dampened with soapy water and dry thoroughly.
22. USE ONLY GENUINE REPLACEMENT PARTS
Replacement parts not original may void your warranty and can lead
to malfunction and resulting injuries. Genuine parts are available
from your dealer.
23. DO NOT MODIFY THE COMPRESSOR
Do not modify the compressor.Always contact the authorized service
center any repairs. Unauthorized modification may not only impair
the compressor performance but may also result in accident or injury
to repair personnel who do not have the required knowledge and
technical expertise to perform the repair operations correctly.
24. TURN OFF THE PRESSURE SWITCH WHEN THE COMPRESSOR
IS NOT USED
When the compressor is not used, turn the knob of the pressure
switch OFF, disconnect it from the power source and open the drain
cock to discharge the compressed air from the air tank.
25. NEVER TOUCH HOT SURFACE
To reduce the risk of burns, do not touch tubes, heads, cylinder and
motors.
26. DO NOT DIRECT AIR STREAM AT BODY
Risk of injury, do not direct air stream at persons or animals.
27. DRAIN TANK
Drain tank daily or after 4 hours of use.
Open drain fitting and tilt compressor to empty accumulated water.
28. DO NOT STOP COMPRESSOR BY PULLING OUT THE PLUG
Use the “AUTO/OFF” knob of pressure switch.
29. USE ONLY RECOMMENDED AIR HANDLING PARTS
ACCEPTABLE FOR PRESSURE NOT LESS THAN 125 PSI (8.6
BAR)
Risk of bursting. Use only recommended air handling parts
acceptable for pressures not less than 125 psi (8.6 bar).
REPLACEMENT PARTS
When servicing use only identical replacement parts.
Repairs should be conducted only by authorized service center.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This compressor should be grounded while in use to protect the operator
from electric shock. The compressor is equipped with a three-conductor
cord and three-prong grounding type plug to fit the proper grounding
type receptacle.
The green (or green and yellow) conductor in the cord is the grounding
wire. Never connect the green (or green and yellow) wire to a live terminal.
If your units is for use on less than 150 volts, it has a plug that looks like
that shown in sketch (A) in figure on the right. An adapter, see sketches
(B) and (C), is available for connecting sketch (A) type plugs to two-
prong receptacles. The green-colored rigid ear, lug, or the like extending
from the adapter must be connected to a permanent ground, such as a
properly grounded outlet box.
NOTE:
the grounding adaptor, sketch (C), is prohibited in Canada by
Canadian Electrical Code Part.1. Therefore, the instructions for its use
are not applicable in Canada.
EXTENSION CORD
Use only three-extension cords that have three-prong grounding type
plugs and three-pole receptables that accept the compressor’s plug.
Replace or repair damaged cord. Make sure your extension cord is in
good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy
enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized cord
will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating.
Table shows the correct size to use depending on cord lenght and name
plate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gage. The smaller
the gage number, the heavier the cord.

WARNING
Avoid electrical shock hazard. Never use this compressor with a
damaged or frayed electrical cord or extension cord. Inspect all electrical
cords regularly. Never use in near water or in any environment where
electric shock is possible

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
NOTE:
The information contained in this Instruction Manual is designed
to assist you in the safe operation and maintenance of the compressor.
Some illustrations in this Instruction Manual may show details or
attachments that differ from those on your own compressor.
INSTALLATION
Remove the compressor from its packing (fig.1), makes sure it is in
perfect condition, checking if it was damaged during transport, and carry
out the following operations. Fit the wheels and rubber tab on the tanks
on which they are not already fitted, observing the instructions in fig.2.
In case of infiatable wheels, the maximum inflation pressure must be of
1,6 bar (24 psi). Position the compressor on a flat surface or with a
maximum permissible inclination of 10
°
(fig. 3), in a well aired place,
protected against atmospheric agents and not in a place subject to
explosion hazard. If the surface is inclined and smooth, check if the
compressor moves while in operation – if it does, secure the wheels
with two wedges. If the surface is a bracket or a shelf top, make sure it
cannot fall, securing it in a suitable way. To ensure good ventilation and
efficient cooling, the compressor’s belt guard must be at least 100 cm
from any wall (fig. 4). Compressors fitted on the tank, with fixed feet,
should not be rigidly secured to the ground. In this case, we advise you
to fit 4 anti-vibration supports.
USE INSTRUCTIONS
– Take care to transport the compressor correctly, do not overturn it or
lift it with hooks or ropes (fig. 5 - 6)
– Replace the plastic plug on the guard cover (fig. 7 - 8) with the oil
level stick (fig. 9) or with the relevant breather plug (fig. 10), supplied
with the instructions booklet. Check oil level, consulting the reference
marks on the stick (fig. 9) or the oil level inspection window (fig. 11).
