6.1
Do’s
 The compressor must be used in a suitable environment (well ventilated with an ambient
temperature of between +5°C and +40°C) and never in places with dust, acids, vapors,
explosive or flammable gases.
 Always maintain a safety distance of at least 4 meters between the compressor and the
work area.
 Any coloring of the belt guards of the compressor during painting operations indicates that
the distance is too short.
 Insert the plug of the electrical cable in a socket of suitable shape, voltage and frequency
complying with current regulations.
 Keep the work area free. When operating, the compressor must be placed on a stable
surface.
 The first time you start the compressor check that the direction of rotation is correct and
matches that indicated by the arrow on the conveyor. (Fig 1, the air must be conveyed
towards the head of the compressor)
 Use extension cables with a maximum length of 5 meters and with a cable cross-section.
 The use of extension cables of different length and also of adapters and multiple sockets
should be avoided.
 Always use the switch of the pressure switch to switch off the compressor.
 Always use the handle to move the compressor.
 When operating, the compressor must be placed on a stable, horizontal surface to
guarantee correct lubrication.
6.2 Don’ts
 Never direct the jet of air towards persons, animals or your body. (Always wear safety
goggles to protect your eyes against flying objects that maybe lifted by the jet of air).
 Never direct the jet of liquids sprayed by tools connected to the compressor towards the
compressor.
 Never use the appliance with bare feet or wet hands or feet.
 Never pull the power canle to disconnect the plug from the socket or to move the
compressor.

 The compressor must be used only for air compression. Do not use the compressor for
any other type of gas.
 Never let the compressor come into contact with water or other liquids and never direct the
jet of liquids sprayed by tools connected to the compressor towards the compressor: as
the appliance is live, this could cause electrocution or short-circuits.
 Never yank the power cable to disconnect the plug from the power outlet or to move the
compressor.
 The compressed air produced by the compressor cannot not be used for pharmaceutical,
food or medical purposes except after particular treatments and cannot be used to fill the
