Setting up your RovAir Compressor
1) The cover must be removed. Before removing,
make sure the compressor is not connected to an
active electrical outlet. Start by removing each of
the 13 phillips head screws, with a phillips head
screwdriver turning them counter-clockwise (g. 1).
Once all screws are removed, lift the cover o󰀨 of
the unit.
2) Locate the adjustment window on the power
converter. (g. 2a) Using an allen key, move the
switch to the 220V position. (g. 2b)
3) Replace the cover on the unit, and reinstall the
13 phillips head screws (g. 3)
4) Attach the hose and output lter to the compressor
via the female quick disconnect tting. The end with
the lter should be closest to the compressor (see
image for proper conguration) - (g. 4).
5) Make sure the connection between the female
quick disconnect on the hose and the male
connection on the compressor are tight.

Your RovAir comes pre-set to operate from an 110V outlet. Should you
choose to use the unit with a 220V outlet, complete the following steps.
CAUTION:
Always check and make sure the
collar on the female quick disconnect is in the forward
position and secure on the male tting you are
connecting it to. It is recommended that you check the
connection by attempting to pull the female and male
ends apart while the collar on the female tting is in
the forward position.
!

1) Plug the power cord into the RovAir (g. 1). DO NOT plug
the three prong connector into an active wall outlet yet.
2) Plug the 110V three prong connector into your wall outlet
(g. 2). Once plugged in, the fan on the power converter will
turn on.
NOTE: If connecting to a 220V outlet, an outlet adapter will be necessary to
use the included power cord.
3) Set the desired ll pressure via the dial on the top of the
pressure gauge (g. 3).
4) Close the bleed/pressure release valve by turning it
clockwise until it is tight (g. 4).
5) Connect the output hose to the device you wish to ll via
the female quick disconnect tting (g. 5).
PLEASE NOTE: If you are lling a PCP airgun from empty, you may need to
cock the gun before starting the ll process. Consult the owner's manual of
your airgun for further instructions.
6) Once these steps are complete, move the ON/OFF
switch to the ON (AC) position. The compressor fans

Troubleshooting
Issue - Burst disc failure
- Resolution: Should the burst disc fail
during use of the compressor, depress
the ON/OFF button and make sure the
compressor has stopped. Open the
Pressure Release Valve to let the
remaining air vent from the compressor.
Once you have veried the burst disc
has failed (there will be a hole in it) by
removing the burst disc retention screw
(pictured right), remove the broken burst
disc from the unit. You will nd
additional burst discs in the bag of spare
parts that comes with the compressor.
Install a new burst disc, and re-insert
the burst disc retention screw by turning
clockwise. If you do not have additional
burst discs, contact Air Venturi for
replacement at: 216-220-1180.

In the unlikely event that your compressor malfunctions, DO NOT ATTEMPT
TO FIX THE PROBLEM YOURSELF. Please call Air Venturi’s service line so we
can address any issues or have you return the compressor for repair. Air
Venturi Service Line: 216-220-1180
Issue - Compressor will not start
- Resolution: Make sure the compressor is plugged into a functional electrical
outlet, and verify the plug into the wall and compressor are both properly
connected.
Issue - Compressor is not building pressure
- Resolution: Make sure the pressure release valve is closed. It should be hand
tightened. If closed and the compressor is still not building pressure, contact
Air Venturi by calling: 216-220-1180.
Issue - Compressor shuts o󰀨 within 10 seconds of starting a ll
- Resolution: Start the ll with the bleed valve open, once the compressor has run
for a few seconds, close the bleed valve and your compressor should run normally.
If this does not resolve the issue, contact Air Venturi by calling: 216-220-1180.
Issue - Compressor shuts o󰀨 before reaching desired pressure.
- Resolution: Make sure the Output Pressure Dial (Auto Shut O) is set properly.
