SAFETY GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS This compressor should be grounded while in use to protect the operator from electric shock.The compressor is equipped with a three-conductor cord and three-prong grounding type plug to fit the proper grounding type receptacle. The green (or green and yellow) conductor in the cord is the grounding wire. Never connect the green (or green and yellow) wire to a live terminal. If your units is for use on less than 150 volts, it has a plug that looks like that shown in sketch (A) in figure on the right. An adapter, see sketches (B) and (C), is available for connecting sketch (A) type plugs to two-prong receptacles. The green-colored rigid ear, lug, or the like extending from the adapter must be connected to a permanent ground, such as a properly grounded outlet box. NOTE: the grounding adaptor, sketch (C), is prohibited in Canada by Canadian Electrical Code Part.1. Therefore, the instructions for its use are not applicable in Canada. EXTENSION CORD Use only three-extension cords that have three-prong grounding type plugs and three-pole receptables that accept the compressor’s plug. Replace or repair damaged cord. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product 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 cord lenght and name plate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gage. The smaller the gage number, the heavier the cord. Tab.1 SECTION VALID FOR A MAX LENGHT OF 20 mt single- phase HP kW 220/230V 50 Hz (mm²) 110/120V 60 Hz (mm²)

AVAILABLE OTHER USERS OF THIS TOOL! OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE NOTE: The information contained in this Instruction Manual is designed to assist you in the safe operation and maintenance of the compressor. Some illustrations in this Instruction Manual may show details or attachments that differ from those on your own compressor. INSTALLATION After having removed the compressor from its packing (fig. 1) and having checked its perfect integrity, making sure that it has not been damaged during transport, proceed as follows. COMPRESSOR WITH TANK (FIG.20) Fit the wheels and the rubbers on the tanks where these have not been fitted, following the instructions provided in fig. 2. Also fit the air filter (fig. 2B) in compressors in which this has not been fitted. COMPRESSOR WITHOUT TANK (FIG.21) Fit the suction cups underneath the base of the unit as indicated in fi g.2A. Position the compressor on a flat surface or one with an inclination of 10° at the most (fig. 3), in a well-ventilated area away from atmospheric agents and not in explosive areas. If the surface is sloping and smooth, make sure that the compressor does not move while running, otherwise block the wheels with two wedges. If the surface consists of a shelf or the ledge of a stand, make sure that it may not fall off by securing it appropriately. The compressor must be positioned at least 50 cm away from any walls to ensure its ideal ventilation and effective cooling. (fig. 4). THIS COMPRESSOR RUNS WITHOUT OIL (4A)

OPERATIONAL INSTRUCTIONS - Transport the compressor in the correct manner without tipping it or lifting it with hooks or ropes. (fig. 5 - 6) ELECTRICAL CONNECTION The single-phase compressors are supplied complete with an electrical cable and two-pole + earth power plug. The compressor must be connected to a power socket provided with earth connection. (fig. 7)

The earth connection must be achieved according to the industrial safety standards (EN 60204). The plug of the power supply cable must not be used as a switch but must be plugged into a power socket that is controlled by a suitable differential switch (magneto thermal switch). STARTING Make sure that the mains voltage corresponds to that indicated on the electrical data nameplate (fig. 8), the admitted tolerance range must remain within ± 5%. COMPRESSOR WITH TANK (Fig. 20): Turn or press, depending on the type of pressure switch fitted on the equipment, the knob situated in the upper part to «0» (fig. 9). Put the plug in the power socket (fi g. 7) and turn the knob to «I». Attach the rubber hose or the spiral type hose to the appropriate fi tting situated near the pressure switch (fig.25). The compressor runs in a completely automatic manner and is controlled by the pressure switch that stops it when the pressure inside the tank reaches the maximum pressure and starts it again when the pressure falls back down to the minimum level. The difference in pressure is usually 2 bar (29 psi) roughly between the maximum and minimum value. I.e.: the compressor stops when it reaches 8 bar (116 psi) (max. running pressure) and is automatically re-started when the pressure inside the tank falls to 6 bar (87 psi). After having connected the compressor to the electrical power supply line, load to the maximum pressure and check the correct efficiency of the machine. COMPRESSOR WITHOUT TANK (Fig. 21): Put the plug in the power socket (fig. 7). Press the starting push button situated at the side of the compressor (fig. 9A). This type of compressor is provided with a device that automatically controls the maximum working pressure even if the user is not using compressed air.The compressor automatically releases the excess air from a valve situated on the head. The compressor does not stop automatically. Use the ON/OFF push button to stop the compressor. Attach the rubber hose or the spiral type hose to the appropriate fitting situated at the top of the compressor, near the gear motor (fig. 25). NOTE: The head/cylinder/delivery hose unit situated beneath the panelling may reach high temperatures therefore be careful when working near these components and do not touch them to avoid getting burned (fig. 10).17

WARNING The electric compressors must be connected to a power socket that is safeguarded by a suitable differential switch (magneto thermal switch). ADJUSTING THE WORKING PRESSURE (fi g. 11) It is not always necessary to use the maximum working pressure, on the contrary the pneumatic tool usually requires less pressure. Adjust the working pressure accurately in compressors provided with pressure regulators. Release the knob of the pressure regulator by pulling it outwards, adjust the pressure to the desired value by turning the knob clockwise to increase it and anti-clockwise to decrease it. Once the ideal pressure has been reached, block the knob by pushing it downwards (fig. 11). In the case of pressure regulators supplied without a gauge, the calibration pressure may be seen on the graduated scale situated on the casing of the actual regulator. In the case of pressure regulators supplied with a gauge, the calibration pressure may be seen on the actual gauge.

WARNING: Some pressure regulators do not have “push to lock”,

therefore simply turn the knob to adjust the pressure. MAINTENANCE Before servicing the compressor make sure that: - the main line ON/OFF switch is on «0». - the pressure switch or the line switch is on «0». - there is no pressure in the air tank (only for model with tank). The compressor generates condensate that accumulates in the tank. The condensate must be drained from the tank at least once a week by opening the discharge tap (fig. 12) underneath the tank (only for model with tank). Be careful if there is any compressed air within the cylinder as the water could burst out with some force. Recommended pressure 1 ÷ 2 bar max. RECOMMENDED MAINTENANCE In units F with 2 poles, replace the whole connecting rod unit every 700 hours of operation. In units F and FB with 4 poles, replace the whole connecting rod unit every 1500 hours of operation. In units GMS and VS, replace the sliding blocks and the compression ring every 1500 hours of operation.

LUBRICATING THE BEARINGS

All the bearings are lubricated with grease for life with the exception of the roller casing fi tted on the connecting rod side of the GMS and VS units which is to be washed with solvent and re- lubricated with “Kluber Barrierta L 55/2” grease every 1500 hours of operation (white grease). The grease must completely fill the spaces between the rollers; excess lubricant will be expelled during the initial hours of operation. CLEANING THE FILTER (F-FB-ECU-GMS-VS Series-AIRCLIK-F

It is advisable to dismantle the suction filter every 50 hours of use and to clean the fi ltering element by blowing it with compressed air, or replace it if the element pointed out by the arrow is clogged.

HOW TO PROCEED WHEN TRIVIAL ANOMALIES

ARE ENCOUNTERED Loss of air from the valve underneath the pressure switch (only model with tank) This inconvenience is due to the imperfect seal of the non-return valve; proceed as follows: (fig. 13). Release all the pressure from the tank. Remove the panelling by unscrewing the four securing screws and lift it. (fig. 13-14) (F 1 and AIRCLIK) . Unscrew the hexagonal head of the valve (A)(fig.15). Carefully clean the small rubber disk (B) and also its seat (fig.15). Re-fi t everything accurately. Loss of air (F-GMS-VS Series) This may be due to the poor seal of one of the fittings. Check all the fittings by wetting them with soapy water. The compressor runs but fails to load F-GMS-VS series compressors: (fi g.16) - This may be due to a breakage of the valve, or a gasket (B1- B2). Replace the damaged component. - This may be due to a breakage of the valves (C1-C2), or a gasket (B1-B2). Replace the damaged component (fig.16B). AirClik-F 1 series (fig. 16A): - This may be due to the breakage of the valves (C1 - C2) or of the gasket (B1). Replace the damaged part (fig. 16A). The compressor fails to start If the compressor has difficulty in starting, make sure that: -the mains voltage corresponds to that indicated on the data nameplate (fi g. 8) - electrical extension cables with unsuitable cross-section or length are not used. - the room in which the compressor is running is not too cold (below 0°C) - the electric line is efficient (plug connected correctly, magneto thermal switch, fuses not blown) The compressor fails to stop (only with tank) if the compressor fails to stop when the maximum pressure is reached, the tank safety valve will trip. Contact the nearest authorised service centre for the repairs. WARNING - Do not unscrew any connections with the tank when under pressure for any reason whatsoever. Always make sure that the tank is depressurised beforehand. - Do not drill, weld or intentionally deform the compressed air tank. - Do not carry out any operations on the compressor before it has been unplugged from the power socket. - The room temperature for its correct efficiency is: 0°C +25°C (MAX 45°C). - Do not direct jets of water or flammable liquids over the compressor. - Do not place flammable objects near the compressor. - When stopped temporarily during its use, turn the pressure switch or the ON/OFF switch to position «0» (OFF) (turned- off). - Never direct the jet of air towards people or animals (fig. 24). - Do not transport the compressor when the tank is pressurised. - Be aware that some components of the compressor such as the head and delivery hoses may reach high temperatures, therefore do not touch the to avoid getting burned (fig. 10). - Transport the compressor by lifting or pulling it with the appropriate grips or handles (fig. 5 - 6). - Children and animals must be kept away from the area in which the machine is running. If the compressor is used for painting: a) Do not work in closed areas or near free flames b) Make sure that the area in which you are working has a good change of air c) Protect nose and mouth using an appropriate mask (fig. 18). - Do not use the compressor if the electric cable or the plug is damaged. - Contact the nearest authorised service centre for the replacement with an original component. - If it is placed on a shelf or a surface that is raised off the ground, it must be secured appropriately to prevent it from tipping off when running. - Do not insert objects or your hands inside the safety grating to avoid physical damage and also damage to the compressor (fig. 19). - Do not use the compressor to threaten people or animals to avoid serious injuries. - Always unplug the compressor from the power socket when you have finished using it.
