SETUP & PREPARATION
ASSEMBLY
WARNING! ENSURE THE TOOL IS TURNED OFF AND DISCONNECTED FROM THE POWER
SUPPLY BEFORE PERFORMING ANY OF THE FOLLOWING OPERATIONS.
The compressor is intended to be used for pneumatic tools with low air
consumption, such as tyre pump nozzles, blower nozzles and paint guns. The
compressor is not suitable for tools with a high air consumption, such as
grinders or impact wrenches.
Pre-Setup Checks
- Examine the machine for signs of transit damage. If damaged, do not use, return to place of purchase
- The compressor should be set up near to the user.
- Avoid long air lines and long supply lines (extensions).
- Make sure the intake air is dry and dust-free.
- Do not set up the compressor in damp or wet rooms. The compressor is designed to be used in dry rooms. It is prohibited to use the compressor in areas where work is conducted with sprayed water.
- Before you use the machine, make sure that the mains voltage complies with the specifications on the rating plate.
- The compressor may only be used in suitable areas (with good ventilation and an ambient temperature from 5°C to 40°C). There must be no dust, acids, vapours, explosive or flammable gases in the room.
Attaching The Support Foot
A #3 Phillips Screwdriver, 10mm & 17mm Spanners are required to assemble the
support foot and wheels.
- Place the supporting foot and then a small washer onto the small bolt. Thread this through the hole in the foot bracket.
- Thread the other small washer and then the spring washer onto the bolt. Secure the assembly with the small nut.
Attaching The Wheels
- Place the large bolt through the wheel and a large washer. Then slide this through the hole in the wheel bracket. Place a large washer then a spring washer onto the bolt and secure this with a large nut.
- Repeat step 1 to fit the second wheel on the opposite side of the tank.
Fitting The Air Filter
- Attach the supplied air filter by screwing it in clockwise.
Connecting An Air Hose to the Compressor
- Pull back the sleeve on the regulated pressure outlet of the compressor and insert the male Nitto end of a suitably rated air hose (not supplied).
- Release the sleeve; the Nitto coupling should click into place.
- Check that the fitting is secure by tugging gently on the connector. If the hose detaches, repeat steps 2 & 3, pushing the Nitto connector firmly into the outlet.
Disconnecting Air Tools
WARNING! ENSURE YOU HAVE A FIRM GRIP ON THE AIR HOSE WHEN DISCONNECTING
IT FROM THE AIR COMPRESSOR, AS PRESSURISED AIR IN THE TANK MAY CAUSE IT TO

- To remove an air tool from the unit, retract the sleeve on the female Nitto fitting and disconnect the air hose from the air compressor.
- Repeat the same procedure with the air tool and air hose.
OPERATION
CONTROLS
WARNING! THE AIR COMPRESSOR MUST BE USED WITH A RESIDUAL CURRENT DEVICE
WITH A RATED RESIDUAL CURRENT OF 30mA OR LESS.
WARNING! DO NOT LEAVE THE AIR COMPRESSOR UNATTENDED WHILE THE ON/OFF
SWITCH IS IN THE ‘ON’ POSITION.
Switching The Compressor On/Off
- To switch the compressor on, pull the on/off switch to the ‘I’ position. Allow the motor to run and the tank to fill up. Note: The compressor will automatically cut off when the tank pressure reaches 8bar and will automatically start up again when the tank pressure drops to 6bar.
- To switch the compressor off, press the on/off switch to the ‘0’ position.
Thermal Overload Protection
This Air Compressor is fitted with thermal protection and will shut off to
protect the compressor from overheating.
The compressor may also have shut off due to reaching max. cut off pressure.
If you are unsure, use an attached blow gun to release some of the pressure
until the tank pressure gauge drops below 6bar. If the motor does not
automatically start up, the unit has overloaded and the thermal protection has
activated.
If the thermal protection activates, switch off the compressor and allow the
compressor to cool down for 15 minutes. Before attempting to restart the
compressor, check that the air filter is not blocked. Refer to the Maintenance
section to clean the air filter.
WARNING! ALLOW THE AIR COMPRESSOR TO COOL BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY
MAINTENANCE.
WARNING! DO NOT CONTINUE USE OF THE UNIT IF THE THERMAL PROTECTION
ACTIVATES AGAIN IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE RESET.
Adjusting The Output Pressure
The output pressure of the regulated pressure outlet can be adjusted to suit
the air tool connected and the task at hand.
- To do so, first decrease the pressure to 0psi by turning the pressure regulator anticlockwise.
- Then turn the pressure regulator clockwise until the desired pressure is shown on the regulated pressure gauge.
WARNING! DO NOT ATTEMPT TO ADJUST/MODIFY THE SAFETY VALVE IN ANY WAY. THE
SAFETY VALVE INSTALLED ON THIS AIR COMPRESSOR IS DESIGNED TO AUTOMATICALLY
RELEASE PRESSURE IN CASE OF EXCESS PRESSURE BUILD UP IN THE TANK.
USAGE
WARNING! BEFORE CONNECTING THE COMPRESSOR TO THE POWER SOURCE, CHECK FOR
BROKEN COMPONENTS AND ACCESSORIES. ALSO CHECK FOR DAMAGE TO THE HOSE. DO NOT
PROCEED IF ANY COMPONENT OR PART SHOWS SIGN OF WEAR OR DAMAGE. REPLACE THE
PART OR TAKE IT TO AN AUTHORISED REPAIRER.
WARNING! ALWAYS MAKE SURE THE COMPRESSOR IS TURNED OFF AND THE TANK
PRESSURE GAUGE SHOWS 0PSI BEFORE OPENING THE DRAIN VALVE.
Starting Up The Compressor
For best practice, the compressor should be run without any load for 20
minutes before first use to lubricate the bearings and piston.This procedure
should also be performed if the compressor has been stored for 6 months or
more without operation.
- Disconnect all air hoses from the outlets and open the drain valve fully to prevent pressurised air buildup in the tank.
- Make sure the power switch is in the off position. Plug the power supply cord into a mains outlet.
- Switch the compressor on and allow it to run for 20 minutes without any loads/tools attached and allow any liquid to drain from the tank.
- Turn off the compressor and close the drain valve. The compressor is now ready for use.
- Attach the desired tool to one end of an air hose and the air hose to the regulated pressure outlet depending on the tool or application.
- Turn the compressor back on and adjust the regulated pressure to the desired level once the pump has shut off and the compressor has reached cutoff pressure (8bar).
Shutting Down The Compressor
Do not turn the air compressor off by unplugging it from the mains power as it
may result in damage to the motor.
-
Turn the compressor off with the on/off switch and then unplug the cord.
-
Attach a blow gun to the compressor and use it to discharge any remaining air in the compressor tank.
-
Rotate the pressure regulator anticlockwise until it is fully closed; check the regulated pressure gauge to ensure that it reads 0psi.
-
Also turn on the air tool to discharge any remaining pressurised air in the air hose.
-
Remove the air hose and any other connected accessories.
WARNING! ALWAYS MAKE SURE THE COMPRESSOR IS TURNED OFF AND THE TANK PRESSURE GAUGE SHOWS 0 PSI BEFORE OPENING THE DRAIN VALVE. TAKE CARE WHEN DISCHARGING AIR THROUGH THE DRAIN VALVE OR AIR OUTLETS. THE DISCHARGED AIR CAN CAUSE DUST, STONES, OR ANY OTHER FOREIGN PARTICLES TO BE BLOWN THROUGH THE AIR AT HIGH PRESSURE. -
When no more air is released, open the drain valve to release any accumulated liquid from the tank.
-
Close the drain valve, allow the compressor to cool down, then clean and store the unit.

APPLIANCE CARE
Draining The Pressure Tank
WARNING! ALWAYS MAKE SURE THE COMPRESSOR IS TURNED OFF AND THE TANK
PRESSURE GAUGE SHOWS 0 PSI BEFORE OPENING THE DRAIN VALVE. TAKE CARE WHEN
DISCHARGING AIR THROUGH THE DRAIN VALVE OR AIR OUTLETS. THE DISCHARGED AIR CAN
CAUSE DUST, STONES, OR ANY OTHER FOREIGN PARTICLES TO BE BLOWN THROUGH THE AIR
AT HIGH PRESSURE.
Air in the compressor tank causes water to accumulate. This must be drained
off frequently to prevent corrosion and damage to the unit. This should be
performed after each use and prior to the next use.
- Turn the drain valve plug clockwise to open it.
- Allow all of the water in the tank to drain out.
- Replace the drain valve plug.
Note: The tank will not pressurise while the drain valve is open.
Cleaning The Air Filters
The air filters prevent dust and dirt being drawn in. It is essential to
clean these filters at least after every 100 hours in service. Clogged air
filters will decrease the erformance of the compressor drastically.
- Allow the compressor to run and build up pressurised air in the tank. Once the motor has stopped running, turn the compressor off and disconnect it from the power supply.
- With an air hose and blow gun connected to the regulated pressure outlet, turn the pressure regulator until the regulated pressure gauge shows a pressure of around 3bar.
- Unscrew the lid of the air filter.
- Remove the paper filter from the housing, tap it and spray it with the blow gun to remove any dirt. Re-insert it into the housing.
- Re-attach the lid.

- Always switch off the compressor before switching off the power or removing the power plug.
- After using the compressor, switch off the on/off button, disconnect the power supply and use a blow gun or similar to release the remaining pressure in the tank.
- Do not attempt to remove any part of the machine whilst it is under pressure.
- Always shut off the compressor and remove the electrical plug from the power supply after use and before servicing.
- Check the maximum pressure rating of any tools or accessories that you intend using with the compressor. The output pressure of the air from the compressor must be regulated so that it never exceeds the rated pressure of the tool or accessory.
- Wear hearing, eye and breathing protection.
- Never apply the outlet air of this compressor directly on to any part of a person’s body. Do not attempt to block the air outlet with your finger or any part of your body.
- The tool must be used only for its prescribed purpose. Any use other than those mentioned in this Manual will be considered a case of misuse. The user and not the manufacturer shall be liable for any damage or injury resulting from such cases of misuse.
- The manufacturer shall not be liable for any changes made to the tool nor for any damage resulting from such changes.
- Even when the tool is used as prescribed it is not possible to eliminate all residual risk factors. The following hazards may arise in connection with the tool’s construction and design:
- Damage to the lungs if an effective breathing mask is not worn.
- Damage to hearing if effective earmuffs are not worn.
- Damage to the eyes if effective safety goggles or shield are not worn.
WARNING! In the event that an air line is cut or broken, the air supply must be turned off at the compressor. A broken air line which is not supported is extremely dangerous and can whip around very quickly, both with the capability of striking people, and blowing foreign particles into the air. Do not attempt to catch the air line but immediately keep bystanders well clear and turn off the air supply to the hose, turn off the compressor at the On / Off button, and then remove the hose from the compressor.
