7.3 Adjusting the pressure
 The pressure in the receiver can be checked on the gauge provided (3)
 The compressor is fitted with a pressure adjustment knob (6). With this knob the air
pressure can be regulated so as to optimize use of pneumatic tools.
 The value set can be checked on the gauge (8)
 The set pressure can be taken from the quick lock coupling (4).
 Please check that the air consumption and the maximum working pressure of the
pneumatic tool to be used are compatible with the pressure set on the pressure regulator
and with the amount of air supplied by the compressor.
As soon as the tank pressure is built up, the motor switches off
automatically.
The motor switches automatically on as soon as the tank pressure
becomes too low.
7.4 Safety valve (fig.2)
The safety valve (2) has been set for the highest permitted pressure of the pressure vessel. It
is prohibited to adjust the safety valve or remove its seal
Actuate the safety valve from time to time to ensure that it works when required. Therefore you

receiver, reducing its capacity and impairing safety.
As it is a contaminating product, condensate must be DISPOSED of in
accordance with laws on protection of the environment and current
legislation
