1. PRECAUTIONS

All users must read and fully understand all information 

contained in this owner’s manual before assembling, operating, 

or maintaining this air compressor.

Carefully review the following rules for safe operation and fully 

understand all warnings.
An ACOUSTIC PRESSURE value of 4 m. corresponds to the 

ACOUSTIC POWER value stated on the yellow label located on 

the compressor, minus 20 dB.

THINGS TO DO

●

The compressor must be used in a suitable environment (well 

ventilated with an ambient temperature of b5°C and 

+40°C) and never in places affected by dust, acids, vapours, 

explosive or flammable gases

.

●

 Always maintain a safety distance of at least 4 meters between the 

compressor and the work area.

●

 Any coloring of the belt guards of the compressor during painting 

operations indicates that the distance is too short.

●

Insert the plug of the electric cable in a socket of suitable shape, 

voltage and frequency complying with current regulations.

●

 Use extension cables with a maximum length of 5 meters and of 

suitable cross-section.

●

 The use of extension cables of different length and also of adapters 

and multiple sockets should be avoided.

●

 Always use the 

I/O

 switch to switch off the compressor.

●

 Always use the handle to move the compressor (fig. 4).

●

 Always disconnect power cord and air hose from the air compressor 

before transporting.

●

When  operating,  the  compressor  must  be  placed  on  a  stable, 

horizontal surface.

●

 The compressor must only and exclusively be operated in a 

horizontal position (fig. 1), standing on two strips of rubber located 

at the opposite side of the control panel.

THINGS 

NOT

 TO DO

●

Never direct the jet of air towards persons, animals or your body. 

(Always wear safety goggles to protect your eyes against flying 

objects that may be lifted by the jet of air).

●

Never direct the jet of liquids sprayed by tools connected to the 

compressor towards the compressor.

●

  Never use the appliance with bare feet or wet hands or feet.

●

  Never pull the power cable to disconnect the plug from the socket 

or to move the compressor.

●

  Never leave the appliance exposed to adverse weather 

conditions.

●

  Never transport the compressor with the receiver under pressure.

●

Do not weld or machine the receiver. In the case of faults or rusting, 

replace the entire receiver.

●

  Never allow inexpert persons to use the compressor. Keep children 

and animals at a distance from the work area.

●

  This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including 

children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or 

lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given 

supervision or instruction concerning the use of the appliance by a 

person responsible for their safety.

●

  Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with 

the appliance.

●

Do not position flammable or nylon/fabric objects closed to and/or 

on the compressor.

●

  Never clean the compressor with flammable liquids or solvents. 

Check that you have unplugged the compressor and clean with a 

damp cloth only.

●

  The compressor must be used only for air compression. Do not use 

the compressor for any other type of gas.

●

  The compressed air produced by the compressor cannot not be 

used  for  pharmaceutical,  food  or  medical  purposes  except  after 

particular treatments and cannot be used to fill the air bottles of 

scuba divers.

●

  To  avoid  serious  burns,  never  touch  the  cylinder  head  parts  or 

tubing during or immediately after operation.

THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW

●

To avoid overheating of the electric motor, this compressor is 

designed for intermittent operation

 (do not operate on more than 

a 15% duty cycle. If this air compressor pumps air more than 15% 

of  one  hour,  then  the  compressor’s  capability  is  less  than  the  air 

delivery required by the application. Always match the air volume 

requirements of the attachment or accessory with the air volume 

delivery of the compressor). In the case of overheating, the thermal 

cut-out of the motor trips, automatically cutting off the power when 

the temperature is too high. The motor restarts automatically when 

normal temperature conditions are restored.

●

When the compressor is plugged into an electrical source and 

the 

I/O

 switch is in the “ON” position, this compressor will 

cycle automatically.

– Never touch any moving parts.

–

 Keep all body parts, hair, clothing, and jewelry away from moving 

parts.

– Never operate the air compressor without all guards and shrouds 

in place.

– Never stand on the compressor.

●

 The compressor is fitted with a safety valve that is tripped in the case 

of malfunctioning of the pressure switch in order to assure machine 

safety.

●

 The red notch on the pressure gauge refers to the maximum 

operating  pressure  of  the  tank.  It  does  not  refer  to  the  adjusted 

pressure.

●

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.)

.

●

 Never exceed the maximum allowable pressure recommended by 

the manufacturer of any attachment or accessory you use with this 

compressor.

2.  FEATURES (Pics. 1-2-3)

A. 

I/O

 Switch:

 The 

I/O

 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 10 bar (145 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.
