5. Istruzzjonijiet Operattivi
Operating your STEALTH SAUQ-1105 Air Compressor is straightforward:
- Qawwa Mixgħul: Turn on the compressor using the power switch. The motor will start and begin to fill the tank. The tank gauge will show the increasinpressjoni g.
- Issettja Pressjoni: Once the tank is full (up to 125 PSI), use the air pressure regulator knob to set the desired working pressure for your tool. Observe the tool gauge to ensure the correct pressure is set.
- Ibda x-Xogħol: You can now operate your air tool. The compressor will automatically cycle on and off to maintain the set pressure in the tank as you use air.
- Applikazzjonijiet: This compressor is suitable for various tasks including:
- Tħaffir: Powering air drills for various materials.
- Nailing/Brad Nailing: Ideal for finishing nailers and brad nailers for trim work and small projects.
- Tħin: For light grinding tasks with appropriate air grinders.
- Inflazzjoni: Inflating tires, sports equipment, and other inflatables.
- Itfi: When finished, turn off the compressor and disconnect the air hose and tools.
