4.1. Remove compressor from packaging and inspect for any shortages or damage. If anything is found to be missing or damaged contact
your supplier.
4.2. Save the packing material for future transportation of the compressor. We recommend that you store the packing in a safe location, at
least for the period of the guarantee. Then, if necessary, it will be easier to send the compressor to the service centre.
4.3. The compressor should be operated on a flat surface, or one that does not exceed 10° either transversely or longitudinally (fig.1) and
should be in a position that allows good air circulation around the unit (at least a 100cm gap).
4.4. Check oil level, consulting the reference marks on the stick (fig.2 + fig.2a) or the oil level inspection window depending on model
Use only synthetic oil (see maintenance section for oil specification).
4.5. Confirm the mains voltage corresponds with the voltage shown on compressor data plate.
Have a qualified electrician wire in accordance with Section 1.1. and check that the motor operates in the correct direction.
SAC62710B.V2 has a control box which requires mounting to a suitable wall and connecting to the mains by a qualified electrician.
4.6. When fully installed, start the compressor and ensure that everything is in good working order before operational use. Check the
direction of rotation (see arrow on motor) to confirm correct wiring of 3-phase plug. Re-check oil levels.
Heavy-duty 3-phase compressors suitable for the professional workshop. Two stage pump system coupled with a 3ph motor maximises
performance to keep running costs low compared to single stage single phase models. Pumps feature heavy-duty full cast cylinders, capped
by alloy heads for improved heat dissipation and long life. Heavy-duty drive guards protect belt and flywheel that is designed to force air over
the pump to aid cooling. Model No’s SACV42755B and SACV52775B have 270ltr vertical space saving tanks without compromising on
volume.

WARNING! Ensure that you have read, understood and apply Section 1 safety instructions.
IMPORTANT! The use of extension leads to connect these compressors to the mains is not recommended as the resulting voltage
drop reduces motor, and therefore pump performance which may cause damage to your compressor.
NOTE: Take care when selecting tools for use with the compressor. Air tool manufacturers normally express the volume of air required to
operate a tool in cubic feet per minute (cfm). This refers to free air delivered by the compressor (‘air out’) which varies according to the
pressure setting. DO NOT confuse this with the compressor displacement which is the air taken in by the compressor (‘air in’). ‘Air out’
is always less than ‘air in’ due to losses within the compressor.
5.1. STARTING THE COMPRESSOR (SAC42055B.V2 & SAC52775B.V2)
5.1.1 Check that the ON/OFF switch (fig.3.1) is OFF in the "O" position.
5.1.2 Plug mains lead into mains supply and start the compressor by moving the pressure switch to the ON ‘I’ position. Check the direction
of rotation (see arrow on belt cage) to confirm correct wiring of 3-phase plug.
5.1.3 When starting the compressor for the first time, leave it running with no air tools connected to the air outlet. Make sure that pressure in
the tank rises and that the compressor stops automatically when the maximum pressure value allowed - written on the plate and
shown on the gauge is achieved. The compressor will now operate automatically.
The pressure switch stops the motor when the maximum tank pressure is reached and restarts it when the pressure falls below the
minimum threshold - approx. 2bar (29psi) less than the maximum pressure.
5.1.4 Stop the compressor by moving the pressure switch (fig.3.1) to the "O" position. The compressed air inside the compressor
head will flow out, making the restart easier and preventing the motor from being damaged.
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 operate and motor damage may result upon restart.
When the compressor runs correctly and is stopped correctly there will be:
(a) a whistle of compressed air when the motor stops.
(b) a protracted whistle (about 20-25 seconds) when the compressor starts with no pressure in the tank.
5.2. STARTING THE COMPRESSOR (SAC62710B.V2)
5.2.1 Turn the pressure switch (fig.3.1) to the "I" position. Turn the Isolation Switch (fig.4) to the "I" position, power on is signalled by the
indicator light. Press the "on" button (fig.4) to start the compressor. Check the direction of rotation (see arrow on belt cage) to
confirm correct wiring of 3-phase plug..
5.2.2 Stop the compressor by turning the Isolation Switch (fig.4) to the "0" position. The compressed air inside the compressor head
will flow out, making the restart easier and preventing the motor from being damaged.
DO NOT other than in an emergency,stop the compressor by switching off the mains power as the pressure relief will not then
operate and motor damage may result upon restart.
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 equipment or tool.
b) The gauge (fig.3.2) indicates the pressure inside the main tank, NOT the pressure supplied to the air equipment. Should the
pressure in the main tank exceed the pre-set switch maximum, a safety valve will activate.
WARNING! For this reason DO NOT tamper with, or adjust, the switch or safety valve.
