Operation

Applicable  Model:2-900F8

1.safety  valve (Pic. E):

Safety valve ① is mainly used to keep the air pressure stable. When the air pressure exceeds 10 bar (15 bar for high-pressure models), it will automatically release the pressure to protect   the safety of users. Caveat! The safety valve cannot be used to deflate. Frequent pulling out   of the safety valve can easily damage the safety valve.

2. Pressure gauge (Pic. E):

The air compressor is automatically controlled by a pressure switch during normal operation. When the pressure reaches the maximum value, it will automatically stop, and when the pressure drops to the starting pressure, it will automatically start. The working pressure of the air pressure switch has been adjusted before leaving the factory and cannot be changed at will during use. The pressure is displayed by the pressure gauge ②.

3. Power connection:

Plug in the plug and turn on the power (power must be grounded). Note: The air compressor should not be placed too far away from the power source (within 10 meters), so as not to reduce the voltage of the motor.

4. Pressure  switch  (Pic. F)

Vertical switch:Pull up the switch button to turn on, and press the button to turn off. Horizontal switch: Turn the switch to AUTO to turn it on; turn the switch to OFF to shut down.

5. Air outlet (Pic. E)

  1. The ball valve ③ can be used directly.
  2. before using the quick connector ④make sure there is no pressure in the air tank.

6. Movement

Before moving the compressor, make sure that the switch is off and the power cord plug is unplugged from the socket. Grasp the handle, lift the air compressor, move the air compressor to the desired position, lower the handle, and ensure that the air compressor is on a flat ground. Note:Make sure your feet stand firm and seek help if necessary.

7. Overload protection (Pic. G)

This product is equipped with an overload protection device. When the working voltage is too low or too high, or the working environment is with high ambient temperature, the motor is overheated, the machine will automatically cut off the power supply to protect the motor. After that, the user needs to turn off the power switch first, wait for 3–10 minutes, and then press the red reset button (depending on the cooling condition). Then turn it on, the machine can be used normally. If the button is reset, it still does not work normally. Wait for 30 minutes or more, and then start the motor after it has cooled down completely.

7. Control box (pic. G)

(1). Each motor has an independent control switch. When it is started normally, motors will start in sequence with a delay of 4 seconds. The user can also set the number of working  motors according to actual work requirements.

(2). Phase sequence correction, if the electric control box displays “999” after the power is turned on, but it does not work normally:it is because the power input line is connected

incorrectly, and the motor is in phase sequence protection state to avoid motor reversal, and the wiring sequence needs to be re-adjusted for normal use.

(3) Over-voltage and under-voltage protection

The air compressor will automatically cut off the power to protect the motor due to the high or low input voltage. The user needs to make sure that the voltage is normal and then restart the machine. Warning! Please use the air compressor in a suitable environment!
