Frequently Asked Questions - D500SR Paasche

How do I adjust the air pressure on the Paasche D500SR?

Lift the black knob on the R-75 regulator. While pressing the airbrush trigger, twist the knob clockwise to increase pressure or counterclockwise to decrease. Once desired pressure is reached, push the knob down to lock the setting.

What should I do if the compressor stops running?

The motor has a thermal protector that shuts off if it overheats. Unplug the compressor and allow it to cool for about 5 minutes, then restart. Ensure the working area is well-ventilated.

Can I use an extension cord with this compressor?

Yes, use a 3-wire grounded extension cord. For 25 feet, use 16 gauge; 50 feet, 14 gauge; 100 feet, 12 gauge. Undersized cords cause voltage drop and overheating.

Why does the compressor not shut off?

This compressor has an automatic shut-off feature. If it does not shut off, check for air leaks at the hose connections. Use PTFE tape on threads to seal leaks. A leak can cause continuous running.

What type of power supply does the D500SR require?

It requires a 110-120 volt, 60 Hz grounded outlet. Do not use other voltages.

How do I ground the compressor?

The compressor has a grounding plug. Plug into a properly grounded outlet. Never remove the grounding prong. If using an extension cord, ensure it is a 3-wire grounded cord.

What accessories are recommended for this compressor?

Recommended accessories include HFM manifolds for multiple hose hookups, hose adapters (HF-592 or HF-116), A-194 airbrush holder, and AC-7 airbrush cleaning brushes.

How do I clean and maintain the Paasche D500SR?

No lubrication is needed. Keep the unit clean and dust-free. Use AC-7 cleaning brushes for the airbrush. Store in a dry place. Ensure the regulator moisture trap is emptied regularly.

What safety precautions should I take when using this compressor?

Always work in a well-ventilated area away from flammable liquids. Wear safety goggles. Never point the nozzle at people. Keep out of reach of children. Disconnect power before servicing.

Can I use this compressor for spraying paints other than those for airbrushing?

The compressor is designed for airbrushing with a working pressure of 0-35 PSI. It can be used with Paasche airbrushes and compatible spray guns. Ensure the material is suitable for low pressure spraying.

GENERAL & SAFETY INFORMATION

GENERAL INFORMATION

The maximum pressure of the compressor is 0-35 PSI. The maximum operating pressure while spraying will vary depending on size of fluid tip, needle and aircap.

THERMAL PROTECTOR

The motor of this compressor has a thermal overload protector. If the motor should overheat, the overload protector will shut off the motor. If this should occur, unplug the compressor and allow the motor to cool (approx. 5 minutes) and restart compressor.

SEALING OF AIR HOSE

When attaching the female pipe thread fitting from your air hose to the compressor, it may be necessary to use a quality pipe thread sealant or PTFE pipe thread tape on the threaded air outlet of the compressor. Failure to do so may cause an air leak and your compressor will not shut off as it should. NOTE: This unit does not require any lubricants or oil. Applying oil to any part could result in damage to the compressor. All bearings, including those in the motor, are grease packed.

AUTOMATIC SHUT-OFF FEATURE

This compressor has a built-in pressure switch that automatically shuts-off the compressor when the airbrush is not in use. The compressor will automatically stop when the airbrush is not in use. It will immediately start again as soon as the air is allowed to flow through the airbrush.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This product must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. This product is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

EXTENSION CORDS – If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug and a 3-slot receptacle that will accept the plug on the product. Make certain your extension cord is in good condition. Make certain your extension cord wire is not less than 16 gauge for 25 feet, 14 gauge for 50 feet and 12 gauge for 100 feet. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.

WARNINGS

• Only use 110-120 volt, 60 cycle power supply for this compressor.
• Before plugging in check to make sure compressor is in good condition.
• Only operate compressor in accordance with current safety regulations.
• Keep working area clean and uncluttered and make sure area is well ventilated. Never operate the compressor in the presence of flammable liquids or gases.
• Compressor air can produce dust, dirt and loose particles it comes in contact with. To prevent possible injury always wear safety goggles or glasses. Never point any nozzle or spray toward a person.
• The air compressor is powered by electricity. Like and electric device, If not used properly it can cause electric shock.
• Keep out of reach of children.
