Unregulated quick lock coupling

Air tools can also be attached to the unregulated quick lock 

coupling (14) (Fig. 26), but the output pressure level may 

fluctuate. 

Overload switch

The motor is fitted with an overload switch (17). If the 

compressor overloads, the overload switch turns off the 

equipment automatically to protect the compressor. If the 

overload switch triggers, switch off the compressor using the 

ON/OFF switch (9) and wait until the compressor cools down. 

Then press the overload switch (17) and restart the compressor 

(Fig. 27). 

Note.

 Long supply cables, extensions, cable reels etc. cause a drop in voltage and can 

impede motor start-up. 

Turning off

1.    After the task has been completed, switch off the 

compressor by pressing down the on/off switch (9) (Fig. 28). 

2.    Wait for the pressurised air to bleed from the release valve 

under the pressure switch cover.

3    Switch off the power supply and remove the electrical  

plug (Fig. 29).

4.   Pull the ring on the safety valve (11) outwards, releasing 

the remaining compressed air in the tank. Release the ring 

so that the safety valve closes (Fig. 30).
