HANDLING THE GUN The first requirement for a good resultant finish is the proper handling of the gun.

TROUBLE SHOOTING With considerate use, your CLARKE Air Compressor should provide you with long and trouble free service. Routine checks should be made on both the electrical supply as well as the compressed air lines and connections. If any fault appears, the reason for which is not immediately obvious, please contact your local CLARKE Dealer. PROBLEM The compressor stops and will not start again. The compressor does not reach the set pressure and overheats easily.
