Break-In Period; Using The Air Compressor - Ryobi YG601PV1 n Manuel D'utilisation

CONNECTING/DISCONNECTING AIR HOSE
See Figure 2, page 16.
WARNING:
Never exceed the air tool's pressure rating as recom-
mended by the manufacturer. When using this air com-
pressor as an inflation device, always follow the maximum
inflation guidelines stated by the manufacturer of the item
being inflated.
 Make sure the air compressor is off and unplugged.
 Rotate pressure regulator knob fully in the counter-
clockwise direction so that the outlet pressure is at
zero (0) psi.
 Attach an air hose with 1/4 in. NPT quick-connect air fitting
to a quick connect coupler (1/4 in.) on air compressor.
Make sure to push the air fitting fully into the coupler until
the sleeve springs forward to lock in place.
 To lessen the chance of the air compressor becoming
unbalanced during use, route the air hose through the
corresponding hose channel on the bottom of the unit,
out the nearest side, then over to your worksite.
To disconnect an air hose or an air tool:
 Confirm that the outlet pressure is at zero (0) psi.
 When disconnecting a hose from quick connect coupler
(1/4 in.), always firmly hold fitting end of hose.
 Push back on the release sleeve on the 1/4 in. quick-
connect coupler.
 With a firm grip, pull out the quick-connect air fitting that
is attached to the quick connect coupler.

BREAK-IN PERIOD

Before first use, run the air compressor at zero (0) tank pres-
sure with the drain valve fully open for 30 minutes.
TURNING THE AIR COMPRESSOR ON/OFF
See Figure 3, page 17.
 With the air compressor plugged in, turn the on/off switch
to the ON position to power the compressor on.
 To turn the air compressor off, turn the on/off switch to
the OFF position.
NOTE: When the compressor is in the ON position, the
air compressor will automatically turn back on when the
designated tank air pressure drops below the preset pressure
limit. It will also shut off again when the desired pressure
is reached.
OPERATION
WARNING:
Never exceed the air tool's pressure rating as recom-
mended by the manufacturer. When using this air com-
pressor as an inflation device, always follow the maximum
inflation guidelines stated by the manufacturer of the item
being inflated.
WARNING:
Always ensure the switch is in the OFF (O) position and
the regulator pressure gauge reads zero before changing
air tools or disconnecting the hose from the air outlet.
Failure to do so could result in possible serious personal
injury.

USING THE AIR COMPRESSOR

See Figure 4, page 17.
WARNING:
Risk of bursting. Do not adjust pressure regulator
knob to result in output pressure greater than marked
maximum pressure of attachment and/or the item being
inflated. Never use at pressure greater than 150 psi. Fail-
ure to heed this warning could result in possible serious
personal injury.
WARNING:
Air powered tools may require more air consumption
than this air compressor is capable of providing. Check
the tool manual to avoid damage to the tool or risk of
personal injury.
 Attach air hose following the instructions in Connecting/
Disconnecting Air Hose (Not Provided).
 Set the amount of air pressure desired using the pressure
regulator knob. Pull the knob up, then turn clockwise to
increase or counterclockwise to decrease the air pressure
to be provided through the hose. When the desired
pressure is set, push the knob back down to lock.
NOTE: Always use the minimum amount of pressure
necessary for your application. Using a higher pressure
than needed will drain air from the tank more rapidly and
cause the unit to cycle on more frequently.
 When finished, always drain the tank and unplug the
unit. Never leave the unit plugged in and/or running
unattended.
