POSITIONING
The compressor is to be placed in a room
which is easy to air, so that dust, sawdust,
gasses or explosive substances do not enter
the air outlet openings, and should moreover
be far from heat releasing devices.
CONNECTION TO THE ELECTRIC
INSTALLATION
Make sure that the voltage of the plug
corresponds to that written on the label and
that the compressor is put to earth in
compliance with the provisions of the
President’s Decree 548.
Connect the electric compressor with the
supplied cable and do not use inadequate
extensions. These might compromise the
correct functioning of thecompressor. Do not
carry out precarious repairs on the cable, or
cut it, and avoid it from being damaged. If the
cable shows signs of wearing out, has to be
replaced with one of the same type.
SETTING IN MOTION
Before putting the compressor into
operation a few
preliminary checks
are to
be carried out (please read carefully the
following instructions):
n
remove the plastic tap from the carter
cover and insert the oil measure spindle
or the oil outflo/inflow tap.
(fig. 1-2)
;
n
remove the plastic tap from the
compressor head and replace it with the
supplied air suction filter
(fig. 1-2)
;
n
if working with a lubricated compressor
check the oil level with the oil measure
spindle (if the level differs from normal,
read the instructions under the title
“Maintenanceinterventions”).Theoillevel
has to be within the MIN. and the MAX.
marks of the spindle
(fig. 3-3.1)
;
n
check the condensation outflow tap
(fig.
4)
;
n
make sure that the button on the air
pressure switch is the “OFF-0” position.

After carrying out the above mentioned
controls, connect the compressor to the
electricinstallationandswitchthebuttononto
the “ON-1” position
(fig. 5)
. To switch off the
compressor push the button to “OFF-0”
position
(fig. 5).
In CHB models the oil level is to be checked
through the transparent tap. The oil level
has to correspond to the red mark on the
tap
(fig. 3.1)
.
WARNING
To switch off the compressor always
use the button on the air pressure
switch; if you switch off the
compressor by unplugging it, the
pressure in the head of the
compressor would be prevented from
flowing out, and this could cause
difficulties when using the
compressor again.
Do not pull the cable to unplug the
compressor and avoid placing the
compressor in cold environments.
It is advisable not to use extensions
of any kind during normal operation
of the compressor.
The functioning of the compressor is
adjusted by the air pressure switch
(fig. 5),
which interrupts network supply when the
pressure inside the tank reaches the set
value (8 bar) and reconnects the
compressor to the system when the
pressure reaches a level 2 bar inferior to
the set maximum level.

OPERATION
whereas the value shown on the
manometer
6.2
refers to the inner tank
pressure;
n
connect the pipe of the machine tool to
be used to the air outlet tap
7.3
and open
the tap.Afterusingthecompressorclose
the tap again.

compressor consists in alternating
running, that is for 60% of the total
time in operation.
n
The electric compressor is
provided with a safety valve adjusted
atapressuresuperiortothe maximum
pressure of the air pressure switch.
It is released in case of malfunction
of the air pressure switch and opens
an outlet for exceeding air
(fig. 7.5)
.
n
The customer is not entitled to
adjust the compressor so that it can
exceed the maximum pressure
written on the tank label.
