5.0
Move the power switch to the OFF position.
5.1
Unplug the compressor.
5.2
Reduce the pressure in the tank through the air supply hose.
6.0
To determine the correct working pressure and air flow requirements for any piece
of equipment, check the corresponding manual.
6.1
Be aware that the air flow figure stated on tools and accessories refers to ‘free air
delivery’ and not the piston displacement of the compressor.
6.2
When adjusting the regulator, always adjust up to the required pressure.
6.3
After fitting the desired coupling to the outlet valve, connect and air hose and hook up
to an air system.
An outlet regulator is necessary to use air equipment direct from the compressor.
6.4
At the end of each working day, drain any moisture from the main tank.
6.5
Place a container under the drain plug and then carefully unscrew it anti-clockwise.
6.6
DO NOT allow moisture to accumulate in the tank as this will corrode the inside of
the tank and affect the pressure rating of the tank.
WARNING
Service and maintenance must be performed by an authorised agent.
DO NOT tamper with or attempt to adjust the pressure switch or safety valve.
Before moving or carrying out any maintenance on the compressor, make sure that
the ignition switch is in the OFF position, the power cord has been unplugged and
the air tank pressure has been vented and the compressor allowed to cool down for a
period of time.
7.0
You should drain the tank at the end of each day.
7.1
Place a suitable container capable of holding water, underneath the compressor.
7.2
With compressed air in the tank, slowly turn the drain knob to the open position.
The water in the tank will drain out.
7.3
Once the water has drained, turn the drain knob to the closed position.
7.4
Draining the tank reduces risk of corrosion inside the tank.
