• D o not transport the compressor with the tank
pressurised.
• N .B.: some parts of the compressor such as
the head and the feed-through pipes may
reach high temperatures. Do not touch these
parts to avoid burns (fig. 12-13).
• T ransport the compressor by lifting it or by
using the special grips or handles (fig. 5-6).
• C hildren and animals should be kept far away
from the area of operation of the machine.
• I f you use the compressor to spray paint:
a) Do not work in enclosed spaces or near naked
flames.
b) Make sure that the environment in which you
will be working has dedicated ventilation.
c) Protect your nose and mouth with a dedicated
mask (fig. 21).
• D o not use the compressor when the electrical
cable or the plug is damaged, and instruct an
authorised Support Service to replace them
with an original part.
• W hen the compressor is placed on a surface
higher than the floor, it should be secured to
prevent it from falling down during operation.
• D o not put objects or your hands in the
protective covers to avoid physical damage
and damage to the compressor.
• D o not use the compressor as a blunt
instrument against persons, objects or animals
in order to prevent serious damage.
• I f the compressor is no longer in use, always
take the plug out of the plug socket.
• A lways make sure that compressed-air
hoses are used for compressed air and which
are characterised by a maximum pressure
adjusted to that of the compressor. Do not try
to repair the hose if it is damaged.
Electrical safety
Earthing regulations
This compressor has to be earthed while in use
in order to protect the operator against electrical
shocks. The compressor is provided with a two-
core cable plus an earth. The electrical connection
has to be made by a qualified technician. We
recommend never disassembling the compressor
and neither making any other connections into
the pressure regulator. Repairs should be carried
out by authorised Support Services or by other
qualified centres.

Never forget that the earthing core is the
green or the yellow/green wire. Never
connect this green wire to a terminal
under load.
Before replacing the plug of the feed, make sure
that the earth cable is connected. If in doubt,
please call in a qualified electrician and have the
earthing checked.
Power supply
• T he compressor is equipped with a mains
cable with shock-proof plug. This can be
connected to any 230V~/50Hz shock proof
socket which is protected by a 16A fuse.
• T he motor is fitted with an overload switch
(15). If the compressor overloads, the
overload switch switches the equipment off
automatically to protect the compressor from
overheating. If the overload switch triggers,
switch off the compressor using the ON/OFF
switch (3) and wait until the compressor cools
down. Then press the overload switch (15) and
restart the compressor.
• L ong supply cables, extensions, cable reels etc
cause a drop in voltage and can impede motor
start-up. Do not use cables longer than 10m.
Ferm advises to use a longer air hose instead.
• I t can be more difficult to start-up the motor
during conditions of temperatures below 0C.
