Introduction

Thank you for choosing to purchase this quality product. To minimize the risk of injury, we ask you to always take some basic safety precautions when using this product. Please read this operating manual carefully and make sure that you understand it. Keep these operating instructions in a safe place.

Operating and safety instructions

  • Before starting the compressor, carefully read the operating instructions.
  • The compressor should be installed in a dry and ventilated room. Keep the machine away from flammable objects and chemicals.
  • The downtime should not exceed two years. If the compressor is not going to be used for a longer period, it is recommended to run it for about 15 min every 4 weeks.
  • Before starting the compressor, the necessary maintenance and checks must be carried out.
  • Falls and shocks must be avoided. The compressor must be set up on a stable, level surface. It must not be inclined during transport or operation.
  • Make sure that all open connections are closed with protective caps during transport to prevent dirt and water from entering.
  • To ensure good compressor performance, the compressor should be located in a ventilated, clean, and cool area. Avoid dusty or polluted air and high temperatures in the vicinity.
  • Make sure that the compressor is switched off before connecting it to the mains. After connecting to the power supply, you can put it into operation.
  • The voltage must not exceed or fall below the nominal voltage by more than 10 %.
  • The air compressor must not get wet. To avoid damage, it must not be placed in a wet area.
  • Do not touch high-temperature components such as the cylinder head, exhaust pipe, and check valve to avoid possible burns.
  • The electrical cable must meet the power requirement. The cable must not be too long. Otherwise, it will affect the starting process and the performance of the air compressor.
  • Do not store the compressor outdoors and protect it from direct sunlight.
  • Make sure that all open connections are closed with protective caps during transport in order to prevent dirt and water from entering.

Warning! Disconnect the power supply and drain the system before installing, transporting, or performing maintenance! Follow all local electrical and safety regulations.
Caution! Never use an extension cord on this product. Use an additional air hose instead of an extension cord to avoid power outages and permanent engine damage. The use of an extension cable voids the warranty.

Main technical specifications

Operation

  • Start the compressor by setting the switch to “On.” If the compressor does not start, release the air from the tank until the pressure has dropped to 4 bar (0.4 MPa). Then the compressor starts. To switch the compressor off, turn the switch to “Off” and interrupt the power supply so that the compressor stops.
  • A safety valve is built into the switchgear. If the pressure in the pressure vessel exceeds 8 bar (0.8 MPa), the safety valve warns and releases the air. At the alarm sounding, check the pressure switch. Make sure that the pressure switch is operating below the nominal operating pressure.
  • When using the oil-water separator: After switching off the compressor, please press the needle beneath the oil-water separator with your finger to drain the dirty water in the separator.
  • The air pressure can be adjusted using the button on the oil-water separator. Turn the knob clockwise to increase air pressure, turn it counter-clockwise to decrease air pressure until the air source is shut off.
  • Note: If you turn the knob all the way, do not force it any further. If you do so, it could be damaged.
  • If you want to set the operating pressure of the pressure switch, please remove the cover and set the rotary screw inside. Turn clockwise to increase the air pressure and turn counter-clockwise to decrease it.
  • Note: Always pull the plug and disconnect the compressor from the power source before carrying out any adjustments or repairs/maintenance.

Repair and maintaining

Caution! Maintenance work may only be carried out after the power supply has been switched off and the tank has been completely vented. Failure to comply can lead to serious injuries!

  • Always keep the machine clean and clean it regularly.
  • Drain contaminated water from the tank at least once a week. When emptying the water from the tank, make sure that the pressure in the tank is below 0.1 MPa.
  • Check regularly whether the safety valve is sensitive or not. The safety valve must be able to release the air easily. Pull the bar down to reset it.
  • The air filter should be cleaned or replaced every 500 hours. At the same time, take out the air valve and clean it. If the airflow rate is significantly less than the rated output, check if the air filter is clogged. Also check that all connections are still tight. If the piston rubber cup is worn out by dust, replace it.
  • The compressor tank must be checked every two years. Regularly check the parts of the tool parts. If there are rusted areas on the tank or if the tank does not pass the pressure test, the tank must be scrapped.

Troubleshooting

Caution! All maintenance work may only be carried out when the compressor has been disconnected from the power supply and the air in the tank has been released.
