4. OPERATION
V-Twin pump with aluminium cylinders and cast iron liners for
reduced weight and improved resistance to wear. Suitable for general
purpose workshop applications. Pump directly coupled to heavy-duty
induction motor for reliable operation. Precision welded receiver tank
manufactured to meet Pressure Vessel Directive 2009/105/EC. Fitted
with fully automatic pressure cut-out switch, air regulator and
pressure gauges for tank and supply. Supplied with handle and
wheels for easy manoeuvrability. Fitted with ASTA/BS approved
non-rewirable plug.
3. PREPARATION
3.1.
Remove compressor from packaging and inspect for any
shortages or damage. If anything is found to be missing or
damaged contact your supplier.
3.2.
Save the packing material for future transportation of the
compressor. We recommend that you store the packing in a
safe location, at least for the period of the guarantee. Then, if
necessary, it will be easier to send the compressor to the
service centre.
3.3.
Confirm that the mains voltage corresponds with the voltage
shown on the compressor data plate.
3.4.
Assemble the wheels (fig.A.X) and rubber feet (fig.A.Y) to
the main frame using the nuts, bolts and washers supplied.
3.5.
The compressor should be operated on a flat surface, or one
that does not exceed 5° either transversely or longitudinally
(fig.1), and should be in a position that allows good air
circulation around the unit.
3.6.
The compressor is supplied without oil in it. The oil is in a
separate container. Remove the transit plug from the oil filler
aperture, pour oil into the aperture until it has reached the
correct level on the sight glass (fig.2C). Fit the oil filler/
breather supplied into the aperture.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO RUN THE COMPRESSOR UNTIL
THIS HAS BEEN DONE.
3.7.
Ensure that the air vent in the oil filler/breather is free
from debris. If the air vent is blocked, pressure can build
up in the crankcase causing damage to the compressor
and possible personal injury.
(fig.2C)
3.8.
Screw the back half of a filter unit into the downward facing
port openings in each head as shown in fig.2.A. Place a filter
cover over each threaded rod protruding from the back half
of the filter and secure each with a wing nut. Refer also to
fig.4.
fig.2
WARNING! Ensure that you have read, understood and
apply Section 1 safety instructions.
4.1. IMPORTANT. The use of extension leads to connect this
compressor to the mains is not recommended as the
resulting voltage drop reduces motor, and therefore
pump, performance and could damage your compressor.
4.2. Take care when selecting tools for use with the
compressor. Air tool manufacturers normally express the
volume of air required to operate a tool in cubic feet per
minute (cfm).
