PNEUMATIC CIRCUIT
Use recommended pipes and pneumatic tools which withstand a pressure greater than or equal to the maximum operating pressure of the compressor. -
OPERATING TEMPERATURE
Before winter, remove the compressor from the wall support (if installed outdoors) and place it in a covered and heated environment, to avoid subjecting it to an overly harsh temperature. -
DO NOT WIPE PLASTIC PARTS WITH SOLVENT
Solvents such as petrol, thinner, diesel fuel or other substances containing alcohol may damage plastic parts. DO NOT use these components on plastic parts. Wipe with a soft cloth and soapy water and dry appropriate.
INTENDED USE
The models described in this manual were designed and manufactured for
intermittent use with a maximum service factor of 30% (e.g. 3 minutes of work
and 7 minutes of rest), in optimal environmental conditions (max. temp. 35°C).
Compliance with these instructions and the maintenance intervals planned will
allow good operation of the product over time.
EARTH CONNECTION
Compressors with a rated voltage of 220÷240V are equipped with double
insulation, except for models for specific markets (e.g.: UK).
Compressors with a rated voltage of 110÷120V are fitted with a plug with
ground contact.
Any repairs must only be exclusively carried out by a qualified technician.
USE OF EXTENSION CABLE
Only use extensions with a plug and earth connection. Do not use extension
cables that are damaged or squashed. An excessively thin cable will cause a
drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating of the device.
The extension cord must have a section in proportion to its length.
WARNING
Avoid electrical shock hazards. 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.

COMPRESSOR INSTALLATION / FASTENING
Remove the compressor from its packing (fig.10), makes sure it is in perfect conditions, ensuring no damage occurred during transport; ensure all the components are present inside (fig. 10).
To fasten the compressor, you will need an electric drill, a ø 10 mm drill bit and a screwdriver (fig. 11).
To fasten to full brick or cement walls, use the screws and expansion plugs supplied. To fasten to any other surface (check the surfaces can support the weight of the compressor), purchase the appropriate type of screws and plugs.
For fastening, you are advised to have a second person assist you.
Choose the position on which the compressor will be fastened to it has sufficient space to rotate approx. 120˚ and you can easily reach the compressed air hose (fig. 9).
To obtain good ventilation and efficient cooling, it is important for the compressor to be at least 50 cm from any wall/obstacle.
COMPRESSOR SUPPORT FASTENING ON WALL
Comply with the specific indications in this manual (fig. 12).
Fasten the compressor (fig.13); check you can easily reach the hose (fig.9).
Use the support (a) (fig. 13) as a template to mark the points where the holes for fastening should be drilled (fig. 12).
With a 10 mm bit, drill 4 holes on the wall (fig. 12) and insert the plugs in them.
Fasten the compressor support (a) to the wall and at the same time the support for the tools (b) using the 4 screws supplied (fig. 13)
COMPRESSOR ASSEMBLY ON SUPPORT
(fig. 14) Insert the compressor on the support in the direction of the arrow F1.
Assemble the support with the compressor and insert the pin (a) in the direction of the arrow F2.
Lock the pin on the support with the rubber cap (b). Check the compressor is free to rotate and that the compressed air hose comes out and goes back in correctly.
-
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
Single-phase compressors are supplied with an electric cord and a two-pole plug.
It is important to connect the compressor to a current socket protected by an adequate circuit breaker switch (fig.15).
OPERATION
Check that the mains power matches that indicated on the electrical rating plate (fig.15), the permissible tolerance range is +/-5%.
Insert the plug in the current socket and start the compressor by bringing the switch (g) into position “I / ON” (fig.15).
The winder is composed of an automatic locking mechanism that allows stoppage of the desired length of hose.
Never wind the hose uncontrollably.
The locking system produces a metallic noise during unwinding and winding; it is not a defect. If the noise changes after several applications and/or if you have problems with the mechanism, please contact a service centre.
Tube unwinding: Carefully remove the tube from the housing; after having unwound the necessary tube, loosen the socket slightly, so that when a “CLICK” is heard, the block is engaged. Check that the tube is blocked before leaving it. Rewinding the hose: Loosen the block by pulling outwards. Allow the hose to retract in a controlled manner, accompanying it until it completely retracts into the retractor.
On the quick coupling (c) on the end of the hose, connect the desired accessories (d) (fig. 16) and pulling the hose you can easily reach the use point of the compressed air.
At the end of each use: -
completely rewind the hose by accompanying it to its compartment;
-
stop the compressor bringing the switch to position “0 / OFF” (fig.15).
-
ompressor may stop suddenly. In this case, the thermal protection of the motor may have tripped. The compressor powered at (V. 230) is equipped with an INTERNAL AUTOMATICALLY REARMING thermal protection switch; if it trips, bring the ON/OFF switch to the OFF position, wait a few minutes and restart.
-
MOTOR PROTECTION DEVICES (fig.18)
The compressor may stop suddenly. In this case, with an EXTERNAL automatically rearming thermal protection switch; if it trips, bring the ON/OFF switch to the OFF position, wait a few minutes BEFORE PRESSING THE RESET BUTTON and restart work.
If the protection trips again after restarting, you are advised to switch off the compressor, detach the electrical power supply and contact an authorised service centre.
