PRESSURE SWITCH BUTTON:
The compressor is built with a pressure switch combining stop
button / start function. Find it in the upper side. The button shall be
set in the "UP" position to start the compressor and in the "DOWN" to
turn-off. (See figure A)
A
NOTE: Before starting the compressor any compressed air remaining
above the piston and in the feeding pipe shall be discharged. Press
the pressure switch button and lift it again into the "I" (ON) position.
The motor will start immediately.
AUTOMATIC OPERATION
The compressor will automatically stop operating when reaching
800 kPa (116 PSI) pressure. When air and tank pressure are reduced to
600 kPa (87 PSI), the compressor will automatically start again.
Once the compressor is running it will automatically stop and start.
Your compressor is built with a factory preset pressure switch. It stops
the motor when the tank pressure reaches its maximum operation
pressure and starts the motor automatically when the tank pressure
lowers to the preset pressure. In the event that before reaching the
regular pressure-cut you need to stop the compressor, press the switch
button. (See figure B).

COMPRESSOR RELIEF VALVE:
The button in the upper side of the black pressure switch activates a
small check valve. It relieves air from above the piston and the
tank-feeding pipe. Press the button now and then to assure the valve
is functioning and relieving air correctly.

MAINTENANCE
Maintenance made in a regular basis will assure maximum efficiency
for a long period of time.
PREVENTIVE DAILY MAINTENANCE
OIL: Check oil level in the casing
and refill if necessary. If the
compressor is not used every day,
check the oil level in the casing
before starting. Replace oil after
500 hours. (See figure C).
WATER: Due to air condensation water gets stored in the tank bottom.
Drain using the purge valve found in the lower
side of the compressor tank. Unscrew the
warped ring to drain and tighten back before
starting the compressor. (See figure D).
LEAKS: Double-check to detect leaks in the compressor, connections,
feeding pipes and couplings. Reseal if necessary. Keep in mind that
even a very small leak could waste compressed air. Is an extra cost in
energy used and will reduce the compressor duty life.
SCREWS IN THE CYLINDERS HEAD: These shall be checked and
tightened after the first day of operation, after 50 hours and later on,
every 4 months. The cylinder head shall be completely cold before
this operation. Torque value is 23 Nm (16.96 Lb-ft).
AIR FILTER: Inspect, and
clean blowing with
compressed air. If too
contaminated replace
cartridge. (See figure E).
SAFETY VALVE: Is set to
activate and release air
pressure in the event of fault
on the pressure switch. (See
Figure F)

AFTER 200 HOURS
BELT TENSION AND ALIGNMENT: Isolate the main power. Check the
motor pulley and the pump flywheel. Verify alignment and see that
movement in the middle point of the "V" shaped belt shall not exceed
0.47". Also verify the motor and pump fastening screws are tightened.
Look for wear in the belt.
Double-check both pump
flywheel and motor pulley
is fastened in their
respective shafts.
