SAFETY PRECAUTIONS WARNING As with all machinery, there are certain hazards involved with their operation and use. Exercising respect and caution will considerably lessen the risk of personal injury. However, if normal safety precautions are overlooked, or ignored, personal injury to the operator, or damage to property may result. It is in your own interest to read and pay attention to the following rules: 1.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS Connect the mains lead to a standard, 230 Volt (50Hz) electrical supply through an approved 13 amp BS 1363 plug, or a suitably fused isolator switch.
OPERATION 1. Ensure the compressor is on level ground...do not allow it to run, positioned on an incline. 2. Check that the mains voltage corresponds with that shown on the data label on the side of the compressor. 3. Ensure that the ON/OFF switch, mounted on the Pressure Switch (shown in fig.1), is turned to the ‘0’ (OFF) position, then plug in and switch on at the mains supply. . To start the compressor, turn the ON/OFF switch to the ‘I’ (ON) position - the motor should start immediately. Fig.
7. 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.
FAULT FINDING PROBLEM The compressor will not start, or stops and will not start again. PROBABLE CAUSE Bad connections. REMEDY Check the electrical connections. Clean and tighten as necessary. Blown fuse Overload cutout switch has tripped. Compressor does not start. Air receiver charged (Does ot apply to SHHH2) (see also item 1) Open drain valve to expel air. Compressor should start again when pressure reduces to approx 95 psi. The compressor does not reach the set pressure and overheats easily.
