Unpacking Your Tool
• Carefully unpack and inspect your tool. Fully familiarise yourself with all
its features and functions
• Ensure that all parts of the tool are present and in good condition. If
any parts are missing or damaged, have such parts replaced before
attempting to use this tool
Before Use
Attaching the air line quick connector
• WrapPTFEtapearoundthethreadofthecompressorhighpressureoutlet
NOTE: Make sure that the tape is pulled tight around the thread to ensure
it forms a tight seal
• Alignthequickconnectorwiththehighpressureoutletandscrewiton
NOTE: Ensure that the PTFE tape does not unravel as it is being screwed in
• Tightenthequickconnectorinplaceusingthecorrectsizespanner

Using Your Compressor
Switching on
• Beforeturningthecompressoron,makesuretheFlowControlLever
(8) is in the off position (90° to the outlet)
• Checkthatthecompressorisdisconnectedfromallairtoolsorairlines
and that on/off switch is pressed down
• Connectthemachinetomainspowersupply
• PulltheOn/OffSwitch(6)upwards.Thiswillstartthecompressor
• Allowthecompressortobuildpressure,thetankpressureisdisplayed
on the left hand Tank Pressure Gauge (3). When the tank pressure
reaches 8bar (116psi) the motor will stop automatically
• Toswitchthecompressoroff,presstheon/offswitchdown
Connecting air tools
• ToolscanbeconnectedtotheHighPressureOutlet(1)usingasuitable
air line, fitted with a ¼" bayonet type male connector
• IncludedintheboxisanAirLineBayonetFitting(9)andHoseClip(10)
with which you can connect your airline
• Alwaysensurethatairtoolsareinthe'off'positionbeforeconnecting.
Tools will be pressurised as soon as the connections are made
• Toconnectanairtool,tairlinetotool,thenpushthebayonettting
into the high pressure outlet of the compressor
• Onceconnectedslowlyturntheowcontrolleversothatitisinline
with the outlet, this will allow the built up pressure to flow to the tool
• Toreleasetheairline,pullbacktheoutersheathofthehighpressure
outlet and pull the bayonet fitting out. Be aware that the air line and
tool will hold residual air pressure
Adjusting line pressure
• Thepressureoftheairsuppliedtothetool(linepressure)canbe
adjusted using the Pressure Regulator (2). The line pressure is
displayed on the right hand pressure gauge
• Toincreasethelinepressure,rotatethepressureregulatorclockwise.
To reduce the line pressure, rotate the pressure regulator
anti-clockwise
Maintenance
WARNING: Always remove the plug from the mains power supply before
carrying out any maintenance/cleaning.
• Donotattempttoperformanymaintenancewhentheairtankis
pressurised
Releasing air pressure
• Ifitisnecessarytoreleaseresidualairpressurefromtheairtank,
disconnect compressor from mains power supply, and pull the ring in
the centre of the Safety Valve (5) outwards
• Residualairwillescapefromthevalveuntiltheringisreleased,orall
air pressure is released
Draining
• Duringuse,atmosphericmoisturewillcondenseintheairstoragetank.
To avoid any corrosion damage, the tank should be drained of moisture
on a regular basis
• Todrainmoisture,openthecondensationdrainplug,locatedonthe
underside of the tank, approx 3 turns anti-clockwise
• Allowallmoisturetodrainandretightenplug
Cleaning
• Keep your machine clean at all times. Dirt and dust will cause internal
parts to wear quickly, and shorten the machine’s service life. Clean the
body of your machine with a soft brush, or dry cloth. If available, use
clean, dry, compressed air to blow through the ventilation holes
Disposal
• Do not dispose of power tools, or other waste electrical and electronic
equipment, with household waste
• Contact your local waste disposal authority for information on the proper
way to dispose of tools
