● 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.).
2. FEATURES (Pics. 1-2-3)
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. Tank Pressure Gauge: The tank pressure gauge
indicates the air pressure that is present in the tank
in PSI (and BAR).
C. 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.
D. 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.
E. Drain Valve: Ball style valve that drains moisture
from the tank when opened.
F.
Quick Coupler: The quick coupler is used to connect
the airline to your tool.
G. Safety valve: The safety valve is set to avoid over-
pressurization of the air tanks. This valve is factory
pre-set at 10 bar (145 PSI) 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.
H. Handle for lifting/moving.
I.
Shoulder belt for easy transport and use: The
compressor may be conveniently carried using the
shoulder belt.
– If the metal rings have not already been fitted,
insert the two rings in the two holes in the ends of
the aluminium handle (as shown in Figure 7a).
– To fit the belt to the compressor: attach the shoulder
strap by inserting the snap hooks into the metal rings
on the ends of the handle (as shown in Figure 7b).
J. Strip attach/detach: In case the compressor is fitted
with a Velcro® strip, use this strip to secure an air-
operated tool (e.g.: nailer) or a PVC extension pipe
to the body of the compressor (as shown in Figures
6a-6b).
K. Storage box for accessories.
● Never
exceed
the
recommended by the manufacturer of any attachment or
accessory you use with this compressor.
3. SCOPE OF USE

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.

4. ELECTRICAL GROUNDING
INSTRUCTIONS
This product should be electrically grounded. In the event
of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of
electrical shock by providing an escape wire for electrical
current. This product is equipped with a cord having
a grounding wire with an appropriate grounding plug.
The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes
and ordinances.
4.1 Connection of the mains plug
Important!
The wires in the mains lead fitted to this product are
coloured in accordance with the code shown in pic. 9.
● The 3 pin plug must comply to BS1363/A.
● Fuse must comply to BS1362.
If for any reason the 13 amp plug fitted to this product
requires replacement it must be wired in accordance with
the following instruction:
Do not connect the brown (live) or blue (neutral) to the
earth pin marked 'E'
Connect the Blue wire to the terminal marked Neutral (N).
Connect the Brown wire to the terminal marked Live (L).
Connect the Yellow & Green wire to the terminal marked
Earth (E). Ensure that the outer insulation is gripped by the
cord grip and that the wires are not trapped when replacing
the plug cover. The mains lead on this product is fitted with
a 13 amp (BS1363/A) plug. A 13 amp (BS1362) fuse must
be fitted in the plug.
If in doubt consult a qualified electrician
There are no user serviceable parts inside this product
except those referred to in the manual. Always refer

maximum
allowable
pressure
on the 3 pin plug.
