SAFETY RULES
This symbol indicates warnings to be read before using the product so as
to prevent injury to the user.
Compressed air is a potentially dangerous form of energy; always take
great care when using the compressor and its accessories.
Warning: the compressor may restart when power is restored following
a blackout.
An ACOUSTIC PRESSURE's value of 2 m. corresponds to the
ACOUSTIC POWER's value stated on the yellow label located on the
compressor, minus 14 dB.
DO'S
- The compressor must be used in a suitable environment (well ventilated
with an ambient temperature of between +5°C and +40°C) and never in
places with dust, acids, vapors, explosive or flammable gases.
- Keep the work area free. When operating, the compressor must be placed
on a stable surface.
- Safety goggles should be worn when using the compressor in order to
protect the eyes against any foreign bodies lifted by the jet of air.
- If possible, when using air-powered accessories, wear safety clothing.
- Always maintain a safety distance of at least 2 meters between the
compressor and the work area.
- Check for correspondence between the compressor plate data with the
actual specifications of the electrical system. A variation of ± 10% with
respect of the rated value is allowed.
- Insert the plug of the electrical cable in a socket of suitable shape, voltage
and frequency complying with current regulations.
- Use extension cables with a maximum length of 5 meters and with a cable
cross-section of not less than 1.5 mm
length and cross-section and also of adapters and multiple sockets should
be avoided.
- Always use the handle to move the compressor.

- When using compressed air, you must know and comply with the safety
precautions to be adopted for each type of application (inflation, air-
powered tools, painting, washing with water-based detergents only,
clinching, etc.).
- To avoid overheating of the electric motor, this compressor is designed
for intermittent duty operation as indicated on the technical dataplate
(for example, S3-15 means 1.5 minutes On, 8.5 minutes OFF). In case
of overheating, the thermal cutout of the motor is released, automatically
cutting off the power when the temperature is too high due to excess
current take-off. The motor restarts automatically when normal temperature
conditions are restored.
DON'TS
- Never direct the jet of air towards persons, animals or your body.
- Never let the compressor come into contact with water or other liquids
and never direct the jet of liquids sprayed by tools connected to the
compressor towards the compressor: as the appliance is live, this could
cause electrocution or short-circuits.
- Never use the appliance with bare feet or wet hands or feet.
- Never yank the power cable to disconnect the plug from the power outlet or
to move the compressor.
- Never leave the appliance exposed to adverse weather conditions (rain,
sun, fog, snow).
- If this compressor is used outdoors, always remember to stow it after use
in a covered or closed place
- Never use the compressor outdoors in rain or bad weather.
- Never allow inexpert persons to use the compressor without suitable
surveillance. Keep animals at a distance from the work area.
- This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with
reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience
and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction
concerning the use of the appliance by a person responsible for their
safety.
- Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the
appliance.
- The compressed air produced by the compressor cannot not be used for
pharmaceutical, food or medical purposes or to fill the air bottles of scuba
divers.
- Do not place flammable or nylon/fabric objects close to and/or on the
compressor.
- Do not cover the air inlets on the compressor.
- Do not open or tamper with any part of the compressor. Contact an
