Safety Instructions
∗ To ensure working safe, always follow the pre-operation checks (see Installation) before you start
up the compressor. This is a matter of safety for you and the machine!
∗ Do never leave inflammable objects near the compressor.
∗ Do never blow the compressed air directely to persons or animals.
∗ Make sure that children and animals are kept away from the compressor and from any equipment
attached to it. The head and air delivery line become very hot during operation and can stay hot
for a long time. Do not touch!
∗ Make sure that you know how to stop the compressor quickly.
Learn how to operate the compressor well .
∗ Make sure that nobody will operate the compressor without instruction.
∗ Do never transport the compressor with the tank under pressure.
∗ Before servicing the compressor, and in particular before disconnecting any component, make
sure that all pressure has been released from the tank and that the power has been switched off. lf
power is left switched on, the compressor can re-start suddenly. Whenever you are not using the
compressor, switch off power.
∗ If you use the compressor for paint spraying.
∗ a) Do never spray in closed rooms or in the open fire.

∗ b) Make sure that there is sufficient ventilation.

Start-Up
Always use your compressor on a flat surface.

The start switch is the knob situated on the cover of the pressure switch.
Turn the pressure switch knob to position "0".
Insert the plug into the socket and start the compressor turning the pressure
switch knob to position "1".

The compressor working process is automatic.

The pressure switch stops the compressor when the pressure in the tank
reaches the maximum value allowed and starts it again when the pressure
drop to the minimum value.

Adjust the outlet air pressure operating on the reducer filter knob.

1. pull up the knob;


2. turning the knob clockwise the pressure will rise;
3. turning the knob counterclockwise the pressure will decrease;
4. once reached the suitable pressure, push the knob down.

If the pressure switch don't work (overpressure), the safety valve will automatically operate and open
when the pressure exceeds the max. setted value.
WARNING: Never remove or repair the this valve.

WARNING: While working, the motor / air hose unit, reaches high temperature.
If working near this unit do not touch (burn risk).

Maintenance
WARNING: All operation mentioned in this chapter, must be done with the plug disconnected!

• Once a week check the oil level shown by the glass. When the motor is stopped, the oil level
must be like indicated on the label beside.
• Once a week remove the condensate which is collected in the air tank. To empty the tank, put it
under pressure take the compressor to a place where the water will not damage the floor. Tip the
compressor slightly forward and open the tap on the bottom of the tank (pos. 10; fig 1; page 2).
• Once a month drain the water collected in the
air outlet filter proceeding as follows (the
operation are to be done with the tank under
pressure):
1. turn the button clockwise;
2. pushing the button drain the condensate
contained in the bowl;
3. at the end of this operation turn the button
counterclockwise.

Warning: Do not give the condensate in the environment.
