20. OPERATE THE COMPRESSOR AT THE RATED VOLTAGE
Operate the compressor at the voltage specified on the electric data plate. You could damage or burn-out the
motor and other electric components if the compressor is operated at a higher or lower voltage than its rated
voltage.
21. NEVER USE THE COMPRESSOR IF IT IS FAULTY
If the compressor is noisy or vibrates excessively when running or it seems to be faulty, stop it immediately and

Use the “O/I” (ON/OFF) buttons of the control panel to stop the compressor.
29. PNEUMATIC CIRCUIT
Use recommended pneumatic hoses and tools that can withstand the same or a higher pressure than the
maximum running pressure of the compressor.
30. SPARE PARTS
Use only original and identical spare parts to replace worn or damaged ones.
