PREPARATION FOR STARTING
6. Open the outlet valve, set the
power switch knob to position “on”
and let the compressor run for 10
minutes with no load to ensure the
moving parts are lubricated before
regular service.
PRESSURE GAUGES
There are two pressure gauges on the
compressor.
1. The pressure gauge on the RIGHT
shows the current pressure in the
reservoir tank.
2. The pressure gauge on
the LEFT shows the ‘user set’ outlet
pressure. This can be adjusted using
the regulator.
1. The compressor is controlled by a pressure switch. It can be
stopped automatically as the pressure increases to the maximum
and restarted as pressure decreases to the minimum. The rated
pressure has been adjusted during the manufacturing process
- don’t alter it carelessly. As soon as the motor is switched off
the compressed air in the discharge pipe should be released
through the release valve under the switch. This is a necessary
condition before restarting or the motor will be damaged. The
rated pressure can be altered by turning the adjusting screw.
