STaRT-UP
Ensure that the knob situated in the upper part of the
compressor is turned to "0". Put the plug into the power
socket and turn the knob to "I".
Attach the rubber hose or the spiral type hose to the
appropriate fitting situated near the pressure switch.
The compressor operates completely automatically
and is controlled by the pressure switch which stops it
when the pressure inside the tank reaches the maximum
pressure and starts it again when the pressure returns to
the minimum level. The difference in pressure is usually
2 bar (29 PSI).
After having connnected the compressor to the electri-
cal power supply line, load to the maximum pressure and
check the correct efficiency of the machine.
aDJUSTING THE WORKING PRESSURE
It is not always necessary to use the maximum wor-
king pressure. On the contrary, a pneumatic tool usually
requires less pressure. Adjust the pressure to the requi-
red level by turning the knob clockwise to increase it and
anti-clockwise to decrease it. The pressure setting is
shown on the pressure gauge of the compressor.
MaINTENaNCE
Before servicing the compressor, make sure that:
-the power cable is unplugged from the electricity
supply.
-there is no pressure in the air receiver.
The compressor generates condensation that accu-
mulates in the tank. The condensate must be drained
from the tank at least once a week by opening the con-
densate drain valve.
Be careful in case there is any compressed air within
the cylinder as the water could burst out with some force.
Recommended pressure 1-2 bar max.
TROUBLESHOOTING
• Loss of air
This may be due to the poor seal of one of the fittings.
Check all the fittings by wetting them with soapy wa-
ter. It is normal for the pressure to drop when the com-
pressor is not used, whatever the case (roughly 1 bar
every 5 minutes).
• The compressor fails to start
If the compressor has difficulty in starting, make sure
that:
- all the wires are correctly connected.
- the mains voltage is efficient (plug connected cor-
rectly, magneto-thermal switch, fuses unblown).
• The compressor fails to stop
If the compressor fails to stop when the maximum
pressure is reached, the tank safety valve will cut in.
It is necessary to contact your local authorised service
centre.
WaRNING
– Do not drill, weld or intentionally deform the com-
pressed air tank.
– Ambient temperature for correct operation of the
compressor is between 0°C and 25°C (max.45°C).
– When temporarily not in use, turn the switch to "0"
(OFF).
– Be aware that some components of the compressor
such as the head and delivery hoses, may reach high
temperatures, therefore do not touch them to avoid the
risk of burning.
– Transport the compressor by lifting it with the appro-
priate grips or handles.
– If the compressor is used for painting:
a) do not work in an enclosed area or near naked fla-
me
b) ensure that the area in which you are working has
adequate ventilation
c) protect nose and mouth with an appropriate mask
– Do not direct airstream at people or animals to avoid
serious injuries.
– Always unplug the compressor from the power
socket when you have finished using it.

Note: the sound pressure level measured in a free
range at a distance of 4 mt. dB(A) at the maximum wor-
king pressure. The value of the sound level may increase
from 1 to 10 dB(A) depending on the environment in whi-
ch the compressor is installed.
PNEUMaTIC CONNECTIONS
Make sure that pneumatic tubes for compressed air
with maximum pressure characteristics that are adequa-
te for the compressor are used. Do not attempt to repair
faulty tubes.
NOTE: Specifications are subject to change without
any prior warning where necessary.
