COMPRESSOR FEATURES
1) MOTOR/PRESSURE SWITCH:This switch is used to start or stop the air
compressor. Moving the switch to the On (1) position will provide automatic
power to the pressure switch which will allow the motor to start when the air tank
pressure is below the factory set cut-in pressure. When in the On (1),
the pressure switch stops the motor when the air tank pressure reaches the factor
set cut-out pressure. For safety purposes, this switch also has a pressure release
valve located on the side of the switch designed to automatically release compressed
air from the air compressor pump head and its discharge line when the air compressor
reaches cut-out pressure or is shut off. This allows the motor to restart freely. Moving
the switch to the Off position will remove power from the pressure switch and stop
the air compressor.
2) MOTOR THERMAL OVERLOAD:The electric motor has a thermal
overload protector. If the motor overheats for any reason, the thermal overload will
cut off power, thus preventing the motor from being damaged. Wait until the motor is
cool. Motor also has a magnetic breaker. Reset switch if it is tripped.
3) AIR INTAKE FILTER: This filter is designed to clean air coming into the pump. To
ensure the pump continually receives a clean, cool, dry air supply this filter must
always be clean and ventilation opening free from obstructions. The filter can be
removed for cleaning by using warm, soapy water. Rinse the filter and air dry.
4) AIR COMPRESSOR PUMP: To compress air, the piston moves up and down in
the cylinder. On the downstroke, air is drawn in through the air intake valve while
the exhaust valve remains closed. On the upstroke, air is compressed, the intake
valve closes and compressed air is forced out through the exhaust valve, into the
discharge line, through the check valve and into the air tank.
5) SAFETY RELIEF VALVE: This valve is designed to prevent system failures by
relieving pressure from the system when the compressed air reaches a predetermined
level. The valve is preset by the manufacturer and must not be modified in any way.
To verify the valve is working properly, pull on the ring. Air pressure should escape.
When the ring is released, it will reseat.
6) AIR TANK DRAIN VALVE: The drain valve is used to remove moisture from the air
tank(s) after the air compressor is shut off. NEVER attempt to open the drain valve
when more than 0.7 bar of air pressure is in the air tank!To open the drain valve,
turn the knob counterclockwise. Tilt tank to ensure that all condensation drains
through valve.
7) AIR TANK PRESSURE GAUGE: The air tank pressure gauge indicates the
reserve air pressure in the air tank (s).
8) OUTLET PRESSURE GAUGE: The outlet pressure gauge indicates the air
pressure available at the outlet side of the regulator. This pressure is controlled
by the regulator and is always less or equal to the air tank pressure.
9) PRESSURE REGULATOR:The air pressure coming from the air tank is
controlled by the regulator knob. Turn the pressure regulation knob clockwise to
increase discharge pressure, and counterclockwise to decrease discharge
pressure.
10) DISCHARGE LINE: Please note that the discharge line is very hot.
HOT SURFACES: Do not remove protective shroud. High temperature after
sustained use.

transversely or longitudinally more than 10°.
1. Place air compressor at least 30cm away from obstacles that may prevent proper ventilation.
Do not place air compressor in an area:
-where there is evidence of oil or gas leaks.
-where flammable gas vapors or materials may be present.
WARNING
Serious injury or death may occur if electrical sparks from motor and pressure switch
come in contact with flammable vapors, combustible dust, gases or other
combustible materials. When using the air compressor for spray painting, place the
air compressor as far away I from the work area as possible, using extra air hoses instead of
extension cords.
-where air temperatures fall below 0°C or exceed 40°C .
-where extremely dirty air or water could be drawn into the air compressor.
ELECTRICAL:
DANGER
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk
of shock or electrocution. Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel
if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. Do not use any type of
adapter with this product. If repair or replacement of the cord or plug is necessary, do not
connect the grounding wire to either flat blade terminal. The wire with insulation having
an outer surface that is green with or without yellow stripes is the grounding wire.
WARNING
This product must be grounded. If there should be a malfunction or breakdown,
grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the
risk of electric shock. This product is equipped with a cord having an equipment-
grounding conductor and a grounding type plug. The plug must be plugged into an
appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local
codes and ordinances.
1. DOES NOT RECOMMEND THE USE OF EXTENSION CORDS as this can create power loss and
overheating of the motor. Use of an additional air hose is recommended rather than an extension cord. If use of an
extension cord is unavoidable, it should be plugged into a GFCI found in circuit boxes or protected receptacles.
When using an extension cord, observe the following:
Cable Length Wire Gauge
Up to 8 meters 12 AWG
Up to 30 meters 10 AWG
Up to 50 meters 8 AWG
Up to 75 meters 6 AWG
Use only 3-blade extension cords that have 3-blade grounding-type plugs and 3-slot cord connectors that will
accept the plug from the product. Use only extension cords having an electrical rating not less than the rating of
the product. Do not use damaged extension cords. Examine extension cord before using and replace if damaged.
Do not abuse extension cord and do not yank on any cord to disconnect. Keep cord away from heat and sharp
edges. Always shut off the air compressor switch before removing the plug from the receptacle.

Verletzungen, eventuell mit
Todesfolge, kommen, wenn ein
Druckluftbehälter explodiert, weil
die Druckluftbehälter nicht
ordnungsgemäß gewartet
wurden.
Es kann zu Unfällen mit schweren
Verletzungen, eventuell mit
Todesfolge, durch
Luftkompressorfehlfunktionen
oder explodierende Zubehörteile
kommen, wenn falsche
Systemkomponenten, Anbauteile
oder Zubehörteile verwendet
werden.
VORBEUGENDE MASSNAHMEN
Betreiben Sie den Luftkompressor
stets in einer gut gelüfteten
Umgebung, in der es keinerlei leicht
entzündliche Dämpfe, brennbaren
Staub, Gase oder sonstige
brennbare Materialien gibt.
Wenn leicht entzündliche Materialien
gespritzt werden, muss der
Luftkompressor mindestens 6 Meter
vom Spritzbereich entfernt
aufgestellt werden.
(Unter Umständen ist dazu ein
Verlängerungsschlauch erforderlich.)
Stellen Sie niemals Gegenstände
gegen oder auf den Luftkompressor.
Betreiben Sie den Luftkompressor
mindestens 30 cm entfernt von jeder
Wand bzw. jedem Hindernis, dass
eine ordnungsgemäße Luftzufuhr
blockieren würde.
Lassen Sie den Druckluftbehälter
täglich nach jedem Einsatz des
Luftkompressors ab, um zu
verhindern, dass sich Feuchtigkeit im
Druckluftbehälter ansammelt.
Wenn der Druckluftbehälter leckt,
muss er sofort ausgewechselt
werden. Der Druckluftbehälter oder
seine Anbauteile dürfen niemals
repariert, geschweißt oder modifiziert
werden.
Herstellerseitig eingestellte Druckwerte dürfen
niemals geändert werden.
Der von den Herstellern für die Anbauteile
spezifizierte Höchstdruck-Nennwert darf niemals
überschritten werden.
Verwenden Sie aufgrund möglicher extremer
Wärmeentwicklung keine Kunststoffrohre oder
gelötete Zinkrohrmuffen für die Druckleitung.
Benutzen Sie den Luftkompressor niemals, um
kleine Gegenstände mit niedrigem Druck – z.B.
Spielzeuge – aufzupumpen.
Alle Schläuche und Befestigungen sind
für Aufstellungsortgebrauch mit dem
maximal zulässigen Funktion Druck des
beweglichen Kompressors verwendbar.
