4. OPERATION
2. INTRODUCTION & SPECIFICATIONS
V-Twin pump with aluminium cylinders and cast iron liners for reduced weight and improved resistance to wear. Suitable for general-purpose
workshop applications. Pump directly coupled to heavy-duty induction motor for reliable operation. Precision welded receiver tank
manufactured to meet Pressure Vessel Directive 2009/105/EC. Fitted with fully automatic pressure cut-out switch, air regulator and pressure
gauges for tank and supply. Supplied with handle and wheels for easy manoeuvrability. Fitted with ASTA/BS approved non-rewirable plug.
3. PREPARATION
3.1.
Remove compressor from packaging and inspect for any shortages or damage. If anything is found to be missing or damaged contact
your supplier.
3.2.
Save the packing material for future transportation of the compressor. We recommend that the packing is stored in a safe location, at
least for the period of the guarantee. Then, if necessary, it will be easier to send the compressor to the service centre.
3.3.
Confirm that the mains voltage corresponds with the voltage shown on the compressor data plate.
3.4.
SAC05030.V2- Fit the main wheels (fig.1.A) and two rubber feet (fig.1.B) to the main frame using the nuts, bolts and washers supplied.
SAC10030.V2- Fit the main wheels (fig.1.D) and small wheel (fig.1.E) to the main frame using the nuts, bolts and washers supplied.
3.5.
The compressor should be installed on a flat, firm surface, or one that does not exceed 15° either transversely or longitudinally, and
should be in a position that allows good air circulation around the unit.
3.6.
The compressor is shipped with oil in the pump, but the level needs checking before starting the unit for the first time. Check the oil level by
referring to the oil sight glass (fig.2.B). If the oil level is not up to the red centre mark, it should be topped up. Remove the plastic
transit plug from the oil filler hole and if required, pour in the recommended oil. (See section 5.6). Screw the filler/breather cap
supplied into the aperture as shown (fig.2.A).
DO NOT attempt to move the compressor by pulling the air tool hose. Only move the compressor by the handle.
DO NOT use this product to perform a task for which it is not designed.
DO NOT deface the certification plate attached to the compressor tank.
DO NOT cover the compressor or restrict air flow around the machine whilst operating.
DO NOT operate the compressor without an air filter.
DO NOT allow anyone to operate the compressor unless they have received full instructions.
DANGER! DO NOT direct the output jet of air towards people or animals.
WARNING! The air tank is a pressure vessel and the following safety measures apply:
DO NOT tamper with the safety valve and DO NOT modify or alter the tank in any way and DO NOT strap anything to
the
tank.
DO NOT subject the tank to impact, vibration or to heat and DO NOT allow contact with abrasives or corrosives.
DO drain condensation from tank daily and inspect inside walls for corrosion every three months and have a detailed tank
inspection carried out annually.
The tank shell must not fall below the certified thickness at any point.
WARNING! If an electrical fuse blows, ensure it is replaced with an identical fuse type and rating.
When not in use, store the compressor carefully in a safe, dry, childproof location.
When the compressor is not in use, it should be switched off, disconnected from the mains supply and the air drained from the tank.

4.1. IMPORTANT. The use of extension leads to connect this compressor to the mains is not recommended as the resulting voltage drop
reduces motor, and therefore pump, performance.
4.2. Take care when selecting tools for use with the compressor. Air tool manufacturers normally express the volume of air required to
operate a tool in cubic feet per minute (cfm). This refers to free air delivered by the compressor (‘air out’) which varies according to the
pressure setting. Do not confuse this with the compressor displacement which is the air taken in by the compressor (‘air in’). ‘Air out’ is
always less than ‘air in’ - due to losses within the compressor.
