IMPORTANT:
ALWAYS switch the compressor ON or OFF at the Pressure

2.
Close the air outlet tap and trigger the equipment (spray
gun,air tool etc.) to release air from the air hose before
disconnecting the hose from the machine.
3.
Before transporting your compressor or when leaving

IMPORTANT:
Always refer to the accessory manufacturers recommendations for
optimum
operating pressures for their equipment.
4.
With operating pressure set, reopen the air outlet tap.
5.
The Pressure Switch, located within the plastic cover beneath the ON/OFF switch,
should not require adjustment. This is an automatic device and has been preset at the
factory to stop the motor when pressure in the receiver reaches its maximum, and to
start it again when the pressure in the receiver falls to the minimum preset value.
This operation is completely automatic and does not affect the spraying process in
any way. However, should problems develop with the cut-in, cut out settings, please
consult your Clarke dealer, or the Clarke Service Dep’t.
NOTE:
a
.
If the machine pumps continuously without cutting out then the compressor is too
small for the application/tool being used, and damage may result. Consult your
Clarke dealer. (Does not apply to the SHHH2)
b.
The motor is protected by a Thermal Overload so that if the motor overheats for any
reason - the thermal overload will trip, stopping the motor. Allow a period for the
motor to cool down before restarting (15 - 20 minutes).
c.
DO NOT exceed the Duty Cycle for the machine (see Specifications).
SHUTTING DOWN THE COMPRESSOR
1.
To shut off the compressor, simply turn the ON/OFF switch (see Fig. 1), to the O’(OFF)
position.
