CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Warning!
Pull the power plug before doing any cleaning and maintenance work
on the appliance.
Warning!
Wait until the compressor has completely cooled down. Risk of burns!
Warning!
Always depressurize the tank before carrying out any cleaning and
maintenance work.
Never clean the machine and its components with solvents, flammable or
toxic liquids. Us only a damp cloth making sure you have unplugged the
compressor from the current outlet.
Draining tank
After approx. 2 hours of use, the condensate that has formed must be
drained from the receiver. First of all, vent all the air using the pneumatic
tool connected.
The condensation water must be drained off each day by opening the drain
valve (ref. 3) (on the bottom of the pressure vessel).
Draining the tank (a correct use of the drain valve - pic. 3):
1. Verify that the compressor is turned Off.
2. Holding the handle, tilt the compressor toward the drain valve so that
it's set in a lower position.
3. Open the drain valve.
4. Keep the compressor tilted until all moisture has been removed.
5. Close the drain valve.

POSSIBLE FAULTS AND RELATED PERMITTED REMEDIES
FAULT
Reduction of performance. Frequent start-up.
Low pressure values.
The compressor stops and restarts
automatically after a few minutes.
After a few attempts to restart, the compressor.
The compressor does not stop and the safety
valve is tripped.
Any other type of operation must be carried out by authorized Service Centers, requesting original parts. Tampering with the machine may impair
its safety and in any case make the warranty null and void.
Warranty and repair.
In the event of defective goods or requirements for spare parts, kindly contact the sales point where you made your purchase.
Warning!
If the water that condenses is not drained, it may corrode the receiver,
reducing its capacity and impairing safety.
As it is a contaminating product, condensate must be DISPOSED of
in accordance with laws on protection of the environment and current
legislation.
The compressor must be disposed in conformity with the methods
provided for by local regulations.
Safety valve
The safety valve has been set for the highest permitted pressure of the
pressure vessel. It is prohibited to adjust the safety valve or remove its
seal. Actuate the safety valve from time to time to ensure that it works when
required. Pull the ring with sufficient force (pic. 4) until you can hear the
compressed air being released. Then release the ring again.
CAUSE
Excessive performance request, check for any
leaks from the couplings and/or pipes. Intake
filter may be clogged.
Tripping of the thermal cutout due to
overheating of the motor.
Tripping of the thermal cutout due to
overheating of the motor (removal of the
plug with the compressor running, low power
voltage).
Irregular functioning of the compressor or
breakage of the pressure switch.

REMEDY
Replace the seals of the fitting, clean or replace
the filter.
Clean the air ducts in the conveyor. Ventilate
the work area.
Activate the on/off switch. Ventilate the work
area. Wait a few minutes. The compressor will
restart independently. Remove any power cable
extensions.
Remove the plug and contact the Service
Center.
