PREPARATION
INITIAL SET-UP:
1. Read safety warnings before setting-up air compressor.
LOCATION:
CAUTION
In order to avoid damaging the air compressor,do not incline the air compressor
transversely or longitudinally more than 10˚.
1. Place air compressor at least 30 cm 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

combustible materials.Whenusing the air compressorforspraypainting,placethe
aircompressor as far away Ifrom thework areaaspossible,usingextra airhosesinsteadof
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 shockor electrocution.Check withaqualified 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 agrounding 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. SENCO® DOES NOT RECOMMEND THE USE OF EXTENSION CORDS as this can create power loss and
overheating of the motor.Useofanadditional air hose is recommended rather than an extension cord. If use ofan
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 12AWG
Up to 30 meters 10AWG
Up to 50 meters 8AWG
Up to 75 meters 6AWG
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 notuse damaged extension cords.Examine extension cord before usingand replaceif 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.
Ensure the oil levelis above the minimum notch and belowthe maximum notch on the dipstick. If low, add
compressor pump oil.

OPERATION
PRE-START CHECKLIST:
1. Remove any moisture in the air compressor air tank. Remove excessive pressure with an air tool, then open
the air tank drain valve in the bottom of the air tank. Close tightly when drained.
WARNING: Risk of bodily injury. NEVER attempt to open the drain valve when
more than 0.7 bar of air pressure is in the air tank!
2. Make sure the air compressor Motor Switch is in the OFF (0) position.
3. Make sure all safety valves are working correctly.
4. Make sure all guards and covers are in place and securely mounted.
START-UP:
1. Ensure the lever on the pressure switch box is in the OFF (0) position.
2. Plug the power cord into a grounded outlet.
3. Move the lever on the pressure switch box to the On (1) position.
4.AUTOOPERATION: The ON position will allow the air compressor to STARTbuilding
uppressure in theairtanksand STOP when correctpressureis achieved. Whenpressuredrops with usage,
the air compressor will STARTbuilding up pressure again.
5. Set pressure by adjusting the pressure regulator knob counterclockwise for less pressure and clockwise for
more pressure.
6. If you notice any unusual noise or vibration, stop the air compressor and refer to Troubleshooting .
SHUTDOWN:
1.To stop the air compressor, move the lever on the pressure switch box to the OFF (0) position. NEVER
stop theair compressor by unplugging it from the power source. This could result in risk of electrocution.
2. Drain air from theair tank by releasing air withan attached air toolor by pulling onthe safety relief valve ring.
3. Once pressure in the air tanks register under 0.7 bar, open the drain valve under each air tank to drain any
moisture.
4. Allow the air compressor to cool down.
5. Wipe air compressor clean and store in a safe, non-freezing area.
MAINTENANCE
Read the instruction manual before performing maintenance. The following procedures must be performed when
stopping the air compressor for maintenance or service.
1. Turn offair compressor.
WARNING: Never assume the air compressor is safe to work on just because it is not
operating. It could restart at any time!
2. Disconnect cord from main power supply.
3. Open all drains.
4. Wait for the air compressor to cool before starting service.

LISEZ TOUTES LES MISES EN GARDE DE SÉCURITÉ AVANTD’UTILISER LE
COMPRESSEUR D’AIR
MISES EN GARDE DE SÉCURITÉ
Des blessures graves ou
mortelles peuvent arriver si le
compresseur n’est pas mis à la
terre de façon convenable.Votre
compresseur d’air est alimenté de
l’électricité et cela peut provoquer
une commotion électrique ou une
électrocution si l’utilisation n’est
pas correcte.
Une commotion électrique peut
venir du cordon secteur.
Une commotion électrique peut
arriver si le compresseur n’est
pas utilisé correctement.
Des blessures graves ou
mortelles peuvent arriver si des
réparations électriques sont
tentées par des personnes non
qualifiées.
Assurez-vous que compresseur d’air est
bien branché sur une prise secteur
convenablement reliée à la terre,qui
fournit la tension correcte,et qui est
protégée en amont par fusible ou
disjoncteur.
Vérifiez le cordon secteur pour y déceler
des signes d’écrasement, de coupure ou
de brûlure.Remplacez le cordon s’il est
abîmé avant toute nouvelle utilisation.
Gardez toutes les connexions au sec et
ne reposant pas par terre.Ne laissez pas
le cordon secteur traîner dans l’eau ou
dans une position telle que de l’eau
puisse venir à son contact. Ne touchez
pas la fiche secteur avec des mains
mouillées.
Ne tirez pas sur le cordon secteur pour
débrancher la fiche de la prise murale.
Ne faites jamais fonctionner le
compresseur d’air dans des conditions
d’humidité ou à l’extérieur quand il pleut.
Ne faites jamais fonctionner le
compresseur d’air avec ses couvercles
et protections de sécurité enlevés.
Tout câblage ou dépannage électrique
effectué sur le compresseur d’air doit
être confié à un personnel de dépannage
agréé, en conformité avec les
réglementations électriques locales et
nationales.
Avant d’ouvrir toute partie électrique
fermée,arrêtez toujours le compresseur
d’air, faites chuter la pression et
débranchez l’appareil de sa prise
secteur. Laissez le compresseur d’air
refroidir. Ne présumez jamais que vous
pouvez intervenir en sécurité sur le
compresseur d’air juste parce qu’il ne
tourne pas. Il pourrait redémarrer
inopinément!
