Operating Procedure - Max PowerLite AKHL1260E Mode D'emploi

11. (Fig.D) Open the drain cock to discharge
all the compressed air and water in the air
tank.
If you found any abnormalities in the check-
up or inspection prior to the operation, send
the machine to your dealer or authorized
service facility for inspection or repair.

Operating Procedure

Before operating the machine, be sure to carry
out the "Inspection and checkup prior to opera-
tion" described on page 17.
1. Fully open the drain cock and turn the
power switch on. The buzzer will sound
with a beep at the same time.
• For buzzer sounding patterns, see
page 20.
After the operation has started, close the
drain cock tight to increase the pressure.
2. (Fig.I) After confirming the operation has
stopped due to the increased pressure,
turn the adjustment handle of the pres-
sure-reduction valve to adjust the operat-
ing pressure of the nailer and pneumatic
tool to the appropriate level. When ad-
justing the pressure, turn the pressure-
reduction valve's adjustment handle
counterclockwise to set the pressure at a
level lower than the appropriate value by
2 bars once. Then proceed to the adjust-
ment while increasing the pressure by
turning the handle clockwise.
• Make sure to start the adjustment at a level
lower than the appropriate pressure and
continue the adjustment while increasing
the pressure from that level upward. If you
start the adjustment from a level higher
than the appropriate value, an error results
between the pressure gauge value and ac-
tually used pressure. (Due to Characteris-
tics of pressure-reduction valve
respectively)
• 2 pressure-reduction valves provided on
this machine allow you to connect MAX
and the general-purpose nailer or
pneumatic tool.
<Pressure-reduction valve H> Allows
connection and use of MAX PowerLite
tools (of operating pressure of 24.5 bars
(355psi) maximum)
<Pressure-reduction valve L> Allows con-
nection and use of the general-purpose
nailers or pneumatic tools (of operating
pressure of 8.3 bars (120psi) maximum)
WARNING
• You must observe the specified operating
air pressure for the nailers and pneumatic
tools.
Using a nailer or pneumatic tool without ad-
justing the supply pressure with the reduc-
tion valve can seriously degrade their
performance, induce their premature aging
or damage them.
• Using a nailer or pneumatic tool at an inappro-
priate pressure level (at an unnecessary high
pressure) increases their air consumption, po-
tentially degrading their capability in continu-
ous work. Be sure to use them at the
appropriate pressure.
3. (Fig.J) After you have finished with the
adjustment of supply pressure, you can
start the operation by connecting the air
hose to the air outlet (air chuck).
4. Connect the high pressure hose to the
high pressure air hose for MAX PowerLite
tools to the high pressure air chuck on
the H side of the pressure-reduction
valve.
Connect the air hose for the general-purpose
nailer to the air chuck on the L side of the
pressure-reduction valve.
• The air chuck is the one-touch type, allow-
ing you to connect the air plug to the air
chuck just by pushing in.
WARNING
• Before connecting the air hose to this com-
pressor, make sure that the air hose and
hose fixture are firmly secured.
