2. Ensure that the water tubes (H) are properly connected and the water pump (G) is plugged in.
3. Open the pressure relief valve (8) and drain valve (16) to allow excess humidity to be expelled and for the motor to warm up.
4. Wait for the water to return into the basin through the second tube.
5. Make sure the power switch (1) is in the “OFF” position before connecting the quick connector (11) to the device you wish to fill with pressurized air.
6. Once the quick connector is securely attached, turn on the power switch (1) to begin filling the device with pressurized air.

FAQ

• Can I run the compressor without oil?
  No, it is essential to have oil in the compressor for proper operation. Running the compressor without oil can cause damage to the internal components.

• How often should I change the oil?
  You should change the oil once it begins to significantly darken. Regular oil changes help maintain the performance and longevity of the compressor.

• Can I add ice to the water basin?
  Yes, you can add ice to the water basin to help keep the water temperature down. However, make sure not to allow the water itself to become ice cold, as it can damage heated components inside the compressor.

• DO NOT use this device while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. Stay alert, watch what you are doing, and use common sense when using this device. Do not overreach and keep proper footing and balance at all times.
• ONLY use this device with a stable and compatible power source. Never use this device with an extension cord unable to handle its expected load.
• NEVER direct high-pressure air towards any person for any reason. Keep others out of your work area during use, raising barriers if necessary to protect children and/or pets. Never disable any valves or other protective parts during use. If highly pressurised air is directed towards a person, seek IMMEDIATE medical help.
• ALWAYS use with personal protective equipment (PPE) sufficient to your task, including eye protection such as goggles, hearing protection such as ear plugs, and hand protection such as heavy-duty work gloves.
• ALWAYS ensure all components are intact and all connections are securely tightened before use. Do not continue operation of this device if it malfunctions or if any damage or wear is detected. Older hoses and rusted or otherwise weakened compressor tanks may explode under pressure. Tighten, repair, or replace any damaged components before further use.
• NEVER use this device without an adequate amount of lubricating oil.
• DO NOT continue pressurising if the pressure gauge is about to reach this device’s maximum pressure (310 bars or 4500 psi) OR the maximum pressure of the object being charged, whichever is LOWER.
• NEVER use this device for SCUBA tanks or other pressurised air used for breathing without specialised training and equipment to ensure that it is fully safe to do so. Using this device’s pressurised air without adequate filtration can allow dangerous pollutants and chemicals such as carbon monoxide to build up to potentially lethal levels.
• DO NOT allow the working temperature of this device to exceed 75°C or 167°F. Doing so may allow the rubber piston seals to overheat and warp, ruining the seals necessary for safe and effective operation. For best results, use distilled water and keep temperatures below 65°C.
• ALWAYS be careful around extremely heated water. Children and others with sensitive skin can be badly scalded by temperatures as low as 50°C or 125°F. Once your water reaches these temperatures, add ice or drain and replace it with extreme care to avoid burns and scalds.
• NEVER add so much ice to your cooling water that the temperature of the water approaches freezing temperatures, which can damage heated components of the device.
• DO NOT leave this device unattended during use. Pay attention to the pressure gauge and ALWAYS turn off the power once your desired pressure has been reached.
• For best results, do not use this device continuously for more than one hour at a time. After each hour of continuous operation, allow enough time for the device to cool completely before continuing.
• ALWAYS disconnect this device from its power source and release pressurised air between uses and before any cleaning, repair, or other maintenance. Never touch the pump or surrounding water while the pump is still connected to power.

SPECIFICATIONS

PACKAGE LIST

When you first get your high-pressure air compressor, check that all of the following are included and in good order. Be careful with the packaging around children, but keep it through the device’s warranty period in case of any returns.

PRODUCT DIAGRAM

ASSEMBLY

1. Place the air compressor (A) on a firm and flat surface able to easily bear its weight.

2. If your device came with its temperature gauge disconnected, place two AG13/LR44 alkaline coin batteries into it, connect the sensor wire to the back of the cylinder head, and insert the gauge into its position on the compressor housing.

3. Prepare a basin filled with no less than 20 L or 4½ gallons of clean water. For best results, use distilled water to minimise mineral buildup and contamination.

4. Use one water tube (H) to connect the pump’s water outlet to the compressor’s lower water inlet. Connect the other tube to the compressor’s upper water outlet and place the other end where it will drain water back into the pump’s basin. Make sure the pump (G) is completely covered by the cooling water and then connect it to power.
   Never touch the pump or surrounding water while it is connected to power. Always turn off the compressor and unplug the pump first before making any adjustment.

5. Open the oil fill port and slowly add ISO VG 46 or AW 46 oil until it reaches the appropriate level on the gauge, a little above halfway full.
   Never run the compressor without its oil but do not overfill. If you have added too much oil, prepare a suitable basin, open the drain port above it, and drain the excess.

6. Install the breather (E) in place of the oil fill port cap.

7. Install the knobs (F) onto the pressure relief and drain valves.

8. Connect the air hose (D) to its port just below the pressure valve, carefully aligning its threading and tightening completely with a spanner.

9. Connect the power cord (I) to its socket on the compressor and then a stable compatible power source.
   It is highly recommended to use a test plug to check for any leaks upon first use. Use it to plug the quick connector and check that system pressure reaches over 275 bars or 4000 psi within 30 seconds.

OPERATION

1. Check the oil level gauge. Your ISO VG 46 or AW 46 oil should reach a little above halfway and look essentially the same as it did coming out of the bottle. Change your oil once it begins to darken appreciably.
2. Check the air intake filter for any obstruction. Clean or replace the filter as needed.
3. Prepare your basin with at least 20 L or 4½ gallons of cooling water. Connect the water tubes, fully submerge the pump, and then plug it in. Wait for the water to return into your basin through the second tube. Note that, during use, you may add ice to your basin to help keep your water temperature down but never allow the water itself to become ice cold, which could damage heated components inside your compressor.
4. Open the pressure release valve (“bleed valve”) and drain valve so that your motor will expel excess humidity and have time to warm up before beginning full operation.
5. Pull back the outer cover from the quick connector, fit it onto the device you wish to fill with pressurised air, and release the cover to lock it in place.
6. Flip the power switch to begin operation. After about a minute of warmup, close the drain and pressure release valves to allow pressure to begin building. Keep an eye on the temperature and, once it begins approaching 65°C or 150°F, cool or change out your cooling water while being careful to avoid scalding yourself. For best results, allow time for your compressor to cool after each hour of continuous operation.
7. Pay attention to the pressure gauge. Once your desired pressure is reached, turn off the power, open the pressure release valve, and wait for the pressure gauge to read 0 psi. For best results, open the water/oil separator to dry or replace its filter, minimising obstruction and corrosion at its hose connection.
8. Open the drain valve knob to release any trapped humidity. The released water should be milky white or slightly brown without appreciable smell. If it ever becomes noticeably dark or oily smelling, change your device’s lubricating oil and have a technician check its seals and O-rings for leaks or wear.
9. Unplug your pump before removing it from your basin.

MAINTENANCE

• Always release any pressurised air and disconnect the device from power before any cleaning, repair, or other maintenance.
• Clean the exterior of the device with a soft damp cloth after use. Remove light debris from the air filter with compressed air. Do not use abrasive cleaners or caustic chemicals. Do not get any electronic components wet and allow time for all parts to fully dry before further use.
• Check the components of the device periodically for any signs of looseness, wear, or damage. Tighten, repair, or replace any problematic parts before further use.
• Check the level and quality of the oil before each use, changing as necessary. For best results, change this device’s oil at least once within the first 50 hours of operation. Change the oil at least once after every 100 hours of use or year of operation thereafter, whichever comes first.
• Check the air intake filter for any blockage before each use, cleaning or changing as necessary. Change the filter at least once after every 100 hours of use or year of operation, whichever comes first. More frequent changes may be necessary in dusty or dirty environments.
• Replace this device’s safety valve and high-pressure air hose at least once after every 1000 hours of use or year of operation, whichever comes first.
• If this device will not be used for an extended period of time, disconnect it from power, drain all fluids, and store it in a cool dry place away from direct sunlight and inaccessible to children.
