SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Before using your compressor it is in your own interest to read and pay attention
to the following safety rules.
1. Compressed air is dangerous. Do not point a jet of air at persons or animals, and do
not discharge compressed air against the skin.
2. DO NOT operate your compressor with the guard removed.
3. Repairs must only be carried out by a qualified engineer. If problems occur, contact
your Clarke dealer.
4. Before carrying out any maintenance, make sure that the pressure is released from
the air reservoir, and that the compressor is disconnected from the electrical 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 compressor.
7. DO NOT operate in wet or damp conditions. Keep the compressor dry at all times.
Similarly, clean air will allow the compressor to work efficiently. Do not use in dusty or
otherwise dirty locations.
8. Some of the metal parts can become quite hot during operation. Do not to touch
these until the compressor has cooled down.
9. Always set the pressure regulator to the recommended setting for the tool.
10. When spraying flammable materials e.g. cellulose paint, ensure that there is
sufficient airflow and keep clear of any source of ignition.
11. Before spraying any material always consult paint manufacturers instructions for
safety and usage.
12. Protect yourself. Goggles will protect your eyes from flying particles. Face masks will
protect you against paint spray and fumes.
13. Do not apply strain to electrical cables and make sure that air hoses are not kinked
or wrapped around the compressor.
14. When disconnecting air hoses or other equipment from your compressor, make sure
that the air supply is turned off at the outlet and vent all pressurised air from within
the reservoir 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. Make sure that all individuals using the compressor have had the necessary training
and have read and fully understand these operating instructions.
17. Make sure that any equipment or tool used in conjunction with your compressor, has
a safe working pressure exceeding that of the compressor.
18. Be careful when transporting the compressor to prevent tipping over
19. Permanently installed systems must be installed by a competent engineer.
20. These compressors produce noise levels in excess of 70dB(A). Persons working near
the compressor must be supplied with ear protection.

SAFETY SYMBOLS
Read this instruction booklet carefully before positioning,
operating or adjusting the compressor.
Risk of electric shock. The compressor must be
disconnected from the mains supply before removing any
covers. Do not use in a damp environment.
Risk of accidental start-up. The compressor could start
automatically in the event of a power cut and subsequent
reset. Do not mover the compressor while it is connected
to the power source, or when the tank is filled with
compressed air.
This compressor contains surfaces which may reach a high
temperature during operation. Never operate with the
motor housing removed.
Wear safety goggles and ear protectors when using this
compressor.
This compressor produces a high sound level during
operation. Ear protection should be worn.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
WARNING: READ THESE ELECTRICAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
THOROUGHLY BEFORE CONNECTING THE PRODUCT TO THE MAINS
SUPPLY.
The power cable from the main supply must be large enough to carry the
starting and running load of the electric motor. This is particularly relevant if the
compressor is some distance from the source of supply.
Electrical installations should be completed by a qualified electrician.
Electrical connection to the mains supply must be via a suitably fused (see
table below) approved plug or isolator (allowing sufficient capacity for motor
starting). If using a circuit breaker, ensure it is motor rated and of sufficient size
to allow for motor starting.
Compressors should be connected to mains electricity supply via an earth
leakage protection device (RCD).

MAINTENANCE
DRAIN THE RESERVOIR (DAILY)
After use, always open the drain valve to make sure that any condensate is
drained off.
CHECK OIL (DAILY)
Ensure the oil level is between the min and max marks on the dipstick. See
“Check the Oil level” on page 7 and top-up if necessary - (use Clarke SAE 30
compressor oil, available from your local dealer).
CLEAN THE AIR FILTER (MONTHLY)
The air filter must be examined monthly, more often in dusty conditions,
1. Pull the filter cover away from the
compressor
2. Pull out the filter element.
3. Clean the filter using a soft brush.

REPLACING THE OIL
After the first 100 hours use, replace
the oil using Clarke SAE30 compressor
oil. Then replace the oil after every
500 hours of operation or every 6
months.
To empty the oil from the machine,
remove the oil drain plug from the
crankcase cover.
CHECK THE NON-RETURN VALVE (EVERY 6 MONTHS)
If the reservoir pressure decreases for no apparent reason, it is possible that the
non-return valve is leaking. To check,
1. Make sure that the reservoir is not
under pressure and the
compressor is switched OFF.
2. Examine the non-return valve,
and replace the gasket and valve
if nece
ssary.
