6. Operating Instructions

6.1 Powering On/Off

  1. Plug the power cord into a suitable electrical outlet.
  2. Turn the main power switch to the 'ON' position. The compressor will begin to fill the air tank.
  3. The compressor will automatically shut off once the maximum tank pressure (8 bar) is reached. It will restart automatically when the pressure drops below a certain threshold.
  4. To turn off the compressor, switch the main power switch to the 'OFF' position and unplug the unit.

6.2 Adjusting Output Pressure

  1. The pressure reducer knob allows you to set the desired working pressure for your tools.
  2. Turn the knob clockwise to increase the output pressure and counter-clockwise to decrease it.
  3. Monitor the pressure gauge to ensure the correct pressure is set for your application.

6.3 Using the 13-Piece Accessory Set

The included accessory set provides versatility for various tasks:

  • Tire Pressure Gauge: Connect to tire valves for accurate inflation and pressure measurement.
  • Blow Gun: Ideal for cleaning surfaces, blowing away dust, or drying.
  • Nozzles and Adapters: Use these with the blow gun or directly with the hose for inflating various items like sports balls, air mattresses, or small inflatables.
