5. Setup

Before initial use, carefully follow these setup steps:

1. Add Lubricating Oil: The compressor is shipped without oil for safety. Before each use, check the oil level. The oil should exceed the red dot on the dipstick, but not by too much. Use appropriate compressor oil.
2. Replace Breathing Plug: Locate the oil cover used for transport and replace it with the striped breathing plug provided. This is crucial for proper ventilation during operation.
3. Install Water Pump for Cooling: Connect the water pump to the compressor's cooling system. Place the water pump into a container of water. Colder water is recommended for optimal cooling performance. Ensure the water pump is circulating water normally before starting the compressor.
4. Connect Inflation Hose: Securely connect the high-pressure inflation hose to the compressor's output port and to the item you intend to inflate (e.g., air tank, PCP rifle).
5. Loosen Bleed Screws: Before starting, loosen the bleed screws on both sides of the compressor. The machine must start under zero pressure. If the bleed screws are not loosened, the machine will not start.

6. Operation

Once setup is complete, follow these steps to operate the compressor:

1. Power On: Connect the power cord to a suitable 220V / 50Hz outlet.
2. Set Desired Pressure: Press the "SET" button on the control panel to adjust the desired target pressure. The compressor will automatically stop when this pressure is reached.
3. Start Compressor: Press the "ON" button to start the machine.
4. Monitor Operation: Continuously monitor the compressor during operation. Ensure the water pump is functioning and cooling is adequate. The compressor will automatically stop once the set pressure is achieved.
5. After Inflation: After the compressor stops, loosen the deflation screw to release any residual pressure in the hose before disconnecting the inflation joint.
6. Tighten Bleed Screws: After operation, tighten the bleed screws on both sides.

7. Maintenance

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

• Oil Level Check: Check the oil level before each use. Replenish or change oil as needed.
• Cooling System: Ensure the water pump and cooling system are clean and free of obstructions. Replace cooling water regularly.
• Air Filters: Inspect and clean or replace air filters periodically to maintain air quality and compressor efficiency.
• Hose and Connections: Regularly inspect all hoses, fittings, and connections for wear, damage, or leaks. Replace any damaged components immediately.
• Storage: Store the compressor in a clean, dry environment when not in use.

8. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your compressor, refer to the following common problems and solutions:

• Compressor does not start:
  • Check power connection and ensure the outlet is functional.
  • Verify that the bleed screws are loosened before starting.
  • Ensure the ON button has been pressed.
• Compressor runs but does not build pressure:
  • Check for leaks in the inflation hose or connections.
  • Ensure the bleed screws are tightened after starting.
  • Verify the target pressure is set correctly.
• Compressor overheats:
  • Ensure the water cooling pump is operating and circulating water effectively.
  • Check that the cooling fan on the compressor is unobstructed and running.
  • Operate in a well-ventilated area.
• Unusual noise or vibration:
  • Turn off the compressor immediately.
  • Inspect for loose parts or foreign objects.
  • Check oil level and quality.

If the problem persists after attempting these solutions, please contact customer support.
