If your compressor does not start

•  Check that you have plugged the power lead into a 

standard 240V 10Amp power point and turned the 
switch ON.

•  Check that you have turned the air compressor ON/OFF 

button ON.

•  The air tank may be full.  Use your air tool and the air 

compressor should start when the pressure decreases 
to 85PSI.

If your compressor does not build  
up pressure

•  Check that the tank drain tap is sealed.

If your compressor smells like burnt oil

•  Check the oil level as it may be low
•  Compressor is being used beyond its 75% duty 

cycle. Allow to cool for 30 minutes before reusing 
compressor. Stay within the 75% duty cycle (refer to 
pages 5 and 8).

If these tips do not work please have your unit checked by 
an authorised service centre.
