1. PRECAUTIONS
An ACOUSTIC PRESSURE value of 4 m. corresponds
to the ACOUSTIC POWER value stated on the label
located on the compressor, minus 20 dB.
This symbol indicates warnings to be read
before using the product so as to prevent injury
to the user.
Warning!
Compressed air is a potentially dangerous form
of energy; always take great care when using the
compressor and its accessories.
Warning!
The compressor may restart when power is restored
following a blackout.
THINGS TO DO
● The compressor must be used in a suitable
environment (well ventilated with an ambient
temperature of between +5°C and +40°C) and never
in places affected by dust, acids, vapors, explosive
or ammable gases.
● Always maintain a safety distance of at least 4 meters
betweenthecompressorandthework+area.
● Any coloring of the belt guards of the compressor during
paintingoperationsindicatesthatthedistanceistooshort.
● Insert the plug of the electric cable in a socket of suitable
shape, voltage and frequency complying with current
regulations.
● Use extension cables with a maximum length of 5 meters
andofsuitablecross-section.
● Theuseofextensioncablesofdifferentlengthandalso
ofadaptersandmultiplesocketsshouldbeavoided.
● Always use the switch I/Otoswitchoffthecompressor.
● Alwaysusethehandletomovethecompressor.
● When operating, the compressor must be placed on a
stable,horizontalsurface.
THINGS NOT TO DO
● Neverdirectthejetofairtowardspersons,animalsoryour
body.(Alwayswearsafetygogglestoprotectyoureyes
againstyingobjectsthatmaybeliftedbythejetofair).
● Neverdirectthejetofliquidssprayedbytoolsconnected
tothecompressortowardsthecompressor.
● Neverusetheappliancewithbarefeetorwethandsorfeet.
● Never pull the power cable to disconnect the plug from
thesocketortomovethecompressor.
● Never leave the appliance exposed to adverse weather
conditions.
● Never transport the compressor with the receiver under
pressure.
● Donotweldormachinethereceiver.Inthecaseoffaults
orrusting,replacetheentirereceiver.
● Neverallowinexperiencedpersonstousethecompressor.
Keep children and animals at a distance from the work
area.
● Thisapplianceisnotintendedforusebypersons(including
children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless
they have been given supervision or instruction concerning
the use of the appliance by a person responsible for
theirsafety.
● Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not
playwiththeappliance.
● DonotpositionammableorNylon®/fabricobjectsclosed
toand/oronthecompressor.
● Nevercleanthecompressorwithammableliquidsor
solvents.Checkthatyouhaveunpluggedthecompressor
andcleanwithadampclothonly.
● Thecompressormustbeusedonlyforaircompression.
Donotusethecompressorforanyothertypeofgas.
● Thecompressedairproducedbythecompressorcannot
not be used for pharmaceutical, food or medical purposes
except after particular treatments and cannot be used to
lltheairbottlesofscubadivers.
● Payattentiontotheworkbeingcarriedout.Usecommon
sense.Donotstandonthecompressor.Donotallowthe
compressortooperateunattended.
THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW
● To avoid overheating of the electric motor, this
compressor is designed for intermittent operation
as indicated on the technical dataplate (for example,
S325%means2.5minutesON,7.5minutesOFF).Inthe
case of overheating, the thermal cutout of the motor trips,
automatically cutting off the power when the temperature
istoohigh.Themotorrestartsautomaticallywhennormal
temperatureconditionsarerestored.
● Allthecompressorsarettedwithasafetyvalvethat
is tripped in the case of malfunctioning of the pressure
switchinordertoassuremachinesafety.
 Thesafetyvalveissettoavoidover-pressurizationof
theairtanks.Thisvalveisfactorypre-setandwillnot
functionunlesstankpressurereachesthispressure.Do
notattempttoadjustoreliminatethissafetydevice.
 Anyadjustmentstothisvalvecouldcauseseriousinjury.
If this device requires service or maintenance, see an
AuthorizedServiceCenter.
● The red notch on the pressure gauge refers to the
maximum operating pressure of the tank. It does not
refertotheadjustedpressure.
● When tting a tool, the ow of air in output must be
switchedoff.
● When using compressed air, you must know and comply
with the safety precautions to be adopted for each type of
