SAFETY RULES
This symbol indicates warnings to be read before using the product so as
to prevent injury to the user.
Compressed air is a potentially dangerous form of energy; always take
great care when using the compressor and its accessories.
Warning: the compressor may restart when power is restored following
a blackout.
An ACOUSTIC PRESSURE's value of 4 m. corresponds to the
ACOUSTIC POWER's value stated on the yellow label located on the
compressor, minus 20 dB.
DO'S
- The compressor must be used in a suitable environment (well ventilated
with an ambient temperature of between +5°C and +40°C) and never in
places with dust, acids, vapors, explosive or flammable gases.
- Keep the work area free. When operating, the compressor must be placed
on a stable surface.
- Safety goggles should be worn when using the compressor in order to
protect the eyes against any foreign bodies lifted by the jet of air.
- If possible, when using air-powered accessories, wear safety clothing.
- Always maintain a safety distance of at least 4 meters between the
compressor and the work area.
- Check for correspondence between the compressor plate data with the
actual specifications of the electrical system. A variation of ± 10% with
respect of the rated value is allowed.
- Insert the plug of the electrical cable in a socket of suitable shape, voltage
and frequency complying with current regulations.
- Use extension cables with a maximum length of 5 meters and with a
cable cross-section of not less than 1.5 mm
of different length and cross-section and also of adapters and multiple
sockets should be avoided.
- Always use the handle to move the compressor.

USE OF THE COMPRESSOR
Connect the accessory required. Connect the compressor to the mains
using the power cable 10.
Press switch 1 to start the compressor. The compressor will continue to
operate until the air receiver is completely full. On reaching maximum
pressure (8 bar), the compressor will stop automatically. The pressure
value of the air contained in the receiver is indicated on gauge 3.
It is normal for the compressor to stop and restart at intervals during use
of the compressed air.
When you have finished using the compressor, switch off switch 1 and
disconnect the power cable 10 from the current outlet. Run the accessory
connected dry until there is no more air in the receiver.

- When using compressed air, you must know and comply with the safety
precautions to be adopted for each type of application (inflation, air-
powered tools, painting, washing with water-based detergents only,
clinching, etc.).
- To avoid overheating of the electric motor, this compressor is designed
for intermittent duty operation as indicated on the technical dataplate
(for example, S3-25 means 2.5 minutes On, 7.5 minutes OFF). In
case of overheating, the thermal cutout of the motor is released,
automatically cutting off the power when the temperature is too high due
to excess current take-off. The motor restarts automatically when normal
temperature conditions are restored.
DON'TS
- Never direct the jet of air towards persons, animals or your body.
- Never let the compressor come into contact with water or other liquids
and never direct the jet of liquids sprayed by tools connected to the
compressor towards the compressor: as the appliance is live, this could
cause electrocution or short-circuits.
- Never use the appliance with bare feet or wet hands or feet.
- Never yank the power cable to disconnect the plug from the power outlet
or to move the compressor.
- Never leave the appliance exposed to adverse weather conditions (rain,
sun, fog, snow).
- If this compressor is used outdoors, always remember to stow it after use
in a covered or closed place
- Never use the compressor outdoors in rain or bad weather.
- Never allow inexpert persons to use the compressor without suitable
surveillance. Keep animals at a distance from the work area.
- This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with
reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience
and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction
concerning the use of the appliance by a person responsible for their
safety.
- Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the
appliance.
- The compressed air produced by the compressor cannot not be used for
pharmaceutical, food or medical purposes or to fill the air bottles of scuba
divers.
- Do not place flammable or nylon/fabric objects close to and/or on the
compressor.
- Do not cover the air inlets on the compressor.
- Do not open or tamper with any part of the compressor. Contact an
authorized Service Center.

MAINTENANCE
Never clean the machine and its components with solvents, flammable or
toxic liquids. Us only a damp cloth making sure you have unplugged the
compressor from the current outlet.
After approx. 2 hours of use, the condensate that has formed must be
drained from the receiver. First of all, vent all the air using the accessory
connected, as described above. Back off vent valve 5 located underneath
the compressor (switched off beforehand) by two turns, taking care to
maintain the compressor in a vertical position. After draining all the water,
draw up the valve tightly.
Warning: if the water that condenses is not drained, it may corrode the
receiver, reducing its capacity and impairing safety.
As it is a contaminating product, condensate must be DISPOSED of
in accordance with laws on protection of the environment and current
legislation.
The compressor must be disposed in conformity with the methods
provided for by local regulations.
