1. Informazzjoni Importanti dwar is-Sigurtà

Please read this manual thoroughly before operating the SMACO PCP Air Compressor. Failure to follow these instructions may result in serious injury or property damage. Keep this manual for future reference.

• Restrizzjoni tal-Età: This product is intended for use by individuals over 18 years old.
• Sigurtà Elettrika: Ensure the power source matches the compressor's requirements (12V DC or 110V-220V AC). Always connect to a grounded outlet when using AC power. Do not operate with damaged cords or plugs.
• Ventilazzjoni: Operate the compressor in a well-ventilated area to prevent overheating. Avoid enclosed spaces.
• Limiti tal-Pressjoni: Never exceed the maximum operating pressure of 4500 PSI (30 MPa / 300 Bar). Over-pressurizing tanks can cause explosions.
• Ċiklu tat-tkessiħ: The compressor requires a cool-down period. Do not operate continuously for more than 25 minutes. Allow 10-15 minutes for cooling after each 25-minute cycle.
• Moisture and Oil: This is an oil-free and water-free compressor. Do not add oil or water. Ensure the built-in oil-moisture filter is properly maintained.
• Konnessjonijiet: Ensure all connections are secure before operation. The inflatable interface diameter is 8mm.
• Superviżjoni: Although the unit has an auto-shutoff feature, it is recommended to monitor the inflation process.
• Uċuħ sħan: The compressor and hose can become hot during operation. Avoid direct contact.

• Valv tas-Sigurtà: An explosion-proof disc designed to release pressure if it exceeds safe limits.

3. Gwida ta' Setup

3.1 Spakkjar u Spezzjoni

1. Neħħi bir-reqqa l-komponenti kollha mill-imballaġġ.
2. Inspect the compressor and accessories for any signs of damage during shipping. Contact customer support if any damage is found.
3. Ensure all listed accessories are present.

3.2 Konnessjonijiet Inizjali

Before operating, ensure proper connections for power and inflation.

1. Connect the Inflation Hose: Securely attach the inflation hose to the compressor's output port and to the tank you intend to fill. Ensure a tight seal to prevent leaks.
2. Agħżel Sors tal-Enerġija:
   • For AC Power (110V-220V): Plug the AC power cord into the compressor's AC input and then into a grounded wall outlet. The initial setting is typically for 110V AC.
   • For DC Power (12V Car Battery): Qabbad il-cl aħmaramp mat-terminal pożittiv (+) tal-batterija tal-karozza tiegħek u l-iswed clamp to the negative (-) terminal. Ensure your car engine is running to provide stable power and prevent battery drain.

4. Istruzzjonijiet Operattivi

4.1 Lista ta' Kontroll ta' Qabel l-Operazzjoni

• Kun żgur li l-konnessjonijiet kollha huma siguri.
• Verify the tank's maximum pressure rating.
• Confirm the compressor is in a well-ventilated area.
• Close the bleed valve before starting inflation.

4.2 Proċess ta' Inflazzjoni

1. Agħżel il-Modalità tal-Enerġija: Set the power switch to 'I' for DC (12V) or 'II' for AC (110V-220V).
2. Issettja l-Pressjoni Mira: Rotate the pressure setting knob on the gauge to your desired inflation pressure. The machine will automatically stop when this pressure is reached.
3. Start Compressor: Press the 'START' button. The compressor will begin to operate, and the cooling fans will activate.
4. Immonitorja l-Progress: Observe the real-time pressure on the gauge. Although auto-shutoff is present, it is good practice to monitor the process.
5. Tifi awtomatiku: The compressor will automatically stop filling when the preset pressure is achieved. The cooling fan will continue to run to dissipate heat.
6. Waqfien manwali: To stop the compressor manually at any time, press the 'OFF' button.
7. Pressjoni tar-Rilaxx: After inflation is complete and the compressor has stopped, slowly open the bleed valve to release any residual pressure in the hose before disconnecting.
8. Skonnettja: Once pressure is fully released, disconnect the inflation hose from the tank and the compressor. Then, disconnect the power source.

4.3 Cooling Cycle

The compressor is designed with a duty cycle to prevent overheating. For optimal performance and longevity:

• Do not run the compressor for more than 25 minuta kontinwament.
• Allow the compressor to cool down for 10-15 minuta after each 25-minute operation cycle. The cooling fan will continue to run during this period.
