SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: AS WITH ALL MACHINERY, THERE ARE CERTAIN HAZARDS
INVOLVED WITH THEIR OPERATION AND USE. EXERCISING RESPECT AND
CAUTION WILL CONSIDERABLY LESSEN THE RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY.
HOWEVER, IF NORMAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS ARE OVERLOOKED, OR
IGNORED, PERSONAL INJURY TO THE OPERATOR MAY RESULT.
1.
Compressed air is dangerous, NEVER direct a jet of air at people or animals, and
NEVER discharge compressed air against the skin.
2.
DO NOT operate your compressor with any guards removed.
3.
Electrical or mechanical repairs should only be carried out by a qualified engineer. If problems occur, contact your Clarke dealer.
4.
Before carrying out any maintenance, ensure the pressure is expelled from the air receiver, and the machine is disconnected from the mains supply.
5.
DO NOT leave pressure in the receiver overnight, or when transporting.
6.
DO NOT adjust, or tamper with the safety valves. The maximum pressure is factory set, and clearly marked on the machine.
7.
DO NOT operate in wet or damp conditions. Keep the machine dry at all times.
Similarly, a clean atmosphere will ensure efficient operation. Do not use in dusty or otherwise dirty locations.
8.
Some of the metal parts can become quite hot during operation. Take care not to touch these until the machine has cooled down.
9.
Always adjust the pressure regulator to the recommended setting for the particular spray gun or tool being used.
10. When spraying flammable materials e.g. cellulose paint, ensure that there is adequate ventilation and keep clear of any possible source of ignition.
11. Protect yourself. Think carefully about any potential hazards which may be created by using the air compressor and use the appropriate protection. e.g. Goggles will protect your eyes from flying particles. Face masks will protect you against paint spray and/or fumes.
12. Before spraying any material always consult paint manufacturers instructions for safety and usage.
13. Do not exert any strain on electrical cables and ensure that air hoses are not angled or wrapped around machinery etc.
14. When disconnecting air hoses or other equipment from your compressor ensure that the air supply is turned off at the machine outlet and vent all pressurised air from within the machine and other equipment attached to it.
15. Make sure that children and animals are kept well away from the compressor and any equipment attached to it.
16. Always ensure that all individuals using the compressor have read and fully understand these Operating Instructions.
17. Ensure that any equipment or tool used in conjunction with your compressor, has a safety working pressure exceeding that of the machine.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
Connect the mains lead to a standard, 230 Volt (50Hz) electrical supply through an approved 13 amp BS 1363 plug, or a suitably fused isolator switch.
WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED
IMPORTANT: The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:
Green & Yellow -
Blue -
Brown -
Earth
Neutral
Live
• Connect GREEN & YELLOW cord to terminal marked with a letter “E” or
Earth symbol “ ” or coloured GREEN or GREEN & YELLOW.
• Connect BROWN cord to terminal marked with a letter “L” or coloured
RED.
• Connect BLUE cord to terminal marked with a letter “N” or coloured
BLACK.
If this appliance is fitted with a plug which is moulded onto the electric cable
(i.e. non-rewireable) please note:
1. The plug must be thrown away if it is cut from the electric cable. There is a danger of electric shock if it is subsequently inserted into a socket outlet.
2. Never use the plug without the fuse cover fitted.
3. When replacing a detachable fuse carrier, ensure the correct replacement is used (as indicated by marking or colour code).
4. Replacement fuse covers can be obtained from your local dealer or most electrical stockists.
FUSE RATING
The fuse in the plug must be replaced with one of the same rating (13 amps) and this replacement must be ASTA approved to BS1362.
If in any doubt, consult a qualified electrician. DO NOT attempt any repairs yourself.

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.
FITTING THE INLET FILTER
1. Remove the cap from the top of the air inlet tube.
2. Push the air inlet filter supplied securely on to the tube.
5
ADDING OIL
The compressor is supplied without any oil inside.
3. Remove the oil cap from the top of the oil filler tube.
4. Pour the oil into the oil filler tube using the funnel on the bottle, then replace the oil cap.
• Only use Clarke synthetic compressor oil, available from your Clarke dealer (Part No.
3050795).
5. Make sure that the oil level is half way up the oil sight glass
6
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 on the ring shown, air should hiss out when 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.

3. Tilt the compressor carefully on to its side, so that the oil is drained into a suitable container.
• Dispose of the oil according to local regulations.
4. Reassemble the head ensuring the sealing ring is in perfect condition and is located correctly.
11
CHECK THE NON RETURN VALVE
If the tank pressure decreases for no apparent reason, it is possible that the non-return valve is leaking. To check, ensure the tank is under pressure and the machine switched OFF,
1. Take off the flexible hose and check if air leaks out from the valve.
2. If so, unscrew the valve from the connection and disassemble it as shown.
3. Clean all the components with a dry cloth and reassemble the valve taking care to place the internal rubber disc(2) as shown.
4. Fasten the valve to the connection and join the flexible hose. If the leakage persists, the whole valve must be replaced.
REPLACING THE AIR OUTLET FILTER
NOTE: The compressor must be completely depressurised before carrying out this procedure.
1.
Unscrew the cartridge from the air filter assembly.
2. Uncrew and replace the small air filter.
