The replacement belt is similar to (Bosch Style) 13A1230.
Belt tension
Correct belt tension is paramount to a safe and reliable air compressor. Too
tight a belt can cause damage to bearings and premature motor failure. These
failures will not be covered by a warranty. Too loose a belt can cause poor
performance and excess heat due to slippage which can also lead to premature
component failure. This will not be covered by warranty. To check the belt
tension, gently push down midway between the two pulleys the belt should only
move between 10mm – 15mm (Pic. 18). If the belt moves more than this amount
then you will need to tighten the belt. To adjust the belt tension, follow
these simple steps;
- Loosen the motor bolts (Pic. 19).
- Slide the motor forward or backward to the correct position.
- Tighten the motor bolts.
- Check belt tension and repeat if needed.
- If uncertain about attempting the above steps please consult an authorized service agent.
Belt straightness
Belt straightness is paramount to a safe and reliable air compressor. The belt
should always run in a straight line between the two (2) pulleys. If the belt
is on an angle this could cause excessive strain and wear on components. This
will not be covered by warranty. The belt should run parallel to the two
pulleys. If not, adjust. To adjust the belt straightness, follow these simple
steps;
- Loosen the pump bolts (Pic. 20).
- Slide the pump to the appropriate position.
- Tighten the pump bolts.
- Check belt straightness and repeat if needed.
- Check belt tension and correct if necessary.

GENERAL
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Lubrication of air compressor
Check the oil level to ensure the level is to the top of the red dot on the
sight glass; refer to page 5 for complete details and diagram. Failure to do
these may result in damage to the air compressor and/or injury to the user.
Assembly
This air compressor MUST be fully assembled by you prior to use. Failure to do
so will result in the warranty being VOID. Failure to fully assemble this air
compressor may also result in personal injury.
Safety
Before attempting to operate this air compressor the following basic safety
precautions should be taken to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and
personal injury. It is important to read the instruction manual and to
understand applications, limitations, and potential hazards associated with
the air compressor. This air compressor is not intended for use by persons
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or
lack of experience and knowledge unless they have been given supervision or
instruction concerning the use of the appliance by a person responsible for
their safety.
Beware of children and pets
Children and pets should be kept out of the work area. Children should not be
allowed to touch or operate the air compressor, tools, or extension cords.
This air compressor is not designed for use by young children or infirm
persons without supervision. The air compressor and tools should be kept out
of reach of children, preferably stored or locked in a secure cabinet or room
when not in use.
Work area
Work areas and benches should be kept tidy. Cluttered benches and work areas
can cause accidents. Floors should be kept clean and free from rubbish.
Special care should be taken when the floor is slippery due to sawdust or wax.
Always leave sufficient distance, at least 5 metres between the air compressor
and the work area, especially when using tools designed for sanding or
spraying liquids.
Work environment
Do not expose your air compressor to rain, or use in damp or wet conditions.
Keep the work area well lit. Always ensure your air compressor is level and
stable. Using your air compressor on unlevel or unstable ground may cause a
lack of lubrication and the pump to seize, this damage will not be covered
under warranty. Guard against electric shock
Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces (e.g. pipes and
refrigerators).
Do not force air compressors
The air compressor will do a better, safer job and give you much better
service life, if it’s used at the duty cycle for which it was designed. The
duty cycle will only take effect after the initial (1st ) tank fill for the
day. This air compressor’s duty cycle is 75%. Duty cycle is the proportion of
time during which the air compressor is operating compared with not operating.
For example, a 75% duty cycle could mean after 45 seconds of operation, motor
pumping, the air compressor must be left for 15 seconds resting, motor not
pumping. When the motor is pumping the attached air tool can not be used.
Simple way to understand duty cycle is only to use the attached air tool while
the air compressor is not pumping. Stop using the attached tool as soon as the
air compressor starts pumping.
Use the right tool
Select the right tool for the job. Do not use a tool for a job for which it
was not designed. Do not force a small air compressor to do the job of a
heavy-duty air compressor. Do not use the air compressor for purposes not
intended.
Do not abuse power cord
Never yank or pull on the power cord to disconnect it from the mains supply
socket. Never carry or pull your air compressor by its power cord. Keep the
power cord away from heat, oil, solvents, and sharp edges. Regularly check the
plug and cord and if damaged have it replaced by an authorised service
facility.
Extension cords and reels
This air compressor MUST be plugged directly into a 240V AC wall socket. This
air compressor is NOT designed to be run off an extension cord/lead. If you
need extra distance do NOT use an extension cord, USE A LONGER AIR HOSE. The
use of extension cords may cause power voltage loss and will result in damage
to the motor. This will NOT be covered under warranty.
Secure the workpiece
Whenever possible secure the workpiece using clamps or a vice. It is safer
than using your hands or feet and leaves both hands free to control the tool.
Hot components
Beware many of the components will get hot during use. Never touch any of the
metal pipes, pump, or motor as these may burn. Maintain your air compressor
with care Follow the instructions for lubricating and changing accessories.
Check the air compressor power cord periodically and if damaged, have it
replaced by an authorised service facility. Keep handles clean, dry, and free
from oil and grease. Ensure that ventilation slots are kept clean and free
from dust at all times. Blocked ventilation slots or air filter can cause
overheating and damage to the motor and this will not be covered under
warranty.
Disconnect air compressor
Ensure that the air compressor is disconnected from the mains supply when not
in use, before servicing, lubricating, making adjustments, or when changing
any accessories.
Remove adjusting keys and wrenches
Form the habit of always checking to see that any adjusting keys or
wrenches have been removed from the air compressor or attached air tools
before operating. \
Avoid unintentional starting
