SAFETY
EXTENSION CABLE
Use only three-way extension cables that have three-pin connecting
plugs and three-pole sockets that accept the compressor plug. Do not
use extension cables that are damaged or squashed. An under-rated
cable will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and
overheating. The table shows the correct size to use depending on the
length according to the following parameters (size in [mm2 ] for a cable
with maximum length of 20 mt.):
220/230 V
110/120 V

INSTALLATION
Fit the suction cups underneath the base of the unit as indicated.
Position the compressor on a flat surface or one with a max. inclination
of 10° in a well-ventilated area. If the surface is sloping and smooth,
make sure that the compressor does not move while in operation. If the
compressor operates on a shelf or the edge of a stand, ensure that it
does not fall off by securing it appropriately.
STARTING
Make sure the main ON/OFF switch is turned OFF (pos. «0»). Plug the
compressor into the mains and turn the main switch ON (pos. «I»).
Connect the rubber hose or the spiral pipe in the dedicated pipe fitting.
This type of compressor without tank is equipped with a device that
automatically controls the maximum working pressure even when
the user is not using compressed air. The compressor automatically
releases any excess air through an appropriate valve. The compressor
does not stop automatically. Turn the main O/I switch OFF to switch
the compressor off.
MAINTENANCE
Make sure that the power supply cable is unplugged from the mains
before starting any maintenance jobs on the compressor.
HOW TO RECTIFY SLIGHT ANOMALIES
Air leaks
These may depend on the poor seal of some of the pipe fittings within
the machine; check all the pipe fittings by wetting them with soapy
water.
The compressor fails to start
If the compressor fails to start, check:
- if all the wires are connected properly
- if the compressor is electrically powered (plugged in correctly, circuit
breaker tripped, blown fuses)
ATTENTION!
- Ambient temperature to ensure correct operating efficiency: 0°C
+25°C (MAX 45°C).
- When the compressor is not in use, turn the main switch OFF
(pos. «0»).
- Be very careful when using the compressor, as some of its parts such
as the head and delivery pipes can get extremely hot. Do not touch
these parts to avoid getting scalded.
- Use the dedicated handles or grips to lift the compressor to move it
around.
- If you use the compressor for painting:
a) Do not use it indoors or near naked flames.
b) Make sure that the area in which you work has a sufficient change
of air.
c) Protect your nose and mouth by wearing a dedicated mask.
- When you have finished using the compressor always remember to
switch it OFF and unplug it from the mains.

increase from 1 to 10 dB(A) depending on the environment in which the
compressor is installed.
HINTS FOR EFFICIENT OPERATION.
This compressor has been designed
for DIY use with intermittent (not continuous) operation. The use of the
compressor for more than 20 min. during one hour is not recommended.
PNEUMATIC CONNECTIONS
Make sure that pneumatic tools for compressed air with maximum
pressure characteristics that are adequate for the compressor are
used. Do not attempt to repair faulty tubes.
USE WITH TOOLS
WARNING!
Always disconnect the air tool from the air compressor
before changing tools, accessories, servicing and during nonoperation.
IMPORTANT:
When securing wheel nuts it is important to set the regu-
lator to the minimum setting, then use a torque wrench to set fastener
torque. Wheel nuts must be tightened to the vehicle manufacturer’s
recommendation.
NOTE:
SPECIFICATIONS ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE WITHOUT
ANY PRIOR WARNING WHERE NECESSARY.
