in an environmentally-friendly manner; this helps
avoiding possible negative effects on the environment
and on health and promotes the re-employment and/or
recycling of the equipment's materials.
Any unauthorised disposal of the product by the user will
result in the application of the fines provided for by the
regulations in force.
Cause
Check valve does not perform its
function correctly due to wear or
dirt on the seal.
Condensate drainage cock open.
Rilsan hose not inserted correctly
in pressure switch.
Excessively high consumption.
Leaks from joints and/or pipes.
Clogging of the suction filter.
Slipping of the belt.

Pursuant to Directive 2012/19/EU on
Remedy
Unscrew the hex-shaped head of
the check valve, clean the housing
and the special rubber disk
(replace if worn). Re-assembler
and tighten carefully (fig. 21-22).
Close the condensate drainage
cock.
Insert the Rilsan hose correctly
inside the pressure switch.
Decrease the demand of
compressed air.
Change gaskets.
Clean/replace the suction filter
(fig. 17-18).
Check belt tension (fig. 15).
