SAFETY GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
The compressor should be grounded while in use to protect the operator
from electric shock. The compressor is equipped with a three-core cable
and three-pin grounding type plug to fit the proper grounding type socket.
Never disassemble the compressor or carry out other connections to the
pressure switch.
WARNING – the grounding must be carried out according to EN 60204
norms.
EXTENSION CABLE Use only three-way extension cables that have three-
pin connecting plugs and three-pole sockets that accept the compressor
plug. Do not use extension cables that are damaged or squashed. An
under-rated cable will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power
and overheating. The table shows the correct size to use depending on the
length according to the following parameters (size in [mm
maximum length of 20 mt.):
220/230V
1,5 mm²
Avoid electrical shock hazard. Never use this compressor with a damaged
or frayed electrical cord or extension cord. Inspect all electrical cords
regularly. Never use in or near water or in any environment where electric
shocks are possible.
INSTALLATION
Fit the suction cups underneath the base of the unit as indicated. Position
the compressor on a flat surface or one with a max. inclination of 10° in a
well-ventilated area. If the surface is sloping and smooth, make sure that
the compressor does not move while in operation. If the compressor
operates on a shelf or the edge of a stand, ensure that it may not fall off by
securing it appropriately.
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 electrical
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 working pressure. On the
contrary, a pneumatic tool usually requires less pressure. Adjust the
pressure to the required 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 accumulates in the tank. The condensate must be
drained from the tank at least once a week by opening the condensate
drain valve underneath it. 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.

WARNING
START-UP
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
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 ON/OFF 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 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 use the compressor to threaten people or animals to avoid serious
injuries.
-Always unplug the compressor from the power socket when you have
finished using it.
TECHNICAL DATA
Maximum running pressure: 8.9 bar Maximum working pressure: 8 bar
The sound pressure level measured in a free range at a distance of 4 mt. at
the maximum working pressure.The value of the sound level may increase
from 1 to 10 dB(A) depending on the environment in which the compressor
is installed.
This compressor has been designed for DIY use with intermittent (not
continuous) operation. The use of the compressor for more than 20 min.
during one hour is not recommended.
PNEUMATIC CONNECTIONS
Make sure that pneumatic tubes for compressed air with maximum
pressure characteristics that are adequate for the compressor are used. Do
not attempt to repair faulty tubes.
NOTE: Specifications are subject to change without any prior warning
where necessary.
