Anleitung Zusammenfassung
Air pressure is measured in pounds per square inch (PSI). Most tools have maximum pressure ratings. Never exceed the maximum pressure rating of the tool you are using. Be sure this gauge reads ZERO before changing air tools or disconnecting hose from outlet. 3 Handle Used to move the compressor. 4 Regulator Knob This knob controls air pressure to an air operated tool or paint spray gun. Turning the knob clockwise increases air pressure at the outlet. Turning counterclockwise will lower air pressure at the outlet. Fully counterclockwise will shut off the flow of air completely. ClOSE OPEN 5 Tank Pressure Gauge Gauge shows pressure in tank indicating compressor is building pressure properly. 6 Pump The pump takes in air and generates the pressurized air in the air storage tanks. 7 ASME Safety Valve This valve automatically releases air if the tank pressure exceeds the preset maximum. 8 On/Off Switch This switch allows manual control of the compressor. Note that when the switch is turned on, the compressor will automatically start and stop depending on tank pressure. 9 Tank Drain Valve The tank drain valve allows moisture to be removed from the tanks. 10 Air Storage Tanks The tanks store air for later use. 9 Operating Your Air Compressor Moisture in Compressed Air Moisture in compressed air will form into droplets as it comes from an air compressor pump. When humidity is high or when a compressor is in continuous use for an extended period of time, this moisture will collect in the tanks. When using a paint spray or sandblast gun, this water will be carried from the tanks through the hose, and out of the gun as droplets mixed with the spray material. IMPORTANT: This condensation will cause water spots in a paint job, especially when spraying other than water based paints. If sandblasting, it will cause the sand to cake and clog the gun, rendering it ineffective. A filter in the air line, located as near to the gun as possible, will help eliminate this moisture. Operating Your Air Compressor Make sure the tank drain valve is closed, the regulator knob is turned fully counterclockwise, and the On/Off switch is in the Off position. Plug compressor into a dedicated 15 Amp (minimum) circuit. Turn On/Off switch to the On position. The compressor will now start building pressure. After compressor reaches cut-off pressure, install a hose (with the desired air tool attached) into the outlet fitting. Adjust the regulator knob to the desired pressure. The compressor is now ready to operate. ! WARNING: Do not over-pressurize any air tool Consult air tool instructions for proper air tool pressure for Trouble-free Operation 1. Read instructions: Carefully read through this operator’s manual BEFORE OPERATING the new air compressor. It contains information about operation and maintenance of the unit. 2. Drain tanks daily: Depressurize system prior to draining tanks by manually releasing air from the safety valve. Open tank drain valve and drain moisture from tank. This helps keep oil and moisture out of the compressed air system. Be sure to close tank drain valve tightly before operating compressor. 10 Maintenance ! WARNING: Release all pressure and disconnect power before making any repair 1. Check compressor for any visible problems, especially check air filter to be sure it is clean. 2. Pull ring on safety valve and allow it to snap back to 4. Turn power OFF and clean dust and dirt from motor, tank, air lines and pump cooling fins. IMPORTANT: Unit should be located as far from spraying area as hose will allow to prevent over-spray from clogging filter. TANK normal position. ! DANGER: Never attempt to repair or modify a tank! Welding, drilling or any other modification will weaken the tank resulting in damage from rupture or explosion Always replace worn, cracked or damaged tanks NOTICE: Drain liquid from tanks daily ! WARNING: Safety valve must be replaced if it cannot be actuated or it leaks air after ring is released The tanks should be carefully inspected at a minimum of once a year. Look for cracks forming near the welds. If a crack is detected, remove pressure from tank immediately and replace. 3. Drain moisture from tanks daily. Shut compressor off. STORAGE Depressurize system prior to draining tanks. Drain 1. When not in use, compressor should be stored in a moisture from tanks by opening the tank drain valve cool dry place. underneath the tanks. 2. Tanks should be drained of moisture. 3. Hose should be disconnected and hung open ends down to allow any moisture to drain. Open Close Maintenance Schedule Operation Daily Weekly Drain tanks . Check Safety Valve . Blow Dirt from Inside Motor . 11 Troubleshooting ! WARNING: for your own safety do not try to run the air compressor while troubleshooting TROUBlE PROBABlE CAUSE REMEDY Compressor will 1. Unit is plugged into extension cord 1. Remove extension cord not run 2. No electrical power, blown fuse, or tripped circuit breaker at electrical panel 3. Motor overheated / t...
