- Pressjoni tal-Issettjar: Turn the power switch to 'ON'. Once the tank is pressurized, slowly turn the regulator knob clockwise to increase the outlet pressure to the desired PSI for your tool. Monitor the outlet pressure gauge.
- Bl-użu tal-Kumpressur: Operate your air tool as needed. The compressor will cycle on and off automatically to maintain tank pressure.
- Tfigħ: When finished, turn the power switch to 'OFF'. Disconnect the air tool and hose. Open the drain valve to release all air from the tank. This is crucial to prevent rust and extend tank life.
6. Manutenzjoni
Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and longevity of your air compressor.
- Drain Air Tank Daily: Condensation will accumulate in the tank. To prevent rust and tank failure, drain the tank daily after each use by opening the drain valve until all air and moisture are expelled.
- Filtru tal-Ajru Nadif: Periodically check and clean the air filter (if accessible) to ensure proper airflow to the pump. Refer to the filter's specific instructions.
- Spezzjona għal Tnixxijiet: Regularly check all connections and hoses for air leaks. Leaks reduce efficiency and can cause the compressor to run excessively.
