1. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
All users must read and fully understand all information
contained in this owner's manual before assembling, operating,
or maintaining this air compressor.
Carefully review the following rules for safe operation and fully
understand all warnings.
An ACOUSTIC PRESSURE value of 4 m. corresponds to the
ACOUSTIC POWER value stated on the yellow label located on
the compressor, minus 20 dB.
This symbol indicates warnings to be read before using
the product so as to prevent injury to the user.
Warning!
Compressed air is a potentially dangerous form of energy; always
take great care when using the compressor and its accessories.
Warning!
The compressor may restart when power is restored following
a blackout.
BEFORE USE
● The compressor must be used in a suitable environment (well
ventilated with an ambient temperature of between +5°C and
+40°C) and never in places affected by dust, acids, vapours,
explosive or flammable gases.
● Always maintain a safety distance of at least 4 meters between the
compressor and the work area.
● Any coloring of the shroud of the compressor (for models envisaging
this) during painting operations indicates that the distance is too short.
● Insert the plug of the electric cable in a socket of suitable shape,
voltage and frequency complying with current regulations.
● Use extension cables with a maximum length of 5 meters and of
suitable cross-section.
● The use of extension cables of different length and also of adapters
and multiple sockets should be avoided.
● If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer,
its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
● Always use the switch I/O to switch off the compressor.
● Always use the handle to move the compressor.
● Always disconnect power cord and air hose from the air compressor
before transporting.
● When operating, the compressor must be placed on a stable,
horizontal surface.
GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
● Never direct the jet of air towards persons, animals or your body.
(Always wear safety goggles to protect your eyes against flying objects
that may be lifted by the jet of air).
● Never direct the jet of liquids sprayed by tools connected to the
compressor towards the compressor.
● Never use the appliance with bare feet or wet hands or feet.
● Never pull the power cable to disconnect the plug from the socket or
to move the compressor.
● Never leave the appliance exposed to adverse weather conditions.
● Never transport the compressor with the receiver under pressure.
● Do not weld or machine the receiver. In the case of faults or rusting,
replace the entire receiver.
● Never allow inexpert persons to use the compressor. Keep children
and animals at a distance from the work area.
14
● This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children)
with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of
experience and knowledge.
● Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with
the appliance.
● Do not position flammable or Nylon®/fabric objects closed to and/
or on the compressor.
● Never clean the compressor with flammable liquids or solvents.
Check that you have unplugged the compressor and clean with a
damp cloth only.
● The compressor must be used only for air compression. Do not use
the compressor for any other type of gas.
● The compressed air produced by the compressor cannot not be used
for pharmaceutical, food or medical purposes except after particular
treatments and cannot be used to fill the air bottles of scuba divers.
● Pay attention to the work being carried out. Use common sense.
Do not stand on the compressor. Do not allow the compressor to
operate unattended.
OPERATION
● To avoid overheating of the electric motor, this compressor is
designed for intermittent operation as indicated on the technical
dataplate (for example, S3 25 % means 2.5 minutes ON, 7.5 minutes
OFF). In the case of overheating, the thermal cutout of the motor
trips, automatically cutting off the power when the temperature is
too high. The motor restarts automatically when normal temperature
conditions are restored.
● When the compressor is plugged into an electrical source and
the I/O switch is in the "ON" position, this compressor will
cycle automatically.
– Never touch any moving parts.
– Keep all body parts, hair, clothing, and jewelry away from moving
parts.
– Never operate the air compressor without all guards and shrouds
in place.
– Never stand on the compressor.
● The compressor is fitted with a safety valve that is tripped in the case of
malfunctioning of the pressure switch in order to assure machine safety.
● The red notch on the pressure gauge refers to the maximum operating
pressure of the tank. It does not refer to the adjusted pressure.
● When fitting a tool, the flow of air in output must be switched off.
● When using compressed air, you must know and comply with
the safety precautions to be adopted for each type of application
(inflation, pneumatic tools, painting, washing with water-based
detergents only, etc.).
● Never exceed the maximum allowable pressure recommended by
the manufacturer of any attachment or accessory you use with this
compressor.
● Please check that the air consumption and the maximum working
pressure of the pneumatic tool and connection pipes (with the
compressor) to be used, are compatible with the pressure set on
the pressure regulator and with the amount of air supplied by the
compressor.
● The compressor's performance is guaranteed for operation between
0 and 1000 meters above the sea level.
