3. PREPARATION FOR STARTING
⑴Check all bolts and nuts. Make sure all parts that are
loose must be tightened.
⑵The place to set the compressor should be clean, dry
and ventilated.
⑶Keep the using voltage within ±4% of the rated.
⑷Keep the oil level in the red circle of the oil leveler.
⑸Recommend SAE30 or L-DAB100 over 10℃, and use
SAE10 or L-DAB68 below 10℃of the compressor oil.
⑹Open the outlet valve, set the knob of pressure switch in
position on (Fig.2), let the compressor run 10 minutes with
no load to ensure lubricating the moving parts before
regular service.
4. OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENT
⑴The compressor is controlled by a pressure switch on start up. It will stop
automatically as pressure increases to the maximum
and restarts automatically as pressure decreasing to
the minimum. The rated pressure has been factory set
and MUST not be altered. As soon as motor is
switched off, the compressed air in the discharge pipe
should be released through the pressure release valve.
This is a necessary proceedure for the restart or
storage as the motor could result in damage.
⑵The output pressure of compressed air can be
adjusted by the regulating valve. Pull up the knob of
regulation valve and turn it clockwise to increase and
counter clockwise to decrease the pressure (Fig.3).
⑶When the compressor in running and is needed to be stopped press the ON/OFF
switch to the OFF position.
5. CAUTIONS
⑴Before compressor is started and ran you MUST
install Air Filter and oil hole plug (Breather pipe)
(Fig.4).
⑵Never unscrew any parts or take out oil hole plug
in a pressurised condition or when in operation.
⑶Never disassemble any electrical part before
disconnecting the plug from the mains.
⑷Never adjust the safety valve.
⑸Never use the compressor in place where voltage is too low or too high.
⑹Never use an extension electric lead more than 5m long with less than 1.5mm2 core.
