2. FEATURES (Pics. 1-2-3)
A. Pressure Switch: The pressure switch is the
activation mechanism that is used to start and stop
the compressor. When the switch is “On”, the motor
and pump will compress air until tank pressure
reaches the upper limit of the factory set operating
pressure. When tank pressure falls below the factory
set “cut in” pressure, the compressor will again
automatically start to compress air.
B. Tank Pressure Gauge: The tank pressure gauge
indicates the air pressure that is present in the tank
in PSI (and BAR).
C. Regulated Pressure Gauge: The regulated
pressure gauge indicates the amount of pressure
that is allowed into the discharge line according to
the setting of the regulator.
D. Regulator Knob: The regulator knob is used
to adjust the air pressure that is available at
the discharge line. The discharge air pressure
is increased by turning the knob clockwise and
decreased by turning the knob counter clockwise.
E. Drain Valve: Ball style valve that drains moisture
from the tank when opened.
F. Quick Coupler: The quick coupler is used to connect
the airline to your tool.
G. Safety valve: The safety valve is set to avoid over-
pressurization of the air tanks. This valve is factory
pre-set at 8 bar (116 PSI) and will not function unless
tank pressure reaches this pressure. Do not attempt
to adjust or eliminate this safety device.
Any adjustments to this valve could cause
serious injury. If this device requires service or
maintenance, see an Authorized Service Center.
3. SCOPE OF USE
The compressor is designed for generating compressed
air for tools operated by compressed air.

4. ELECTRICAL GROUNDING
INSTRUCTIONS
This product should be electrically grounded. In the event
of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of
electrical shock by providing an escape wire for electrical
current. This product is equipped with a cord having
a grounding wire with an appropriate grounding plug.
The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes
and ordinances.
4.1 Connection of the mains plug
Important!
The wires in the mains lead fitted to this product are
coloured in accordance with the code shown in pic. 4.
● Thisproductisdoubleinsulatedandthereforedoes
not require a connection to earth.
● The3pinplugmustcomplytoBS1363/A.
● FusemustcomplytoBS1362.
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’ onthe3pinplug.
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 the cord grip
and that the wires are not trapped when replacing the plug
cover. The mains lead on this product is fitted with a 13
amp (BS1363/A) plug. A 13 amp (BS1362) fuse must be
fitted in the plug.
If in doubt consult a qualified electrician
There are no user serviceable parts inside this product
except those referred to in the manual. Always refer
servicing to qualified service personnel. Never remove
any part of the casing unless qualified to do so; this unit
contains dangerous voltages.
Warning!
For your protection if this product is to be used outdoors it
should not be exposed to rain or used in damp locations. Do
not place the product on damp surfaces, use a workbench
if available. For added protection use a suitable residual
current device (R.C.D.) at the socket outlet.
Note: If the mains cable requires replacing it must be
replaced with an identical one and fitted by a
qualified person.
