1. PRECAUTIONS
An ACOUSTIC PRESSURE value of 4 m. corresponds
to the ACOUSTIC POWER value stated on the label
located on the compressor, minus 20 dB.
This symbol indicates warnings to be read
before using the product so as to prevent injury
to the user.
Warning!
Compressed air is a potentially dangerous form
of energy; always take great care when using the
compressor and its accessories.
Warning!
The compressor may restart when power is restored
following a blackout.
THINGS TO DO
● The compressor must be used in a suitable
environment (well ventilated with an ambient
temperature of between +5°C and +40°C) and never
in places affected by dust, acids, vapors, explosive
or flammable gases.
● Keep the work area clear. Clear the work area of un-
necessary tools.
● Always maintain a safety distance of at least 4 meters
between the compressor and the work area.
● Insert the plug of the electric cable in a socket of suitable
shape, voltage and frequency complying with current
regulations.
● Use extension cables with a maximum length of 5 meters
and of suitable cross-section.
● The use of extension cables of different length and also
of adapters and multiple sockets should be avoided.
● If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by
the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified
persons in order to avoid a hazard.
● Always use the switch I/O to switch off the compressor.
● When the compressor is not in use, act on the I/O switch
and put it in the switched off position "O" (OFF), then
remove the plug from the power socket.
● At the end of each use, rewind the hose completely, put-
ting it in its housing; this way the reel will be protected of
unnecessary and prolonged tension.
