8. POSSIBLE FAULTS AND RELATED PERMITTED REMEDIES
FAULT
CAUSE
REMEDY
Reduction of performance.
Frequent start-up.
Low pressure values.
Excessive performance
request, check for any
leaks from the couplings
and/or pipes. Intake filter
may be clogged.
Replace the seals of the
fitting, clean or replace
the filter.
The compressor stops and
restarts automatically after
a few minutes.
Tripping of the thermal
cutout due to overheating of
the motor.
Clean the air ducts in the
conveyor. Ventilate
the work area.
After a few attempts to
restart, the compressor
stops.
Tripping of the thermal
cutout due to overheating of
the motor (removal of the
plug with the compressor
running, low power
voltage).
Activate the on/off switch.
Ventilate the work area.
Wait a few minutes. The
compressor will restart
independently. Remove any
power cable extensions.
The compressor does not
stop and the safety valve
is tripped.
Irregular functioning of the
compressor or breakage of
the pressure switch.
Remove the plug and con-
tact the Service Center.
Any other type of operation must be carried out by authorized Service
Centers, requesting original parts. Tampering with the machine may im-
pair its safety and in any case make the warranty null and void.
•
When the upper calibration value (set by the manufacturer) has been
reached, the compressor stops. When air is used, the compressor re-
starts automatically when the lower calibration value is reached (2 bar
between upper and lower).
•
The pressure in the receiver can be checked on the gauge provided.
•
The compressor continues to operate according to this automatic cycle
until the I/O switch is turned.
•
Always wait at least 10 seconds from when the compressor has been
switched off before restarting this.
•
All compressors are fitted with a pressure reducer (ref. 7). Operating on
the knob with the tap open (turning it in a clockwise direction to incre-
ase the pressure and in a counterclockwise direction to reduce it), air
pressure can be regulated so as to optimize use of pneumatic tools.
•
The value set can be checked on the gauge (ref. 6).
•
The set pressure can be taken from the quicklock coupling (ref. 5).
•
Please check that the air consumption and the maximum working
pressure of the pneumatic tool to be used are compatible with the
pressure set on the pressure regulator and with the amount of air sup-
plied by the compressor.
•
Always pull out the plug and drain the receiver once you have completed
your work.
•
This compressor has a 20 to 80 work cycle. This means that active work
of compressor (pumping air into the air tank up to desired pressure level)
should be 20% of total time of compressor exploatation. For example - If
pumping of air tank lasts two minutes, then next pumping should take
place at least 8 minutes later.
4. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
WARNING!
Pull the power plug before doing any cleaning and maintenance work on
the appliance.
WARNING!
Wait until the compressor has completely cooled down. Risk of burns!
WARNING!
Always depressurize the tank before carrying out any cleaning and ma-
intenance work.
Never clean the machine and its components with solvents, flammable or
toxic liquids. Us only a damp cloth making sure you have unplugged the
compressor from the current outlet.
After approx. 2 hours of use, the condensate that has formed must be
drained from the receiver. First of all, vent all the air using the accessory
connected, as described above.
The condensation water must be drained off each day by opening the drain
valve (ref. 11 - Fig. 7-9 depending on the compressor model) (on the bot-
tom of the pressure vessel).
WARNING!
If the water that condenses is not drained, it may corrode the receiver,
reducing its capacity and impairing safety.
As it is a contaminating product, condensate must be DISPOSED of in
accordance with laws on protection of the environment and current le-
gislation.
5. STORAGE
Pull the mains plug out of the socket and ventilate the appliance and all
connected pneumatic tools. Switch off the compressor and make sure
that it is secured in such a way that it cannot be started up again by any
unauthorized person.
6. DISPOSAL
The compressor must be disposed in conformity with the methods provi-
ded for by local regulations.
7. WARRANTY AND REPAIR
In the event of defective goods or requirements for spare parts, kindly con-
tact the sales point where you made your purchase.
