3. SCOPE OF USE
The compressor is designed for generating compressed
air for tools operated by compressed air.
Please note that our equipment has not been designed
for use in commercial, trade or industrial applications.
Our warranty will be voided if the machine is used
in commercial, trade or industrial businesses or for
equivalent purposes.
The machine is to be used only for its prescribed
purpose. Any other use is deemed to be a case of
misuse. The user/operator and not the manufacturer
will be liable for any damage or injuries of any kind
caused as a result of this.
4. POINTS TO NOTE WHEN SETTING
UP THE COMPRESSOR
● Examine the machine for signs of transit damage.
Report any damage immediately to the company
which delivered the compressor.
● The compressor should be set up near the working
consumer.
●
Avoid long air lines and long supply lines (extensions).
● Make sure the intake air is dry and dust-free.
●
Do not set up the compressor in damp or wet rooms.
●
The compressor may only be used in suitable rooms
(with good ventilation and an ambient temperature from
+5°C to +40°C). There must be no dust, acids, vapors,
explosive gases or inflammable gases in the room.
● The compressor is designed to be used in dry rooms.
It is prohibited to use the compressor in areas where
work is conducted with sprayed water.
5. ASSEMBLY AND STARTING
Warning!
You must fully assemble the appliance before
using it for the first time.
5.1 Fitting the supporting foot (ref. 4)
Fit the supplied rubber stopper as shown in figure 3.
5.2 Voltage
The compressor is equipped with a mains cable with
shock-proof plug. This can be connected to any 230V
~ 50Hz shock-proof socket which is protected by a 16
A fuse. Before you use the machine, make sure that
the mains voltage complies with the specifications on
the rating plate. Long supply cables, extensions, cable
reels etc. cause a drop in voltage and can impede motor
start-up. In the case of low temperatures below +5°C,
motor start-up is jeopardized as a result of stiffness.
5.2.1 Connection of the mains plug (electrical
information for the BS plug)
Important!
The wires in the mains lead fitted to this product are
coloured in accordance with the code shown in fig. 4.
● This product is double insulated and therefore
does not require a connection to earth.
● The 3 pin plug must comply to BS1363/A.
● Fuse must comply to BS1362.
If for any reason the 13 amp plug fitted to this product
requires replacement it must be wired in accordance
with the following instruction:
Do not connect the brown (live) or blue (neutral)
to the earth pin marked ‘E’
on the 3 pin plug.
Connect the Blue wire to the terminal marked Neutral
(N). Connect the Brown wire to the terminal marked
Live (L). Ensure that the outer insulation is gripped by
●
When fitting a tool, the flow of air in output must be
switched off.
●
When using compressed air, you must know and
comply with the safety precautions to be adopted for
each type of application (inflation, pneumatic tools,
painting, washing with water-based detergents only,
etc.).
