Start Up
Turning ON and operation
CAUTION
• Before operating the compressor, set it in a
flat, level and solid surface, good ventilation and away of
flammable object, for example, curtains or drapes. Leave 12"
free space around the compressor to allow air to circulate.
• Turn the regulator (A) completely in a counterclockwise
direction to close the air flow.
• Connect the air hose to the air outlet (B).
• Press the ON / OFF switch (C) into the OFF (O) position.
• Connect the power cable.
• Turn ON the equipment pressing the ON / OFF switch into
ON (I) position. Let the compressor run until reaching the
pressure of the automatic switch off.
• Set the pneumatic tool in the end of the hose.
• Turn the regulator until the gaug (D) indicates the adequate
pressure for the pneumatic tool. Operate following the tool
instructions.
• As the air in the tank empties, due to the use of the
pneumatic tool, the compressor reboots automatically to keep
the preset pressure. When the tool is used continuously, the
compressor will have automatic ON / OFF cycles.
• The gaug (F) indicates the air pressure tank.
Turning OFF and storage
• Turn OFF the compressor pressing the ON / OFF switch
into the OFF (O) position.
• Disconnect the power cable and tangle it in the handle
to prevent damage when not in use.
Never disconnect the compressor from
CAUTION
the power supply to turn it OFF. If the power supply is
accidentally interrupted, do not forget to press the switch
OFF so the compressor is correctly turned off.
• Wear safety eyeglasses. Release the pressure from the
tank pulling the safety valve ring (E). Use your other
hand to divert the burst of air passing in your face.
• Drain the condensation in the tank opening the drain
valve in the bottom of the tank (F). Pressure in the tank
shall be below 68,9 kPa (10 PSI) when the tank drains.
• Disconnect the air hose from the compressor and leave
the end open and hanging to drain condensation.
• The compressor and the hose shall be stored in a fresh
and dry place.
C
Humidity in the compressed air
• Humidity inside the tank can get condensed and
produce droplets of water that get expelled with the
compressed air. When humidity in the environment is high
or when the compressor is used continuously during long
periods of time, drain the tank constantly and install a
humidity filter in the air hose, as close to the pneumatic
tool or air gun as possible.
