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 accumulates in
the tank. The condensate must be drained from the tank at least
once a week by opening the condensate drain valve.
Be careful in case there is any compressed air within the cylin-
der 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 water. It is
normal for the pressure to drop when the compressor 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 correctly, ma-
gneto-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 compressed 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, the-
refore do not touch them to avoid the risk of burning.
– Transport the compressor by lifting it with the appropriate
grips or handles.
– If the compressor is used for painting:
a) do not work in an enclosed area or near naked flame
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 working pressure. The va-
lue of the sound level may increase from 1 to 10 dB(A) depending
on the environment in which the compressor is installed.
PNEUMaTIC CONNECTIONS
Make sure that pneumatic tubes for compressed air with maxi-
mum pressure characteristics that are adequate for the compres-
sor are used. Do not attempt to repair faulty tubes.
