1:IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTION IMPROPER OPERATION OR MAINTENANCE OF THIS PRODUCT COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY AND PROPERTY DAMAGE. READ AND UNDERSATND ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE INSTALLING OR USING YOUR AIR COMPRESSOR. KEEP THIS BOOKLET FOR FUTURE REFERENCE. 1-1:RISK OF FIRE ● DO NOT SPRAY COMBUSTIBLE OR FLAMMABLE LIQUID IN A CONFINED AREA, SPRAY AREA MUST BE WELL VENTILATED. ● DO NOT SMOKE WHILE SPRAYING OR SPRAY WHERE SPARK OR FLAME IS PRESENT.
1-4:RISK OF BURNS ● HOT SURFACE CAN CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY. NEVER TOUCH ANY EXPLOSED METAL PARTS ON COMPRESSOR DURING OR IMMEDIATELY AFTER OPERATION. TOUCHING THESE AREAS MAY CAUSE SEVERE BURNS. ● DO NOT REACH AROUND PROTECTIVE SHROUNDS OR ATTEMPT MAINTENANCE UNTIL UNIT HAS BEEN ALLOWED TO COOL. 1-5:RISK OF BREATHING ● USE RESPIRATORY PROTECTION IN A WELL VENTILED AREA WHEN SPRAYING.
2:GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF AIR COMPRESSOR To compress air, the piston moves up and down in the cylinder. During the down-stroke, air is drawn in through the inlet valve, while the discharge valve remains closed. On the up-stroke of the piston, air is compressed. While the inlet valve remain closed, compressed air is forced out through the discharge valve, through the check valve, into air receiver tank. Working air is not available until the pressure in the air receiver built up.
5.2:ELECTRICAL Please ensure that the air compressor is electrically connected in a safe and correct manner. Any electrical work should be carried out by an electrician and installed in a way which meets all applicable codes and regulations. Failure to connect the air compressor correctly to your buildings electrical services may result in serious personal injury or damage to the equipment. Please note that under normal conditions, the air compressor will operate intermittently.
5-2-3-1:This pressure switch control the on/off of the compressor, it can be turn off manually but when it is in the AUTO position, it allows the compressor to start or shut down automatically without warning upon air demand. Always set this switch to OFF when the compressor is not in use and before unplugging compressor. 5-2-4:AIR PRESSURE REGULATOR The air pressure regulator allows operator to adjust line pressure for the tool in use. Never exceed maximum working pressure of the tool.
6:BEARING LUBRICATION The bearing in this unit are sealed bearings that contain sufficient lubricant to last their life. No other lubrication is required. 7:START UP PROCEDURE 7-1: : Check to see that nuts and bolts are all snug, this must be done, as some fasteners may become loose in transit. 7-2: : Check that compressor is on a strong, stable level base. 7-3: : Check that air filter is clean. 7-4: : Do not place any materials on or against the belt guard, or the compressor unit.
8:MAINTENANCE CHECK LIST Before doing any maintenance or adjustments to your air compressor, the following safety precautions should be taken. A: :DISCONNECT ELECTRICAL POWER. B:MAKE SURE NO AIR PRESSURE IN AIR RECEIVER. 8-1: :Daily checklist 8-1-2:Drain condensation from air receiver tank. 8-1-3:Check for any unusual noise or vibration. 8-1-4:Be sure all nuts and bolts are tight. 8-2: :Weekly checklist 8-2-1:Clean air filter, replace if necessary.
