- Turn on the main power switch. The compressor will start automatically and build pressure.
- Once the desired pressure is reached, the compressor will shut off automatically due to the auto start/stop pressure switch operation.
4.2 Nastavitev tlaka
The operating pressure can be adjusted using the pressure regulator, typically located near the pressure gauge. Turn clockwise to increase pressure and counter-clockwise to decrease pressure. Monitor the pressure gauge during adjustment.
4.3 Zaustavitev
- Izklopite glavno stikalo za vklop.
- Close the air outlet valve.
- Bleed any remaining air pressure from the tank using the manual condensate drain or an air tool connected to the outlet.
5. Vzdrževanje
Redno vzdrževanje je ključnega pomena za dolgo življenjsko dobo in učinkovito delovanje vašega zračnega kompresorja.
5.1 Dnevno vzdrževanje
- Odvod kondenzata: Open the manual condensate drain valve at the bottom of the tank to release accumulated moisture. Close the valve once all water has been expelled.
- Preverite nivo olja: Verify the oil level in the compressor pump.
5.2 Tedensko vzdrževanje
- Preverite zračni filter: Check the air filter for dirt and debris. Clean or replace if necessary.
