1. SAFETY
1.1. ELECTRICAL SAFETY
WARNING! It is the responsibility of the owner and the operator to read, understand and comply with the following: You must check
all electrical products, before use, to ensure that they are safe. You must inspect power cables, plugs, sockets and any other connectors
for wear or damage. You must ensure that the risk of electric shock is minimised by the installation of appropriate safety devices.
A Residual Current Circuit Breaker (RCCB) should be incorporated in the main distribution board. We also recommend that a Residual
Current Device (RCD) is used. It is particularly important to use an RCD with portable products that are plugged into a supply which is
not protected by an RCCB. If in any doubt consult a qualified electrician. You may obtain a Residual Current Device by contacting your
Sealey dealer. You must also read and understand the following instructions concerning electrical safety.
1.1.1. The Electricity at Work Act 1989 requires that all portable electrical appliances, if used on business premises, are tested
by a qualified electrician, using a Portable Appliance Tester (PAT), at least once a year.
1.1.2. The Health & Safety at Work Act 1974 makes owners of electrical appliances responsible for the safe condition of those
appliances and the safety of the appliance operators. If in any doubt about electrical safety, contact a qualified electrician.
1.1.3. Ensure that the insulation on all cables and on the appliance is safe before connecting it to the power supply. See 1.1.1. and use a
Portable Appliance Tester.
1.1.4. Ensure that cables are always protected against short circuit and overload.
1.1.5. Regularly inspect power supply cables and plugs for wear or damage and check all connections to ensure
that none is loose.
1.1.6. IMPORTANT: Ensure that the voltage marked on the appliance matches the power supply to be used and
that the plug is fitted with the correct fuse - see fuse rating at right.
8DO NOT pull or carry the appliance by the power cable.
8DO NOT pull the plug from the socket by the cable.

5. OPERATION
WARNING! Ensure that you have read, understood and applied Section 1 Safety Instructions.
5.1. Makesurethatthemainswitch(fig.3)is‘Off’(up).
5.2. Ensure that the tank drain valve is closed. (See fig.4).
5.3. Close the outlet pressure regulator by turning the knob clockwise (See fig.2).
5.4. Connect the air tool required to the compressor via an air line connected to the air outlet (See fig.2).
5.5.  PlugthemainscableintothemainssupplyandstartthecompressorbysettingtheAuto-On/OfftotheAuto-Onpositioni.e.horizontal.
5.6. Allow the pressure in the tank to rise to the maximum at which point the compressor will automatically cut out. Tank pressure is shown
on the larger gauge (fig.2).
5.7. Begin to gradually open the regulator by turning the knob anticlockwise until the small gauge registers the required operating pressure
specified for the tool to be used. Always adjust up to the required pressure rather than down from a higher pressure. The required
setting, once achieved, can be locked by screwing the locking ring (See fig.2) up tight underneath the adjusting knob.
5.8. You can now begin to use the tool. The compressor will operate automatically cutting in and out as required to restore the air pressure
in the tank. The pressure switch (fig.2) stops the motor when the maximum tank pressure is reached and restarts it when pressure
falls below the minimum threshold - approx. 2 bar (29psi) less than the maximum pressure.
NOTE: a) If the motor does not cut in and out, but runs continuously when using an air appliance, the capacity of the compressor may
be too small for the appliance.
b) The main gauge (fig.2) indicates the pressure inside the main tank, NOT the pressure supplied to the air equipment, which is shown
on the smaller gauge (fig.2). Should the pressure in the main tank exceed the pre-set switch (fig.2) maximum, the pressure relief valve
(fig.3) will activate.

WARNING! For this reason DO NOT tamper with, or adjust, the switch or the safety valve. When the compressor is not being used set
the regulated pressure to zero so as to avoid damaging the pressure regulator.
5.9. TostopthecompressorpushtheAuto-on/Offlevertotheuprightposition(fig.3).Whenthecompressorstopstherewillbeawhistling
sound as compressed air is vented from the compressor head. DO NOT, other than in an emergency, stop the compressor by switching
off the mains power, or by pulling the plug out, as the pressure relief will not then occur and motor damage may result upon restart. When
you have finished using the compressor unplug the unit from the mains power supply.
5.10. Set the outlet pressure on the regulator to zero. Remove the air line and air tool.
5.11. The tank must now be drained. This will release the air left in the tank and drain away condensation that may have formed within the tank.
 Chooseasuitablelocationforthisoperationand/ormakeprovisiontocollectthecondensation.Wear ear and eye protection. Open
the tank drain valve (See fig.4) slowly allowing air and moisture to bleed from the tank. After bleeding close the drain valve to prevent
debris building up in the valve.
WARNING! Water that is allowed to remain in the tank during storage will corrode and weaken the air tank which could cause
the tank to rupture. To avoid serious injury drain the tank after each use or daily.
5.12. SAFETY FEATURES
Thermal cut out: If the unit overheats the thermal cut out will operate and shut the unit down. The thermal cut out will automatically
reset when the unit has cooled down which may take up to 30 minutes.
6. MAINTENANCE
WARNING! Before performing any maintenance operation, switch off the compressor, disconnect from electricity supply and release all
air from the tank. In order to keep the compressor in good working condition, periodical maintenance is essential.
6.1. Operations to be carried out daily:
a) Drain condensation by opening the valve located under the tank. Place a container under the valve and open the valve by turning anti-
clockwise. See fig.1.
6.2. Operations to be carried out every 100 hours (or more frequently, if the compressor operates in a very dusty atmosphere):
a) Check the automatic cut-out at max. pressure and the automatic cut-in at 2 bar below.
b) Check the condition of the air filter. If necessary remove the filter element (fig.6) and clean by blowing through, with an air line at low
pressure from the clean side or wash in soapy water, rinse and dry. DO NOT operate the compressor without the filter as foreign bodies
or dust could seriously damage the pump.
6.3. Operations to be carried out every 500 hours:
a) Replace air filter.
b) Check all tube fittings and electrical connections.
Inspection of pressure tank both inside and out. Under the PRESSURE SYSTEMS REGULATIONS 2000 it is the responsibility of the
owner of the compressor to initiate a system of inspection that both defines the frequency of the inspection and appoints a person who
has specific responsibility for carrying out the inspection.
IMPORTANT! Failure to carry out maintenance tasks may invalidate the warranty on your compressor.
