KNOW YOUR AIR COMPRESSOR

Before attempting to use this product, familiarize yourself with all operating features and safety rules. (Fig. 2)

OIL-FREE BRUSHLESS MOTOR

Your air compressor features permanently lubricated bearings. POWER SWITCH (Pressure switch inside) This switch is used to start or stop the air compressor. Moving the power switch to the (ON) position will provide automatic power to the pressure switch which will allow the motor to start when the tank pressure is below the factory set cut-in pressure. When in the (ON) position, the pressure switch stops the motor when the tank pressure reaches the factory set cut-out pressure. Moving the power switch to the (OFF) position will remove power from the motor and stop the air compressor.

ELECTRIC MOTOR & AIR COMPRESSOR PUMP

The motor is used to power the pump. The electric motor has a thermal overload protector. If the motor overheats for any reason, the thermal overload will cut off power, thus preventing the motor from being damaged. Wait until the motor is cool. Motor resets automatically. Air compressor pump: to compress air, the piston moves up and down in the cylinder. On the down stroke, air is drawn in through the air intake valve while the exhaust valve remains closed. On the upstroke, air is compressed, the intake valve closes and compressed air is forced out through the exhaust valve, into the discharge line, through the check valve and into the tank. SAFETY VALVE This valve is designed to prevent system failures by relieving pressure from the system when the compressed air reaches a predetermined level. The valve is preset by the manufacturer and must not be modifi ed in any way. DRAIN VALVE The drain valve is used to remove moisture from the tank.

The tank pressure gauge indicates the pressure of the air in the tank.

REGULATOR PRESSURE GAUGE

The current line pressure is displayed on the regulator pressure gauge. This pressure can be adjusted by rotating the pressure regulator knob.

PRESSURE REGULATOR KNOB

Use the pressure regulator knob to adjust the amount of air being delivered through the hose. The air pressure coming from the tank is controlled by the regulator knob. Turn the pressure regulator knob clockwise to increase discharge pressure and counterclockwise to decrease discharge pressure. Follow tool operating instructions for recommended pressure range. TANK The tank is used to store the compressed air. QUICK COUPLER The outlet is used to connect the 1/4 in. NPT air hose.

Regarding electric discharge in case of new batteries, etc. As the internal chemical substance of new batteries and batteries that have not been used for an extended period is not activated, the electric discharge might be low when using them the fi rst and second time. This is a temporary phenomenon, and normal time required for recharging will be restored by recharging the batteries 2–3 times. 00BookEC36DANA.indb1600BookEC36DANA.indb16 2021/07/089:36:162021/07/089:36:1617 English How to make the batteries perform longer (1) Recharge the batteries before they become completely exhausted. When you feel that the power of the tool becomes weaker, stop using the tool and recharge its battery. If you continue to use the tool and exhaust the electric current, the battery may be damaged and its life will become shorter. (2) Avoid recharging at high temperatures. A rechargeable battery will be hot immediately after use. If such a battery is recharged immediately after use, its internal chemical substance will deteriorate, and the battery life will be shortened. Leave the battery and recharge it after it has cooled for a while. CAUTION

When the battery charger has been continuosly used, the battery charger will be heated, thus constituting the cause of the failures. Once the charging has been completed, give 15 minutes rest until the next charging.

If the battery is charged while it is heated because it has been left for a long time in a location subject to direct sunlight or because the battery has just been used, the charge indicator lamp of the charger lights for 0.3 seconds, does not light for 0.3 seconds (off for 0.3 seconds). In such a case, fi rst let the battery cool, then start charging.

When the charge indicator lamp fl ickers (at 0.2–second intervals), check for and take out any foreign objects in the charger’s battery installation hole. If there are no foreign objects, it is probable that the battery or charger is malfunctioning. Take it to your authorized Service Center.

Match hoses, connectors, air tools, and accessories to the capabilities of the air compressor. You may use this compressor for purposes listed below:

Operating air powered tools requiring less than

Powering pneumatic nail guns, infl ating tires, cleaning / blowing with pressurized air. WARNING Do not allow familiarity with compressor and tools to make you careless. Remember that a careless fraction of a second is suffi cient to infl ict serious injury. WARNING Always wear safety goggles or safety glasses with side shields when operating compressor. Failure to do so could result in objects being thrown into your eyes resulting in possible serious injury. CAUTION Do not use in an environment that is dusty or otherwise contaminated. Using the air compressor in this type of environment may cause damage to the unit.

CHECKING THE SAFETY VALVE

Before starting compressor, pull the ring on the safety valve to make sure that the safety valve operates smoothly. (Fig. 12) Do not use compressor if the safety valve is stuck or does not operate smoothly. Have defective safety valve replaced by a metabo HPT authorized service center. WARNING Drain tank to release air pressure before pull the ring on the safety valve. WARNING Risk of bursting. If the safety valve does not work properly, over- pressurization may occur, causing tank rupture or an explosion. Safety valve Pull Fig. 12

Temperature Operating temperatures are between 32°F and 104°F (0°C and 40°C). CAUTION Never operate in temperatures below 32°F (0°C) or above 104°F (40°C). WARNING Always ensure the power switch is in the OFF (O) position and the regulator pressure gauge reads zero before changing air tools or disconnecting the hose from the air outlet. Failure to do so could result in possible serious personal injury.

Ensure the drain valve is closed (Fig. 13).

Ensure the power switch is in the OFF (O) position and the battery is removed.

Ensure the pressure regulator knob is turned fully counterclockwise (Fig. 13). 00BookEC36DANA.indb1800BookEC36DANA.indb18 2021/07/089:36:172021/07/089:36:1719 English Drain valve (closed) Power switch Pressure regulator knob Fig. 13

If not already installed, attach the hose to the compressor.

Connect the air powered tools to the air hose by inserting the male quick-connect plug to the quick- coupler at the end of the hose (Fig. 14). Pneumatic tool (not included) Air hose with quick coupler fi tting (not included) Male quick- connect plug Fig. 14

Install the battery.

Turn the power switch to the ON ( I ) position.

Adjustment of outlet pressure Pull the pressure regulator knob to allow the knob to rotate. Then, adjust the outlet pressure to the required level by turning the pressure regulator knob clockwise to increase the outlet pressure and counterclockwise to decrease it. A regulator pressure gauge is provided to show when the required pressure is reached. When adjusting the pressure, check and make sure that a tank pressure gauge for the tank has the pressure level that is higher than that of the pressure to be adjusted. It is also imperative that you make adjustment by slowly starting up the pressure from the level that is lower than the pressure to be adjusted. After adjusting the outlet pressure, push in the pressure regulator knob to lock the knob and use the tool. NOTE: Before connecting or disconnecting air tools, turn the regulator knob counterclockwise to stop the fl ow of air.

Following all safety precautions in this manual and the manufacturer’s instructions in the air tool manual, you may now use your air-powered tool.

If using an infl ation accessory with a quick-connect fi tting, control the amount of air fl ow with the pressure regulator knob. Turning the knob fully counterclockwise will completely stop the fl ow of air. NOTE: Always use the minimum amount of pressure necessary for your application. Using a higher pressure than needed will drain air from the tank more rapidly and cause the unit to cycle on more frequently.

When fi nished, always drain the tank and remove the battery. Never leave the unit plugged in and/or running unattended. WARNING Check the air tool manual to ensure the correct air pressure regulator setting for optimum operation of your air tools. If you are using an air tool not originally included in the package contents list (not necessarily supplied with the air compressor model you have purchased), your tool may require more air consumption than this air compressor is designed to supply. Always read your air tool owner’s manual to match the correct air supply to your air tool to avoid damage to the tool or risk of personal injury. NOTE: When the compressor is new, it will require a “break-in” period to reach maximum performance. The typical break-in period is four discharge cycles of the battery using the BSL36B18 battery.

To help prevent tank corrosion and keep moisture out of the air used, the tank of the compressor should be drained daily. To drain the tank: (Fig. 15)

Verify that the compressor is turned off .

Holding the handle, tilt the compressor toward the drain valve so that it’s set in a lower position.

Open the drain valve by rotating it 1/4 turn counterclockwise.

Keep the compressor tilted until all moisture has been removed.

Drain moisture from tank into a suitable container. 00BookEC36DANA.indb1900BookEC36DANA.indb19 2021/07/089:36:172021/07/089:36:1720 English NOTE: Condensate is a polluting material and should be disposed of in compliance with local regulations.

If drain valve is clogged, release all air pressure by pulling the safety valve. Remove and clean valve, then reinstall. WARNING Remove the battery from the air compressor and release all air from the tank before servicing. Failure to depressurize tank before attempting to remove valve may cause serious personal injury.

Close the drain valve by rotating it 1/4 turn clockwise. Drain valve (closed) Drain valve (open) Fig. 15

Turn the power switch to the OFF position.

Open the drain valve located at the lower part of the tank (Fig. 15). Tank pressure should be below 10 psi when draining the tank. WARNING Risk of bursting. When the tank gets corroded, there is a risk of breakdown. Water will condense in the tank. If not drained, water will corrode and weaken the tank causing a risk of tank rupture. Drain tank daily or after 4 hours of use. The drain contains moisture in the air, abrasion particles, rust, etc.. To drain tank open valve slowly and tilt compressor to empty accumulated water. Keep face and eyes away from drain cock.
