11. (Fig.D) Open the drain cock to discharge 

all the compressed air and water in the air 
tank.

If you found any abnormalities in the check-
up or inspection prior to the operation, send 
the machine to your dealer or authorized 
service facility for inspection or repair.

Operating Procedure

Before operating the machine, be sure to carry 
out the "Inspection and checkup prior to opera-
tion" described on page 13.

1. Fully open the drain cock and turn the 

power switch on. The buzzer will sound 
with a beep at the same time.

For buzzer sounding patterns, see 
page 16.
After the operation has started, close the 
drain cock tight to increase the pressure.

2. (Fig.I) After confirming the operation has 

stopped due to the increased pressure, 
turn the adjustment handle of the pres-
sure-reduction valve to adjust the operat-
ing pressure of the nailer and pneumatic 
tool to the appropriate level. When ad-
justing the pressure, turn the pressure-
reduction valve's adjustment handle 
counterclockwise to set the pressure at a 
level lower than the appropriate value by 
2 bars once. Then proceed to the adjust-
ment while increasing the pressure by 
turning the handle clockwise.

Make sure to start the adjustment at a level 
lower than the appropriate pressure and 
continue the adjustment while increasing 
the pressure from that level upward. If you 
start the adjustment from a level higher 
than the appropriate value, an error results 
between the pressure gauge value and ac-
tually used pressure. (Due to Characteris-
tics of pressure-reduction valve 
respectively)

2 pressure-reduction valves provided on 
this machine allow you to connect MAX 

 and the general-purpose nailer or 

pneumatic tool.
<Pressure-reduction valve H>   Allows 
connection and use of MAX PowerLite 
tools (of operating pressure of 24.5 bars 
maximum)
<Pressure-reduction valve L>   Allows con-
nection and use of the general-purpose 
nailers or pneumatic tools (of operating 
pressure of 8.3 bars maximum)

You must observe the specified operating 
air pressure for the nailers and pneumatic 
tools.
Using a nailer or pneumatic tool without ad-
justing the supply pressure with the reduc-
tion valve can seriously degrade their 
performance, induce their premature aging 
or damage them.

Using a nailer or pneumatic tool at an inappro-
priate pressure level (at an unnecessary high 
pressure) increases their air consumption, po-
tentially degrading their capability in continu-
ous work. Be sure to use them at the 
appropriate pressure.

3. (Fig.J) After you have finished with the 

adjustment of supply pressure, you can 
start the operation by connecting the air 
hose to the air outlet (air chuck).

4. Connect the high pressure hose to the 

high pressure air hose for MAX PowerLite 
tools to the high pressure air chuck on 
the H side of the pressure-reduction 
valve.

Connect the air hose for the general-purpose 
nailer to the air chuck on the L side of the 
pressure-reduction valve.

The air chuck is the one-touch type, allow-
ing you to connect the air plug to the air 
chuck just by pushing in.

Before connecting the air hose to this com-
pressor, make sure that the air hose and 
hose fixture are firmly secured.

SWITCHING MECHANISM

Operation mode switching on this machine is 
carried out by the selector switch. Select a 
desired mode from those listed in the table 
on page 12 according to the given applica-
tion.
