2. Sigurnosne upute

Please read and understand all safety instructions before operating the compressor. Failure to follow these instructions may result in electric shock, fire, or serious injury.

• Električna sigurnost: Ensure the compressor is connected to a grounded power outlet with the correct voltage (220-240 V / 50 Hz). Do not operate the compressor with a damaged power cord or plug. Keep the power cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges, or moving parts.
• Sigurnost tlaka: Never exceed the maximum operating pressure of 6 bars (87 PSI). Do not tamper with the safety/purge valve. Always release air pressure from the tank before performing maintenance or disconnecting accessories.
• Ventilacija: Operate the compressor in a well-ventilated area. Ensure adequate airflow around the unit to prevent overheating. Do not cover the compressor during operation.
• Osobna zaštitna oprema: Wear appropriate eye and respiratory protection when airbrushing.
• Djeca i prolaznici: Keep children and bystanders away from the operating compressor and airbrushing area.
• Namjena: Use the compressor only for its intended purpose as an air source for airbrushing and similar applications. Do not use it for breathing air supply.
• Održavanje: Uvijek isključite napajanje prije bilo kakvog održavanja ili čišćenja.
• Zaštita od pregrijavanja: The compressor is equipped with automatic overheat protection. If the unit shuts down due to overheating, allow it to cool down completely before restarting.

• Spremnik zraka: 3.5-liter capacity, ensures consistent air pressure and reduces compressor cycling.
• Regulator pritiska: Allows adjustment of output air pressure.
• Filter: Integrated into the pressure regulator to remove moisture and particles from the air.
• Manometar: Displays the current output air pressure.
• Safety/Purge Valve: Located on the air tank for safety and draining condensation.
• Prekidač za napajanje: Controls the compressor's power.
• Izlaz zraka: G 1/8" connection for air hose.

5. Postavljanje

1. Plasman: Place the compressor on a stable, level surface in a well-ventilated area. Ensure there is sufficient space around the unit for airflow.
2. Attach Pressure Regulator: Screw the pressure regulator assembly onto the air outlet port of the compressor. Hand-tighten firmly.
3. Spojite crijevo za zrak: Connect your airbrush hose (not included, typically 1/8" fitting) to the output of the pressure regulator. Ensure a secure connection to prevent air leaks.
4. Priključak za napajanje: Plug the power cable into the compressor's power inlet, then into a suitable grounded 220-240V / 50Hz electrical outlet.

6. Upute za rad

1. Uključivanje: Flip the power switch to the "ON" position. The compressor will start to fill the air tank. The manometer will show the increasing-tlak.
2. Automatski rad: The compressor features automatic start/stop functionality. It will automatically stop when the tank pressure reaches approximately 4 BAR (57 PSI) and restart when the pressure drops to approximately 3 BAR (43 PSI).
3. Podešavanje izlaznog tlaka:
   • Turn the knob on the pressure regulator to adjust the desired working pressure for your airbrush.
   • The manometer will display the regulated output pressure.
   • Once the desired pressure is set, you can lock the knob (if applicable) to prevent accidental changes.
4. Continuous Mode (Optional): This compressor may offer a second mode where it operates continuously and stops at a higher pressure (e.g., 6 BAR). Consult your specific unit's markings or included manual for details on activating this mode, if available. This mode is generally for applications requiring higher, sustained pressure, not typical airbrushing.
5. Isključivanje: After use, turn off the power switch. Disconnect the airbrush and release any remaining pressure from the air tank by briefly opening the safety/purge valve or by using the airbrush until the pressure gauge reads zero.

7. Održavanje

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your compressor. Always disconnect the power before performing maintenance.

• Kondenzacija odvoda: The air tank accumulates condensation. Regularly drain the water from the air tank using the safety/purge valve at the bottom of the tank. This prevents rust and ensures clean, dry air.
• Čisti filtar zraka: The pressure regulator includes an air filter. Periodically check and clean this filter to ensure proper airflow and prevent contaminants from reaching your airbrush. If the compressor has internal cylinder filters, these should also be checked and cleaned as per the manufacturer's instructions (e.g., by unscrewing and cleaning the metallic mesh filters).
• Generalno čišćenje: Keep the exterior of the compressor clean and free of dust. Ensure ventilation openings are unobstructed.
• Dizajn bez ulja: This compressor is oil-free and does not require lubrication. Do not attempt to add oil to any part of the compressor.
