3.2 AIR CONNECTION
Best use for connection of the compressor to an air circuit a flexible hose, to
isolate fibrations from the machine. The coupling No 6 is an Orion/Airpress quick
coupling.
4.0 FIRST USE
1. Check if the instructions mentioned above have been executed.
2. On delivery the compressor mostly is not filled with oil. Fill about 0,5 litres
compressor oil until the red circle on the oil inspection glas (12).
3. Install the oil filler cap (13) on the crank case lid (first remove the synthetic
plug).
4. Avoid the use of extension cables. If you use them, unroll them completely and
use cables of sufficient capacity. Tabel for extension cables:
0 - 10 meter: 3 x 1,5 mm
5. Check tension on the V-belt (14). At the right tension the V-belt can easily be
turned by hand approximately 45 degrees. If necessary, improve tension. See
chapter 6.0 point 5. For daily operation of the compressor, see chapter 5.0.
• Switch on the compressor by means of pulling the pressure switch (4).
• The compressor will now operate, unless the air receiver is still under pressure
(pressure gauge 8).
• Switch the machine, during operation, exclusively off by means of pushing the
button on the automatic pressure switch (4); the pressure circuit will be vented
and the compressor can start again uncharged.
5.0 OPERATION
1. Check if the pressure switch is turned off. Connect electricity. Turn on the
pressure switch. If the air pressure in the air tank is lower than the 'switch on
pressure', the compressor will turn itself on, until maximum pressure has been
reached. Is the pressure in the tank higher than the 'switch on pressure' the
machine will not start, but will be stand by to start when the pressure drops to
low.
2. When switching of the compressor, first switch the pressure switch to "0" before
turning off the electricity. The pressure switch takes the pressure off the air
circuit, so that the compressor can run freely when it starts again. This prevents
damage to the motor.
3. The electric motor of your compressor is protected against burning by a the-
rmal overload device. This device turns off the motor automatically, if the motor
should get overloaded, or if one phase should fall out. By pressing the reset
button on the thermal overload device after a short time, the compressor will
function again.
