PREPARING FOR USE

Before connecting your compressor to the mains supply, check the following:-

• Firstly, ensure the compressor is on level ground. Do not allow it to run if

it is standing on an incline.

• Check also that the mains voltage corresponds with that shown on

the data label on the side of the compressor.

• The ON/OFF switch is in the OFF

position.

• Remove any transit caps from

the air inlets and replace them

with the air inlet filters supplied.

ADDING OIL

The compressor is supplied without

any oil inside.

1. Make sure that the oil level is half

way up the oil sight glass.

2. If not, remove the oil cap and top

up the reservoir.

• Only use Clarke synthetic

compressor oil, available from

your Clarke dealer (Part No.

3050795).

FITTING THE REGULATOR

1. Fit the regulator into position as

shown.

• Do not overtighten the nut.

SWITCHING THE AIR COMPRESSOR ON

1. To start the compressor, turn the

ON/OFF switch to the ‘I’ (ON)

position - the motor should start

immediately.

NOTE: If the motor fails to start

immediately, the air receiver

may already be full of air.

Check the tank pressure

gauge (shown on the right).

If you release air, by opening

the air outlet tap, the motor

will start automatically once

the cut-in pressure is

reached.

2. Allow the compressor to run for 10

- 15 seconds, with the air outlet

tap, (A) open.

• This will distribute the lubricating

oil.

3. Close the outlet tap and connect

a suitable air hose to the filter/

regulator outlet (B). Connect the

other end to the equipment to be

used.

4. Check the safety valve by pulling

the end cap shown.

• Pliers will be needed to grip the

end cap and pull against the

spring. Air should hiss out when the

valve is pulled.

5. Adjust the pressure regulator.

• To do this, lift the pressure regulator knob (C), and turn it clockwise to

increase the pressure, anticlockwise to decrease the pressure. The

pressure is shown on the outlet gauge (D).

• To lock the pressure regulator knob, push the pressure regulator knob

down until it clicks into place.

IMPORTANT: Always refer to the accessory manufacturers

recommendations for optimum operating pressures for their equipment.

6. With operating pressure set, open the air outlet tap.

NOTE: If the machine pumps continuously without cutting out then the

compressor is too small for the application/tool being used, and

damage may result. Consult your Clarke dealer.

NOTE: DO NOT exceed the duty cycle for the machine (see

Specifications).

SHUTTING DOWN THE COMPRESSOR

1. To shut off the compressor, simply turn the ON/OFF switch to the O (OFF)

position.

2. Close the air outlet tap and trigger the equipment (spray gun, air tool etc.)

to release air from the air hose before disconnecting the hose from the

machine.

3. Before transporting your

compressor or when leaving

overnight, expel all air from the

receiver by opening the vent

valve.

DRAINING THE RESERVOIR

1. Pressurise the reservoir slightly and

then turn the compressor off.

2. Attach the small hose supplied to

the vent valve as shown.

3. Take the compressor to the sink

and place the free end of the

small hose in the sink.

4. Slowly open the vent valve.

5. When the reservoir has been

drained, re-tighten the vent valve and remove the hose.
