Danger - automatic control (closed loop).
Hearing, eye and respiratory protection
must be worn.
OPERATION
f To avoid overheating of the electric motor, this
compressor is designed for intermittent operation
(do not operate on more than a 25% duty cycle.
If this air compressor pumps air more than 25% of one
hour, then the compressor's capability is less than
the air delivery required by the application. Always
match the air volume requirements of the attachment
or accessory with the air volume delivery of the
compressor). In the case of overheating, the thermal
cut-out of the motor trips, automatically cutting off the
power when the temperature is too high. The motor
restarts automatically when normal temperature
conditions are restored.
f When the compressor is plugged into an electrical
source and the I/O switch is in the "ON" position,
this compressor will cycle automatically.
–
Never touch any moving parts.
–
Keep all body parts, hair, clothing, and jewelry
away from moving parts.
–
Never operate the air compressor without all
guards and shrouds in place.
–
Never stand on the compressor.
f The compressor is fitted with a safety valve that is
tripped in the case of malfunctioning of the pressure
switch in order to assure machine safety.
f The red notch on the pressure gauge refers to the
maximum operating pressure of the tank. It does not
refer to the adjusted pressure.
f When fitting a tool, the flow of air in output must be
switched off.
f When using compressed air, you must know and
comply with the safety precautions to be adopted
for each type of application (inflation, pneumatic tools,
painting, washing with water-based detergents only, etc.).
f Never exceed the maximum allowable pressure
recommended by the manufacturer of any attachment
or accessory you use with this compressor.
2. FEATURES (Fig. 1)
A. I/O Switch:
The I/O switch is the activation mechanism
that is used to start and stop the compressor. When
the switch is "On", the motor and pump will compress
air until tank pressure reaches the upper limit of the
factory set operating pressure. When tank pressure
falls below the factory set "cut in" pressure,
the compressor will again automatically start to
compress air.
B. Regulated pressure gauge: The regulated pressure
gauge indicates the amount of pressure that is allowed
into the discharge line according to the setting
of the regulator.
C. Regulator knob: The regulator knob is used to adjust
the air pressure that is available at the discharge line.
The discharge air pressure is increased by turning
the knob clockwise and decreased by turning the knob
counter clockwise.
D. Drain valve: Ball style valve that drains moisture from
the tank when opened.
E. Quick coupler: The quick coupler is used to connect
the airline to your tool.
F. Safety valve: The safety valve is set to avoid over-
pressurization of the air tanks. This valve is factory
pre-set and will not function unless tank pressure
reaches this pressure. Do not attempt to adjust or
eliminate this safety device. Any adjustments
to this valve could cause serious injury. If this
device requires service or maintenance, see an
Authorized Service Center.
G. Handle for lifting/moving.
H. Rubber foot.
I. Power cable.
3. SCOPE OF USE
The compressor is designed for generating compressed
air for tools operated by compressed air.
Please note that our equipment has not been designed
for use in commercial, trade or industrial applications.
Our warranty will be voided if the machine is used
in commercial, trade or industrial businesses or for
equivalent purposes.
The machine is to be used only for its prescribed purpose.
Any other use is deemed to be a case of misuse. The user/
operator and not the manufacturer will be liable for any
damage or injuries of any kind caused as a result of this.
4. ELECTRICAL GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
The compressor is equipped with a mains cable with
shock-proof plug. This can be connected to any shock-
proof socket which is protected by a 16 A fuse. Before
you use the machine, make sure that the mains voltage
complies with the specifications on the rating plate. Long
supply cables, extensions, cable reels etc. cause a drop in
voltage and can impede motor start-up. In the case of low
temperatures below +5°C, motor start-up is jeopardized as
a result of stiffness.
