5. Instruccions de funcionament
5.1 Posada en marxa inicial
- Ensure the drain valve at the bottom of the tank is closed.
- Turn the pressure regulator knob counter-clockwise to the lowest setting.
- Gireu l'interruptor d'engegada/apagada a la posició "On". El compressor començarà a generar pressió.
- Allow the compressor to run until it reaches its maximum pressure and automatically shuts off. This allows the tank to be fully pressurized.
- Check for any air leaks around connections.
5.2 Connecting Air Tools/Accessories
- Ensure the compressor is off or the air outlet is closed before connecting tools.
- Attach your air hose to the quick-connect air outlet.
- Connect your desired air tool or accessory to the other end of the hose.
5.3 Ajust de la pressió de l'aire
- With the compressor running and the tank pressurized, turn the pressure regulator knob clockwise to increase the output pressure.
- Observe the regulated pressure gauge to set the desired working pressure for your tool.
- Turn the knob counter-clockwise to decrease pressure.
5.4 Tancament
- Turn the On/Off switch to the "Off" position.
- Disconnect the air hose and tools.
- Slowly open the drain valve at the bottom of the tank to release any condensed moisture and residual air pressure. This is crucial for preventing rust inside the tank.
- Close the drain valve after all air and moisture have been expelled.
6. Manteniment
Un manteniment regular garanteix la longevitat i el rendiment òptim del vostre compressor d'aire.
- Buidar el dipòsit diàriament: Always drain the moisture from the air tank after each use. Condensed water can cause rust and weaken the tank, leading to potential hazards.
- Filtre d'aire net: Periodically inspect and clean or replace the air filter. A clogged filter reduces compressor efficiency.
- Inspeccioneu les mànegues i les connexions: Regularly check air hoses for cracks, cuts, or wear. Ensure all connections are secure and free of leaks.
