Introduction

Thank you for purchasing this quality product. To minimise the risk of injury we urge that our clients take some basic safety precautions when using this device. Please read the operation instruc-tions carefully and make sure you have understood its content. Keep these operation instructions safe.

Safety guideline

BEWARE:
The use of this device is allowed only with fault current protection switch with a triggering nominal current up to 30 mA (according to VDE 0100 Article 702 and 738). The device is not intended for use by persons (including children) with impaired or limited physical, sensory, and mental abilities, or lack of experience and/or real knowledge, unless they are supervised by a person responsible for their safety or the follow the instructions, made by this person on how to use the device correctly. Children should be supervised to make sure that they do not play with the device.

CAUTION:

• The head of the compressor (with cooling fins) can get very hot.
• Run a visual inspection of the device before every use. Do not use the device if the safety appliances are damaged or worn out. Never override safety regulations.
• Use the device exclusively according to the intended purpose stated in the manual.
• You are responsible for the safety of the working environment.
• If the cable or the plug is damaged due to external influences, the cable must not be repaired, but must be replaced with a new one. This work can only be carried out by an electrician.
• The 230 V alternating voltage indicated on the type plate of the device must correspond to the existent mains voltage.
• Never lift, carry, or fix the device by using the power cable.
• Make sure that the electrical plug connection is protected from flood and moisture.
• Disconnect the mains plug before starting the maintenance work at the compressor.
• The user is responsible for complying with the location specific safety and mounting regulations. Ask an electrician, if necessary.
• In case of device failure, the repairs can only be carried out by an electrician.

SAFETY GUIDELINES:

• The user should choose the right compressor with the appropriate air volume and air pressure to correspond to the actual work requirements.
• Never expose the device to dust, acid, steam, explosive or flammable gases, or atmospheric influences (rain, sun, fog, snow).
• The vacuum pump can be operated only in an appropriate environment (good ventilation, am-bient temperature of +5–+40 ℃).
• Never use the compressor barefoot or with wet hands or feet.
• Never allow children to touch the switched-on compressor or to insert the plug. It may cause burns or electric shocks.
• Do not open or damage any compressor part. If necessary, please contact your seller.
• Always release the water by opening the drain valve before not using the compressor for a long time. Store the compressor in a well-ventilated place.
• Always wear goggles. Under no circumstances direct the airflow towards your body or other persons’ bodies or animals.
• Never use the device in areas with steam or moisture or close to water.
• Switch off the compressor if you do not use it. Disconnect it from mains before you repair, re-condition, maintain, clean, or replace parts. Never use the power cable as handle. Keep the power cable away from hot objects, oil, and sharp edges. Protect it against breakage. Do not pull the power cable to unplug it from the power socket.
• • If the compressor is used outdoors, only approved extensions may be used. Every wire of the extension cable must have at least 1.5 mm² cross-section.
  • Do not store the compressor with the plug inserted into the socket. Do not allow children or any other people who are not able to handle this device to play or work with it.
  • Be very careful when you are working with the compressor. Do not use it if you are tired. Persons under the influence of alcohol, drugs, or medicine are not allowed to use this device.
  • When you start working make sure that all screws are tightened.
  • Do not use the compressor if it is damaged. If the compressor generates unusual noises and strong vibrations or if other unusual signs occur that indicate some damage you should turn off the compressor immediately. For repairs, please use only original spare parts. Do not make any technical modifications to the compressor. In case you cannot eliminate the malfunction hand over the device to an expert.

Main components

Technical specifications

Notes:

• The compressor has a 9.51 mm outlet (⅛″, male thread), which can be effortlessly changed to ¼″. The matching adapter is not included in the supply.
• When the compressor is connected by the hose to the airbrush gun, the compressor can be connected to the mains and be switched on.
• The maximum pressure is displayed by the pressure gauge, the operating pressure can be adjusted by the pressure regulator.
• If the auto-stop mode is activated (repeatedly switch on/off) any and all screw fittings and con-nections should be sealed by sealing tape.

The AF186A compressor has a tank in which compressed air can be stored before the airbrush gun is supplied. This tank has the following advantages:

• The tank contains a supply of compressed air that you can use for airbrushing.
• You can draw air from the reservoir at a certain pre-set pressure instead of using the average air pressure from the pistons.
• When drawing compressed air from the tank, the small air pressure pulsations caused by the piston movement are removed.
• The service life of the compressor motor is extended because it only starts when the tank needs new compressed air instead of always being switched on.

Leakage control

• Switch on the compressor and wait until the maximum pressure has built up and the auto-stop function has been activated.
• If there is no leakage, the pressure gauge should display nearly constantly the same range of pressure.
• A quick decrease of the range of pressure suggests that there is in fact a leakage.
• It is of great importance to seal any leak as soon as possible to avoid any impact on the capacity and efficiency of the compressor.
• A leak causes the auto-stop and auto-start function to be carried out permanently.

Difference between maximum and operating pressure

• The maximum pressure is the highest possible pressure a compressor can generate.
• Once the maximum pressure has been reached, the compressor switches off (auto-stop). As soon as the pressure starts to decrease, it switches on again (auto-start).
• Maximum pressure is the pressure measured inside the compressor.
• There is a lower pressure on the outlet of the compressor. The pressure you work with remains. The operating pressure may vary according to the connected airbrush gun.

Operation of the pressure relief station with filter

| Letter| Name
---|---|---
a| Pressure regulator
b| Pressure gauge
c| Water drain plug

Product name: Pressure regulator with filter and pressure gauge
Type: AFR-2000
Features:
The AFR-2000 is an in-line low pressure regulator with max. 9 bar (100 psi) manometer and water drain plug. This regulator allows you to control the pressure and helps generating clean, dry, pressure-stable air. The regulator can be used only according to the operating instructions.

Operation

• The pressure gauge reports the air tool working pressure.
• Pull up the adjusting knob; its being clockwise rotated increases the pressure, a counter-clockwise rotation reduces the pressure.
• Rotate the adjusting knob to achieve the right working pressure and lock it downwards by clicking it into place.
• Do not rotate the knob against high resistance. If necessary, the height and the position of the of the knob can vary slightly.
• For emptying the condensed water collector use the water drain plug.
