 Use extension cables with a maximum length of 5 meters and with a cable cross-section
of not less than 1.5 mm2. Use of extension cables of different length and cross-section
and also of adapters and multiple sockets should be avoided.
 Always use the handle to move the compressor.
 When using compressed air, you must know and comply with the safety precautions to be
adopted for each type of application (inflation, airpowered tools, painting, washing with
water-based detergents only, clinching, etc.).
 To avoid overheating of the electric motor, this compressor is designed for intermittent
duty operation as indicated on the technical dataplate (for example, S3-15 means 1.5
minutes On, 8.5 minutes OFF). In case of overheating, the thermal cutout of the motor is
released, automatically cutting off the power when the temperature is too high due to
excess current take-off. The motor restarts automatically when normal temperature
conditions are restored.
