WARNING
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.
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 product for the purposes listed below:
• operating some air-powered tools
• operating air accessories such as air nozzles and
inflators
• operates some air powered paint spraying products
TRANSPORTING THE AIR Compressor
To move the air compressor:
Ensure auto/off switch is in the off position (O) Grasp the
handle firmly with one hand.
AUTO/OFF
Turn the power switch to the auto position (I) to power the
compressor on. To turn the air compressor off, turn the power
switch to the off position (O).
NOTE: When the compressor is in the auto position (I), the air
compressor will automatically turn back on when the tank air
pressure drops below the preset pressure limit. It will also
shut off again when the max pressure is reached.
RESETTING THE AIR Compressor
When amperage into the air compressor exceeds the specified
amperage, the air compressor will automatically shut off.
1. Turn the air compressor off.
2. Allow unit to cool and to trigger reset.
NOTE: If the overload protector is actuated, the motor must be
allowed to cool down for 30 minutes.
3. Turn the air compressor on.
WARNING
Never exceed the pressure rating of the tool as
recommended by the manufacturer. When using
this air compressor as an inflation device, always follow
the maximum inflation guidelines stated by the
manufacturer of the item being inflated.
English
WARNING
Always ensure the switch is in the off position (O) and
the regulatory pressure gauge reads zero bar before
changing air tools or disconnecting the hose from
the air outlet. Failure to do so could result in possible
serious personal injury.
CONNECTING/DISCONNECTING HOSES TO THE AIR
COMPRESSOR
When connecting a pneumatic air nailer or other air tool
always follow the manufacturer's recommended start-up
procedure.
When connecting/disconnecting a hose to the air compressor
always do the following.
1. Ensure auto/off switch is in the off position (O)
2. Confirm that the outlet pressure is at zero bar by fully
turning the regulator knob counterclockwise to fully
reduce air pressure at the outlet.
NOTE: Turning the knob clockwise increases air
pressure at the outlet. Turning counterclockwise
reduces air pressure at the outlet.
3. Attach coiled air hose to coupler on the side of the air
compressor.
4.Turn power switch to the auto position (I).
5. Allow unit to reach max pressure as indicated on the
tank pressure gauge.
6. Set regulator to desired pressure by rotating pressure
regulator knob. The regulator pressure will appear on
the gauge marked as outlet.
To disconnect a coiled air hose:
1. Confirm that the outlet pressure is at zero bar.
2. When disconnecting a hose from quick coupler, always
firmly hold release end of hose.
3. Pull back on the release sleeve on the quick coupler.
4. With a firm grip, pull out the quick-connect air fitting
that is attached to the quick coupler.
5. Attaching or disconnecting pneumatic tools from the
air compressor.
NOTE: Each tool is different. Refer to the instructions of
the manufacturer before operating a tool in the seated
position.
WARNING
Risk of bursting. Do not adjust regulator to result in
output pressure greater than marked maximum pressure
of attachment and/or the item being inflated. Never use
at pressure greater than 6.9 bar. Failure to heed this
could result in possible serious personal injury.
WARNING
Air powered tools may require more air consumption
than this air compressor is capable of providing. Check the tool
manual to avoid damage to the tool or risk of personal injury.
1. Connecting hoses to the air compressor.
2. Control the amount of air flow with the pressure
regulator knob. Turning the knob fully counterclockwise
will completely stop the flow 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.
3. When finished, always drain the tank .
DRAINING THE TANK
1. To help prevent tank corrosion and keep moisture out
of the air used, the air tank of the compressor should be
drained daily.
2. Turn the air compressor off.
3. Pull the ring on the safety valve to release until
pressure gauge reads less than 1.4 bar.
4. Release the ring.
5. Rotate drain valves counterclockwise to open.
6. Tilt tank to drain moisture from tank into a suitable
container.
NOTE: Condensate is a polluting material and should
be disposed of in compliance with local regulations.
7. If drain valve is clogged, release all air pressure,
remove and clean valve, then reinstall.
WARNING
Shutdown the air compressor and release all air from the
tank before servicing. Failure to depressurize tank before
attempting to remove valve can cause serious personal injury.
8. Rotate drain valve clockwise until tightly closed.
CHECKING THE SAFETY VALVE
English
DANGER
Do not attempt to tamper with the safety valve. Anything
loosened from this device could fly up and hit you.
Failure to heed this could result in death or serious
personal injury.
The safety valve will automatically release air if the air
tank pressure exceeds the preset maximum. The valve
should be checked before each day of use by pulling the
ring by hand.
1. Turn the air compressor on and allow the tank to fill.
The compressor will shut off when the pressure
reaches the preset maximum.
2. Turn the air compressor off.
3. Pull the ring on the safety valve to release air for three
to five seconds to allow pressurized air to escape.
Release the ring. The safety release valve must
reset and hold pressure before all compressed air is
exhausted from the tank/pressure vessel.
4. Any continued loss of air after performing the above
steps indicates a problem with the safety valve.
Discontinue use and seek service before continued
use of the air compressor.
WARNING
If air leaks after the ring has been released or if the
valve is stuck and cannot be actuated by the ring, do
not use the air compressor until the safety valve has been
replaced. Use of the air compressor in this condition could
result in serious personal injury.
WARNING
When servicing, use only identical replacement parts.
Use of any other parts may create a hazard or cause
product damage.
WARNING
Always wear eye protection during maintenance. If
operation is dusty, also wear a dust mask.
WARNING
Always release all pressure, and allow unit to cool to the
touch before cleaning or making repairs on the air
compressor.
