SAFETY
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This compress or shoul d be grounded while in us e to protect the
operator from elec tric shoc k.The compress or is equipped with a
three-conductor cord and three-prong grounding type pl ug to fit the
proper grounding type receptacle. The green (or green and yellow)
conductor in the cord is the grounding wire. Never connect the
green (or green and yellow) wire to a li ve termi nal. If your units is
for use on less than 150 volts, it has a plug that looks like that
shown i n s ketch (A) i n figure on the right. An adapter, see s ketches
(B) and (C), is availabl e for connecti ng sketch (A) type pl ugs to
two- prong receptacles. T he green-color ed rigid ear, lug, or the like
extending from the adapter mus t be connected to a permanent
ground, s uch as a properly grounded outlet box. NOTE: the
grounding adaptor, sketch (C), is prohibited in Canada by
Canadian El ectrical Code Part.1. Therefore, the instruc tions for its
use are not applicable in Canada.
EXTENSION CORD
Use onl y three-extension cords that have three-prong grounding
type plugs and three-pole receptables that acc ept the compr essor's
plug. Replac e or repair damaged c ord. Make sure your extension
cord is in good c ondition. When usi ng an extension cord, be sur e to
use one heavy enough to carr y the current your product will draw.
An undersized cord will caus e a drop in line voltage resulting in
loss of power and overheating. Table s hows the correct size to use
depending on c ord lenght and name plate ampere rating. If in
doubt, use the next heavier gage. T he smaller the gage number,
the heavier the c ord.

OPERAT ION AND MAINTEN ANCE NOTE: The information
contained in this Instr uction Manual is designed to assist you in the
safe operation and maintenance of the compress or. Some
illustrations in this Instruc tion Manual may show details or
attac hments that differ from those on your own c ompressor.
INSTALL ATION After havi ng removed the compress or from its
pac king (fig. 1) and having chec ked its perfec t integrity, making
sure that it has not been damaged during transport, proceed as

COMPRESSOR W ITH TANK (FIG.20)
Fit the wheels and the rubbers on the tanks where these have not
been fitted, followi ng the instr uctions provided in fig. 2. Also fit the
air filter (fig. 2B) in c ompressors in which this has not been fi tted.
COMPRESSOR W ITHOUT TANK (FIG.21)
Fit the suc tion cups underneath the base of the unit as indic ated in
fi g.2A. Position the compress or on a fl at s urface or one with an
inclination of 10° at the most (fig. 3), in a well-ventilated area away
from atmos pheric agents and not in explosi ve areas . If the surface
is sloping and smooth, make sure that the c ompressor does not
move while running, otherwis e bloc k the wheels with two wedges.
If the s urfac e c onsists of a s helf or the ledge of a stand, make sure
that it may not fall off by sec uring it appropriately. The compress or
must be positioned at l east 50 c m away from any walls to ensure
its ideal ventilation and effecti ve c ooling. (fig. 4).
THIS COMPRESSOR RUNS W ITHOUT OIL (4A)
OPERAT IONAL INSTRUCTIONS
- Transport the compr essor in the correct manner without tipping it or
lifting it with hooks or ropes . (fig. 5 - 6)
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION The single-phase compressors
are supplied c omplete with an electrical c able and two-pol e + earth
power plug. The c ompressor must be connec ted to a power s oc ket
provided with earth connection. (fig. 7)
The earth connec tion must be ac hieved acc ording to the industrial
safety s tandar ds (EN 60204). The plug of the power s upply c able
must not be used as a s witch but must be plugged into a power
socket that is controlled by a suitable differ ential s witc h (magneto
thermal s witch).
Make sure that the mai ns voltage corresponds to that indicated on
the el ectrical data nameplate (fig. 8), the admitted tolerance range
must remain withi n ± 5%.
COMPRESSOR W ITH TANK (Fig. 20): Turn or press, depending
on the type of press ure s witch fitted on the equipment, the knob
situated in the upper part to «0» (fig. 9). Put the pl ug in the power
socket (fi g. 7) and turn the knob to «I». Attac h the rubber hos e or
the spiral type hose to the appr opriate fi tting situated near the
pressure s witch (fig.25). The c ompressor runs in a c ompletely
automatic manner and is c ontrolled by the press ure s witch that
stops it when the pressur e inside the tank reac hes the maximum
pressure and s tarts it again when the press ure falls bac k down to
the minimum l evel. The differenc e in press ure is usually 2 bar (29
psi) roughly between the maximum and mi nimum value. I.e.: the
compressor stops when it reac hes 8 bar (116 psi) ( max. running
pressure) and is automaticall y re-started when the press ure inside
the tank falls to 6 bar (87 psi). After having connected the
compressor to the el ectrical power suppl y line, l oad to the
maxi mum pressure and chec k the c orrect efficienc y of the
mac hine.
COMPRESSOR W ITHOUT TANK (Fig. 21): Put the plug in the
power soc ket (fig. 7). Press the starting push button situated at the
side of the compressor (fig. 9A). T his type of compress or is
provided with a devic e that automaticall y controls the maximum
wor king pressure even if the us er is not using compressed air.The
compressor automaticall y r eleas es the exc ess air from a val ve
situated on the head. The c ompressor does not stop automatic ally.
Use the ON/OFF pus h button to s top the c ompressor. Attach the
rubber hos e or the spiral type hos e to the appropriate fi tting
situated at the top of the c ompressor, near the gear motor (fig. 25).
NOTE: The head/c ylinder/deli ver y hos e unit situated beneath the
panelling may r each high temperatures therefore be c areful when
wor king near these components and do not touch them to avoid
getting burned (fig. 10).
