Key Components:

• Motor Unit: Powers the compressor, 150 Watt.
• Air Tank: 3-liter capacity for consistent air pressure.
• Pressure Regulator: Adjusts the output air pressure.
• Manometer: Displays the current air pressure.
• Air Filter/Water Trap: Removes moisture and impurities from the air.
• Auto-Stop Function: Automatically shuts off when desired pressure is reached, saving energy.
• Carrying Handle: For easy transport.

Setup

Follow these steps to set up your AMUR UNIVERSAL II Airbrush Compressor:

1. Unpack: Carefully remove all components from the packaging.
2. Placement: Place the compressor on a flat, stable, and dry surface with adequate ventilation.
3. Attach Air Filter/Regulator: Screw the air filter and pressure regulator assembly onto the designated port on the compressor. Ensure it is hand-tightened to prevent air leaks.
4. Connect Air Hose: Connect your airbrush hose (not included) to the output port of the pressure regulator. The connection is 1/8 inch (0.3 cm) diameter.
5. Power Connection: Plug the power cord into a standard 230V AC electrical outlet.

Operating Instructions

1. Power On: Flip the power switch to the "ON" position. The compressor will start to fill the air tank.
2. Pressure Regulation: Once the tank is filled (the compressor will automatically stop at approximately 4 bar), adjust the pressure regulator knob to set your desired working pressure. The manometer will display the current output pressure.
3. Begin Airbrushing: Start your airbrushing work. The compressor will automatically restart when the pressure in the tank drops below approximately 3 bar to maintain consistent airflow.
4. Power Off: When finished, turn the power switch to the "OFF" position.
5. Depressurize: After turning off, release any remaining air pressure from the airbrush hose and tank by briefly pressing the airbrush trigger or opening the tank drain valve (if applicable).

Note: The compressor is designed for intermittent use. Avoid continuous operation for extended periods without allowing it to cool down. The auto-stop feature helps manage this.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your compressor.

• Drain Moisture: Periodically drain any accumulated moisture from the air filter's water trap. Unscrew the bottom of the water trap to release the water.
• Clean Air Filter: Inspect the air filter element regularly. Clean or replace it if it appears dirty or clogged to ensure proper airflow.
• Clean Exterior: Wipe down the exterior of the compressor with a damp cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
• Oil-Free Design: This compressor is oil-free and requires no lubrication. Do not attempt to add oil.
• Storage: When not in use for extended periods, store the compressor in a dry, dust-free environment.
