SERVICING & STORAGE
1. TURN OFF THE COMPRESSOR WHEN NOT IN USE: When not in use, turn off by
depressing the On/Off switch, then remove the plug from the mains
supply. Slowly undo the drain valve to release the pressure from the
reservoir. Close the drain valve before storage and ensure it is fully
tightened before use.
2. MOVING THE COMPRESSOR: Always transport the compressor by lifting it by
the handle.
3. CLEANLINESS AND CONDITION OF THE COMPRESSOR: Keep the external
surfaces of the reservoir clean. Avoid impact damage and do not allow
the reservoir to come into contact with abrasive or corrosive materials.
4. DO NOT WIPE THE PLASTIC PARTS WITH SOLVENT: Do not use solvents or
thinners such as petrol, benzene, carbon tetrachloride or alcohol to clean
the compressor, as these chemicals will damage the finish. With the
compressor unplugged from the supply, use a dry cloth to wipe over the
plastic casing.
5. STORE THE COMPRESSOR PROPERLY: When not in use the compressor
should be stored in a secure, dry place, out of the reach of children.
Always lock the storage area. DO NOT leave it exposed to the elements
and avoid direct sunlight, direct heat, rain/moisture etc.
6. ONLY USE PARTS AND ACCESSORIES RECOMMENDED IN THIS MANUAL: The
use of unauthorised accessories or attachments is not permitted and may
result in personal injury or damage to the compressor. Do not attempt to
repair or modify the compressor.
