If the cable or connector needs to be replaced or repaired, seek a specialized technician.

ATTENTION

For installation of motors with output starting at 2 HP, the use of an Electromagnetic Switch (Magnetic Starter Switch) is required. Failure to install such equipment in The power distribution network should not have voltage variation greater than +/10%.

The voltage drop caused by the startup spike should not be more than 10%.

We recommend the installation of a phase failure relay at the electrical board for three-phase motors, if not included.

For your safety, installation should have a grounding conductor to prevent electrical discharge (shock).

Never use the ground socket instead of the neutral wire. The ground connection must be made to meet safety standards (EN60204). The plug of the power cable must not be used as a switch, but must be fitted in a power socket controlled by a suitable differential switch (thermal breaker).

When first starting compressors operation in 3-phase voltage, check the rotation direction of the cooling fan by comparing it with the direction of the arrow on the belt guard or on the protective housing.

WARNING

Do not operate compressor if damaged during shipping, handling or use. Damage may result in bursting and cause injury or property damage

The level of acoustic pressure can increase from 1 to 10 dB(A) according to the place in which the compressor is installed.

5 Initial startup procedures The operator must apply all relevant Safety precautions.

If the compressor has not run for the past 6 months, it is strongly recommended to improve the lubrication of the compressor element: drain the oil, refill the compressor with the same oil while turning the crankshaft.

The initial startup procedure should be performed right after installing the compressor, carried out in the following order: 1.

Check the oil level, which should be at the middle of the sight gauge (figure 4).

Pass thread sealer on at the side outlets and check that there is no air leakage from them.

Fully open the valve.

Leave the compressor running for about 10 minutes so that all compressor parts are lubricated, and check the electrical installation.

Fully close the valve so that the compressor fills the tank completely. Low- and high-pressure compressors will either shut off (via the pressure switch) or relieve (via pilot/discharge valves, if installed) automatically, when the pressure gauge indicates the maximum permissible pressure.

Check that the safety valve is working (figure 6).

Open the purge valve to drain the condensate (water) from the tank and then close it (figure 5). Take care if there is compressed air inside the tank, and water could flow out with considerable force. Recommended pressure: 1 2 bar max (15 30 psi max).

Tank subjected to freezing temperatures may contain ice. Store the compressor in a heated area before attempting to drain moisture from the tank.

Condensate of compressor that are oil lubricated must not be drained into the sewer or dispersed in the environment as it contains oil.

Open the valve to fully drain the tank and then close it.

Now your compressor is ready to operate normally. Connect it to the air distribution network and start the electric motor. When the compressor reaches maximum pressure, open the valve to let the compressed air flow to the distribution network.

10. Check for leaks along the tubing using a water and soap solution and take any appropriate measures.

Figure 4 - Oil level

Figure 5 - Tank drain plug

Figure 6 - Safety Valve Test

Note: Perform this procedure after any maintenance or change of compressor location.

6 Operation supervision 6.1 Preparation for Startup Check the oil level through the sight gauge - at the middle of the level sight gauge. If the oil level needs to be replenished, use the original recommended oil from manufacturer.

6.2 Starting Turn the compressor on and check its operation. If abnormal noises or movements occur, discontinue use your nearest Technical Assistance.

DANGER The compressor should not be turned on without belt protection. The compressor can start automatically without warning and physical and material damage could occur from contact with moving parts.

When the temperature is <50°F, it is recommended to depressurize the tank again, in case the compressor has stopped at low temperature within 30 minutes from the first start up.

The single phase versions are fitted with a pressure switch equipped with a delayed closing air vent valve that facilitates motor start-up; therefore a few seconds jet of air from this, with the reservoir empty, is to be considered normal.

ADJUSTING OPERATING PRESSURE You do not have to use the maximum operating pressure at all times. On the contrary, the pneumatic tool being used often requires less pressure. On compressors supplied with a pressure reducer, operating

23

Instruction Book

pressure must be correctly adjusted. Release the pressure reducer knob by pulling it up, adjust pressure to the required value by turning the knob clockwise to increase pressure and counterclockwise to reduce it.

When you have obtained optimum pressure, lock the knob by pressing it downward. For pressure reducers equipped without a pressure gauge, the set pressure can be seen on the graduated scale located on the reducer body. On pressure reducers equipped with a pressure gauge, pressure can be seen on the gauge itself.

WARNING: Some pressure regulators do not have "push to lock", therefore simply turn the knob to adjust the pressure.

MOTOR PROTECTION This compressor is built to operate with an intermittent ratio specified on rating plate (for example S3 50% means 5 minutes ON and 5 minutes OFF). In case of overheating, the thermal cutout of the motor trips, automatically cutting off the power when the temperature is too high due to excess current take-off.

To facilitate machine restart, it is important not only to carry out the operations indicated but also to set the button of the pressure switch to the OFF position first and then ON again.

On single-phase versions, press the reset button on the terminal box of the motor.

On 3-phases versions, operate manually on the button of the pressure switch, returning this to the ON position, or press the button of the thermal cutout inside the box of the electric panel.

6.3 Stopping 1. Turn the switch to position 0 (Off).

2. Switch off the voltage.

If a compressor with pressure switch stops during operation because of a power failure, the pressure from the air outlet pipe must be released by moving the switch on top of the air pressure switch to 0 (Off) to prevent the compressor from restarting against back-pressure when the power becomes live again.

WARNING Release pressure within the system slowly to prevent flying dust and debris.

WARNING If the equipment starts to abnormally vibrate, STOP the compressor immediately and check for the cause.

6.4

Gas Drive Models PLEASE REFER TO YOUR ENGINE OPERATION MANUAL FOR PROPER TRANSPORT, STARTING, STOPPING, FUELING AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS. READ SAFETY WARNINGS BEFORE PERFORMING OPERATIONS. CAUTION Gasoline Compressors must be operated outdoors, sheltered from the weather

Gasoline driven compressors are equipped with a cold start valve for loadless starts.

Note: in some instances, it still may be necessary to lift the toggle on the unloader/pilot valve to relieve the head pressure.

Battery Connection Instructions for Electric Start Engines Note: Make sure to follow instructions carefully to avoid a short and possible damage to the starter solenoid and/or battery.

WARNING

Compressor produces sparks during operation. Never use compressor in sites containing lacquer, paint, benzine, thinner, gasoline, gases, adhesive agents, and other materials which are combustible or explosive.

This compressor contains some components parts that tend to produce arcs or sparks, and therefore, when located in a garage, it should be in a room or enclosure provided for this purpose, and should be 18 inches (457 mm) or more above the floor. A spark arrester must be added to the muffler of this engine if it is to be used on any forest covered, brush covered or grass covered unimproved land. The arrester must be maintained in effective working condition by the operator.

Release any remaining tank pressure by slowly opening the manual drain valve.

Turn on the engine gasoline supply.

Close the service valve and put toggle ON position .

Start the engine, release the choke, and allow the engine to warm up for two to three minutes.

Return the toggle OFF position .

The operation of this compressor is automatic and is controlled by the pilot valve which idles it when the pressure in the air-tank reaches the maximum level and restarts it when the air pressure drops during use to the restart level. The pilot valve is preset by the manufacturer and must not be modified in any way.

25

7 Maintenance 7.1 Electric Motor The electric motor (factory mounted) has self-lubricating bearings.

7.2 Compressor DANGER Make sure the compressor is disconnected from the power grid and that its air tank is empty before performing any maintenance or service.

Maintenance kits are available for any service or preventive maintenance operation.

In maintenance operations where the compressor unit is opened, replace components that are loose in the repair process, such as gaskets, O-rings and washers. Always use genuine parts.

Daily

Operating Hours -

Period

Operation - Check the oil level before starting up.

After stopping, drain the condensate from the tank.

Verify the pressure switch unloader is working by listening for a brief hissing sound when the compressor shuts off.

Visually check the compressor for loose parts, excessive noise or vibration.

Tighten any necessary part.

- Clean the filtering element with a blast of dry compressed air, and if there is oil in the opposite direction of the air intake flow.

ATTENTION: never use pressure higher than 40 psi.

Annually

-

- Check for possible leaks at joints, valves, connections and tubing.

These occurrences are possible due to the way every piston compressor that presents natural vibration is built. The original factory tightening torque on bolts and connections can thus be compromised.

- Inspect the vanes (located between the top of the cylinder and the cylinder cap), and clean if necessary.

- Calibrate the safety valve with the relevant entity.

After 5 Years

-

- Perform a hydrostatic test on the air tank with the relevant entity.

Note: The instructions above are based on normal operating conditions. If the compressor is installed in a polluted area, increase the frequency of inspections.

7.3 Belt Adjustment Tension setting: The belt should not be tight or loose. It requires adjustment to prevent premature wear or belt sliding. Check the proper adjustment in the figure on the side.

27

Instruction Book

Figure 8 The belt must be aligned. To do so, the motor pulley and the compressor as well. See the figure.

Figure 9

Belt adjustment

ATTENTION

When out of alignment, the belt is subject to the following damage: belt wear and breakage, abnormal noise, tremors, and it may come loose from the flywheel, causing damage to the equipment.

Be careful not to over tighten belts during adjustment.

28

Ins truction Book

7.4 Air filter The air filter for intake is a component that protects the air inlet on the compressor unit.

It protects against the ingress of dust and iron filings, which hinder the proper functioning of your compressor.

The filter does not protect against the entry of gases, such as carbon monoxide (CO) carbon dioxide (CO2).

The generated compressed air is unsuitable for human consumption.

Quarterly or every 600 hours, replace the filtering element.

For services in which the required air must be free of oil or dust particles, an air dryer that uses cooling and special air filters must be installed after the compressor or near the workplace. Consult a specialized technician for more information.

WARNING

Never clean filter element with a flammable liquid or solvent.

CAUTION

Do not operate without the air intake filter.

Figure 10 Filter element

Figure 11 Internal lubrication

7.5 Lubricant oil The oil inside the compressor unit is agitated by the splash, lubricating the entire internal part of the equipment.

The purpose of the oil in the compressor unit is to lubricate parts under constant friction, thereby preventing overheating and wear on parts.

Perform a full oil change in the compressor head unit regularly as indicated below. Failure to comply with this item may cause damage to the compressor unit.

It is strongly recommended to use the original oil from manufacturer for piston compressors to keep the compressor in excellent operating condition.

Traditional lubricants cannot cope with the extreme conditions of piston compressors, resulting in a fast oil degradation, overheating and potentially irreversible damage and high repair costs. Therefore, high performing lubricants increase the equipment lifetime.

Considering the low oil content in piston compressors, the economy of lesser quality oils simply is not worth the risk.

29

Instruction Book

Oil change 1st change - after 100 hours of operation Next changes - after 300 hours of operation or 1 year if use synthetic oil after 500 hours of operation or 1 year if use mineral oil Whichever comes first.

Instructions for oil change: Remove the plug from the oil inlet and then the plug from the oil outlet. Prepare a recipient to deposit the removed oil.

After draining all the oil, place the drain plug.

Use a funnel and fill with new oil until the level reaches the middle of the oil level sight gauge (for oil quantity, refer to the technical characteristics table, item 3).

ATTENTION

Never mix different types or brands of oils.

Check the amount of oil according to the compressor model.

Figure 12

Oil Change

ATTENTION

Important: Oil changed later than recommended could seriously damage the compressor.

30

Ins truction Book

Do not drain used oil into the sewer or dispose of it in the environment

7.6

Air receiver Corrosion must be prevented: depending on the conditions of use, condensate may accumulate inside the tank and must be drained every day. This may be done manually, by opening the drain valve, or by means of the automatic drain, if fitted to the tank. Nevertheless, a weekly check of correct functioning of the automatic valve is needed. This has to be done by opening the manual drain valve and checking for condensate.

Periodic service inspection of the air receiver is needed, as internal corrosion can reduce the steel wall thickness with the consequent risk of bursting. Local rules need to be respected, if applicable.

Lifetime of the air receiver mainly depends on the working environment. Avoid installing the compressor in a dirty and corrosive environment, as this can reduce the vessel lifetime dramatically.

Use the vessel within the pressure and temperature limits stated on the nameplate No alterations must be made to this vessel by welding, drilling or other mechanical methods.
