WARNING!
For this reason
DO NOT
tamper with, or adjust, the switch or the safety valve. When the compressor is not being used set
the regulated pressure to zero so as to avoid damaging the pressure regulator.
5.9.
To stop the compressor push the Auto-on/Off lever to the upright position (fig.3). When the compressor stops there will be a whistling
sound as compressed air is vented from the compressor head.
DO NOT
, other than in an emergency, stop the compressor by switching
off the mains power, or by pulling the plug out, as the pressure relief will not then occur and motor damage may result upon restart. When
you have finished using the compressor unplug the unit from the mains power supply.
5.10.
Set the outlet pressure on the regulator to zero.
Remove the air line and air tool.
5.11.
The tank must now be drained. This will release the air left in the tank and drain away condensation that may have formed within the tank.
Choose a suitable location for this operation and/or make provision to collect the condensation.
Wear ear and eye protection
. Open
the tank drain valve (See fig.4) slowly allowing air and moisture to bleed from the tank. After bleeding close the drain valve to prevent
debris building up in the valve.
WARNING!
Water that is allowed to remain in the tank during storage will corrode and weaken the air tank which could cause
the tank to rupture. To avoid serious injury drain the tank after each use or daily.
5.12.
SAFETY FEATURES
Thermal cut out:
If the unit overheats the thermal cut out will operate and shut the unit down. The thermal cut out will automatically
reset when the unit has cooled down which may take up to 30 minutes.
6. MAINTENANCE
WARNING!
Before performing any maintenance operation, switch off the compressor, disconnect from electricity supply and release all
air from the tank. In order to keep the compressor in good working condition, periodical maintenance is essential.
6.1.
Operations to be carried out daily:
a) Drain condensation by opening the valve located under the tank. Place a container under the valve and open the valve by turning anti-
clockwise. See fig.1.
6.2.
Operations to be carried out every 100 hours (or more frequently, if the compressor operates in a very dusty atmosphere):
a) Check the automatic cut-out at max. pressure and the automatic cut-in at 2 bar below.
b) Check the condition of the air filter. If necessary remove the filter element (fig.6) and clean by blowing through, with an air line at low
pressure from the clean side or wash in soapy water, rinse and dry.
DO NOT
operate the compressor without the filter as foreign bodies
or dust could seriously damage the pump.
6.3.
Operations to be carried out every 500 hours:
a) Replace air filter.
b) Check all tube fittings and electrical connections.
Inspection of pressure tank both inside and out. Under the PRESSURE SYSTEMS REGULATIONS 2000 it is the responsibility of the
owner of the compressor to initiate a system of inspection that both defines the frequency of the inspection and appoints a person who
has specific responsibility for carrying out the inspection.
IMPORTANT!
Failure to carry out maintenance tasks may invalidate the warranty on your compressor.
