Do Not Abuse the Power Cord
Never yank or pull on the power cord to disconnect it from the mains supply socket. Never carry
or drag your compressor by its power cord. Keep the power cord away from heat, oil, solvents
and sharp edges. If the power cord becomes damaged have it replaced by an authorized service
facility.
Check Damaged Parts
Before using the compressor it should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate
properly and perform its intended function. Check for the correct alignment of moving parts
ensuring they do not bind. Check for broken or missing parts and have them replaced or
repaired at an authorized service centre. Check any other condition that may affect the
operation of the compressor. A guard or any other part of the compressor that is damaged
should be properly repaired or replaced by an authorized service centre.
Disconnect Compressor
Ensure that the compressor is disconnected from the mains supply and the tank is empty when
not in use, before servicing, lubricating or making adjustments to air lines, and when changing
accessories such as blades, bits, nails and cutters on air tools.
Avoid Unintentional Starting
Ensure that the switch is in the OFF position before plugging the compressor into the
mains supply
Turning the compressor ON and OFF
Use the red knob on top of the pressure switch to turn the unit on and off. Pull the knob up to
turn the compressor on and push the knob in to turn it off. Turning the unit on and off from the
mains supply only will result in damage to the motor and void warranty as the pressure switch
has an additional function to purge the air trapped in the delivery pipe when the motor is turned
off. This minimises the load on the motor when it is next started.
