• Batteries present a risk if they become damaged by the possible leaking of electrolyte.

• This electrolyte is an acid and can cause serious burn injuries. Care should be taken when working on or near them.

• NOTE the electrolyte may be in a liquid or gel form.

• Should you come in to contact with electrolyte you should;

• Remove all clothing contaminated with electrolyte. If you cannot remove then saturate them in water.

• Get medical assistance as soon as possible. You must advise the medical staff of the type of acid.

• Lead/acid battery = dilute sulphuric acid.

• Nickel/cadmium = potassium hydroxide alkali electrolyte.

• Use fresh running water to wash off excess electrolyte, continue this until medical assistance arrives.

• Make sure that you do not was the electrolyte to another part of your body or face.

• If electrolyte comes in to contact with Eyes the electrolyte needs to be immediately washed away with large amounts of water. Make sure that you do not wash the electrolyte to another part of your face or body.

• Gasses from charging batteries are highly flammable and great care should be taken to charge in well ventilated areas.

• There is an explosion risk if the battery terminals are short circuited, when connecting/disconnecting ALWAYS exercise great care so that the terminals or battery leads are NOT allowed to touch and cause a spark. ALWAYS use suitable insulated tools.

• Vibrations (where applicable).
  Prolonged use of hand held (operated) machines will cause the user to feel the effects of/from vibrations. These vibrations can lead to white finger (Raynaud’s phenomenon) or carpal tunnel syndrome. This condition reduces the ability of the hand to feel and regulate temperature, causing numbness and heat sensations and may cause never damage and circulatory tissue death.

• Not all factors that lead to white finger disease are known, but cold weather, smoking and other diseases that affect blood vessels and blood circulation as well as large and long-lasting impact of shocks are considered factors in the formation of white finger.

• Note the following to reduce the risk of white finger and carpal tunnel syndrome;

• Wear gloves and keep your hands warm.

• Take regular breaks.

• All of the above precautions may help reduce the risk of white finger disease but not rule out the carpal tunnel syndrome.

• Long-term and regular users are therefore recommended to observe the condition of your hands and fingers. Seek medical attention immediately if any of the above symptoms should occur.

• Noise (where applicable).
  The operating noise of the machine can damage your hearing. Wear hearing protection such as earplugs or ear defenders to protect your hearing.

• The pressure safety valves on Hyundai compressors have been updated to comply with the latest CE certification standards. The pressure release pull ring has been removed from the valve due to the pull ring being incorrectly used to drain the air from the compressor tank, causing excessive wear to this safety valve. The air and moisture should drained from the tank by releasing the drain valve on the bottom of the tank.
• Correct Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) MUST be worn at all times when operating or repairing this machine. This should include but is not limited to;
  

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

• The compressor is fitted with a standard 13amp, 230v (50Hz) plug for connection to a standard 13amp domestic electrical power supply.
• If the plug should need changing at any time, ensure a plug of identical specification is used.
• The fuse in the plug must be replaced with one of the same rating.
• We recommend that the compressor is connected to the mains supply via a Residual Current Device (RCD).
• DO NOT use with damaged cables and only use the correct rated extension cords.
• If in doubt, consult a qualified electrician.

PREPERATION

NOTE
Before starting the compressor, remove the travel plugs and install the air filter and crank case breather plug.

• Position the compressor in a flat, level surface with a maximum permissible inclination of 10°

• Site in a well-ventilated area.

• If the surface is inclined and smooth, check that the compressor cannot move while in operation.

• If the surface is in a raised position, make sure the compressor cannot fall, securing it in a suitable way.

• Check the oil level sits in the red circle of the oil glass sight window.

• Connect your air supply to a ¼” male universal or industrial quick connector coupler.
  Connect the male quick connect coupler to the female quick connect coupler located on the air compressor.

• Make sure the drainage valve is off and that the pressure switch is in the ODD position.

• Keep the voltage within ±4% of the rated value.

• Insert the power supply cord into the power supply socket.

TEST RUN
NOTE
Before using the air compressor for the first time, complete a test run as follows.

• Move the power switch to the OFF position.
• Check the oil level is in the red circle of the glass sight window.
• Plug the power supply cord into a power supply socket.
• Start the air compressor by moving the power switch to the ON position.
• The pressure gauge reading will slowly rise as pressure increases inside the air tank.
• When the gauge reading reaches working pressure, the pressure switch will automatically turn the power off.
• This indicates the compressor is working normally.
• Move the power switch to the OFF position, unplug the power supply cord and release the air in the tank by pulling the safety valve.
• If the compressor is not working properly, the pressure gauge will indicate that there is a decrease in pressure in the tank.
• If there is an air leak from the compressor, the pressure in the air tank decreases, the pressure switch resets and the motor automatically turns back on.

STARTING PROCEDURE

• Check that the power switch is in the OFF position.
• Attach the air hose to the ¼” quick disconnect coupler.
• Close the drain valve and ensure the air filter is installed.
• Close the drain valve.
• Check the oil level.
• Plug the compressor in to a working plug socket.
• Move the power switch to the ON position.
• Allow the tank motor to run and fill the tank until the motor turns off.
• To regulate the air flow: While the air compressor is running, turn ON your tool and turn the regulator knob to the right, increasing the pressure.
• Turn the pressure up until the desired pressure is reached.
• Operate the air tool normally.

STOPPING PROCEDURE

• Move the power switch to the OFF position.
• Unplug the compressor.
• Reduce the pressure in the tank through the air supply hose.

USING THE MACHINE

• To determine the correct working pressure and air flow requirements for any piece of equipment, check the corresponding manual.
• Be aware that the air flow figure stated on tools and accessories refers to ‘free air delivery’ and not the piston displacement of the compressor.
• When adjusting the regulator, always adjust up to the required pressure.
• After fitting the desired coupling to the outlet valve, connect and air hose and hook up to an air system.
• An outlet regulator is necessary to use air equipment direct from the compressor.
• At the end of each working day, drain any moisture from the main tank.
• Place a container under the drain plug and then carefully unscrew it anti-clockwise.
• DO NOT allow moisture to accumulate in the tank as this will corrode the inside of the tank and affect the pressure rating of the tank.

MAINTENANCE

WARNING
Service and maintenance must be performed by an authorized agent.
DO NOT tamper with or attempt to adjust the pressure switch or safety valve. Before moving or carrying out any maintenance on the compressor, make sure that the ignition switch is in the OFF position, the power cord has been unplugged and the air tank pressure has been vented and the compressor allowed to cool down for a period of time.

DRAINING THE TANK

• You should drain the tank at the end of each day.
• Place a suitable container capable of holding water, underneath the compressor.
• With compressed air in the tank, slowly turn the drain knob to the open position. The water in the tank will drain out.
• Once the water has drained, turn the drain knob to the closed position.
• Draining the tank reduces risk of corrosion inside the tank.

AIR FILTER

• The air filter is designed to reduce noise and help prevent particulates in the air, from entering and damaging the air compressor.
• After being used for a period of time, the air filter will become clogged. This will reduce the air intake capabilities of the compressor, reducing performance. Therefore, the air filter must be cleaned or replaced regularly.
• Open the cover on the air filter and remove the air filter element.
• Inspect the filter element and if damaged or worn, replace immediately.
• To clean the element, blow the dirt from the air filter from the inside out.
• You can use a low pressure airline to do this.
• Reinstall the air filter.

LEAK TESTING

• A small leak in any house or connection will reduce the air compressors performance.
• To test for leaks, spray a small amount of soapy water on the area suspected of leaking.
  If soap bubbles appear, replace the broken part.

CLEANING

• Clean the compressor with a soft brush or moist cloth.
• DO NOT use a pressure washer or hose pipe as water can penetrate the motor and cause failure that will not be covered by the warranty.
• DO NOT use solvent based cleaning products, these could damage parts.

STORAGE

• Turn off the power and wrap the power cord around the compressor.
• Pull the relief valve and release all the pressure from the air tank.
• Clean the air compressor to remove all dirt and dust.
• Cover the air compressor with a cover to protect the unit from dust and moisture.
