BEFORE INSTALLATION 2. Fill the crank case with the synthetic oil provided with the
pack (FIG. 5).
EXTENSION CORD
Use only the extension cord that has two-pole receptacles that
accept the compressor’s plug. Replace or repair damaged cord.
Make sure the extension cord is in good condition. When using
an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry
the current that the compressor will draw. An undersized cord
will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and
overheating.

Table shows the correct size to use depending on the area of
cord and ampere rating.

OPERATING THE COMPRESSOR

1. Before starting the compressor, check

packing, make sure it is in perfect condition (Fig. 2).
2. Position the compressor on a flat surface or on a
maximum permissible inclination of 10°, in a well ventilated
place, protected against atmospheric agents.
3. If the surface is inclined and smooth, check if the
compressor moves while in operation- if it does, secure the
wheels with two wedges on its wheels.
4. If the surface is a bracket or a shelf top, make sure it does
not fall, securing it in a suitable way.
5. To ensure good ventilation and efficient cooling, the
compressor must be placed at least 1m away from any
wall.
6. Connect the Polyurethane air hose with outlet of the
compressor 4. Pressure switch automatically switches OFF the

2. Compressor can be switched ON
by pulling the plug on the pressure
switch (FIG. 9).

compressor when the pressure inside the tank reaches
8 bar and it automatically switches ON again when it
reaches 6 bar.
Note: The pressure range can be varied with the help of the
screw inside Starter unit.

5. Manually push the On/Off button down to switch off the

compressor when not in use.

OUTLET PRESSURE SETTING

The compressor is capable of producing 8 bar maximum

pressure but there are times when the air pressure required is

outlet can be used to regulate the outlet pressure.
1. Pull the oil dip stick from the crank case (FIG. 4). Steps to set the outlet pressure:

knob on the regulator
(FIG. 10).

 2. Rotate clockwise to increase the outlet pressure and anti-
clockwise to reduce the outlet pressure.
3. Push the adjustment knob down to lock the pressure
setting.
WARNING
Some pressure regulators do not have “push to lock”, therefore
simply turn the knob to adjust the pressure.
2. Clean / Replace the filter element
a. Pull out the Sponge filter element and soak it into a
water bucket and retract and squeeze till all the water
content is squeezed out and then reassemble the
whole filter unit.
b. Replace the sponge Filter element with a new element,
if required.
