5. Operating Instructions
Once setup is complete, follow these steps to operate your compressor:
- Pre-Operation Check: Verify all connections are tight, the water cooling system is active, and oil levels are correct.
- Power On: Connect the power cord and turn on the compressor.
- Monitor Pressure and Temperature: Continuously monitor the pressure gauge and temperature gauge during operation. The compressor is designed for stable performance with two-stage compression.
- Manual Shutdown: The compressor features a manual stop function. Turn off the machine when the required pressure is reached in your tank.
- Filling Times: Approximate filling times are as follows:
- 0.5L tank from 0 to 4500psi: approximately 3 minutes
- 6.8L tank from 0 to 4500psi: approximately 45 minutes

6. Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your compressor:
- Oil Check and Change: Check the oil level before each use. Change the oil periodically according to usage or manufacturer recommendations.
- Water Cooling System: Ensure the cooling water is clean and sufficient. Replace water as needed.
- Filter Maintenance: Inspect and replace the blue oil-water filter regularly to maintain air quality and compressor efficiency.
- General Cleaning: Keep the compressor clean and free from dust and debris.
7. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Compressor does not start | No power, loose connection, motor overload | Check power supply, secure connections, reset overload protection |
| Low pressure output | Air leak, clogged filter, worn piston rings | Check for leaks, replace filter, contact service for repair |
| Overheating | Insufficient cooling water, blocked fan, low oil | Ensure adequate cooling water flow, clean fan, check/refill oil |
| Excessive noise | Loose components, worn bearings | Tighten loose parts, contact service for inspection |
