REPARATION FOR 

S

TARTING

 

1.

 

The working environment for the compressor should be clean, dry and ventilated. 

2.

 

Keep the use voltage within 

±5% of rated voltage.

 

3.

 

Keep the oil level within the red circle leveller. 

4.

 

The recommended compressor oil is SAE30 or L-DAB 100 in ambient temperatures over 
10°C and use SAE10 or L-DAB 68 for ambient temperatures below 10°C. 

5.

 

Open the outlet valve, set the knob of pressure switch in position ON. Let the compressor 
run 10 minutes with no load to ensure lubricating the moving parts before regular service.

PERATION AND 

A

DJUSTMENT 

 

1.

 

The compressor is controlled by the pressure switch under normal working conditions. It 
automatically  stops  as  pressure  reaches  the  maximum  and  will  restart  as  pressure 
decreases to the minimum. The rated pressure has been set at the factory so please do 
not adjust it. As soon as the motor is switched off, the compressed air in the discharge 
pipe should be released through the release valve under the switch. This is the necessary 
condition for  restart otherwise  the  motor  will be  damaged.  The  rated  pressure  can  be 
adjusted by turning the adjusting bolt of the switch. Contact us first before considering 
adjusting the rated pressure. 

2.

 

The outlet pressure of compressed air can be adjusted by the regulating valve. 

3.

 

When the compressor is running and needs to be turned off. Only set the knob of 
pressure switch in position OFF.
