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. 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 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 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 set the pressure regulator to the recommended setting for the tool.
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. 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/or fumes.
13. Do not exert any strain on electrical cables and ensure that air hoses are not kinked
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 had the necessary
training and have read and fully understand these operating instructions.
17. Ensure that any equipment or tool used in conjunction with your compressor, has a
safe working pressure exceeding that of the compressor.
18. Exercise caution when transporting the compressor to avoid tipping it over.
19. Permanently installed systems should be installed by a competent engineer.
20. These compressors produce noise levels in excess of 70dB(A). Persons working in the
vicinity of the compressor must be provided with suitable ear protection.

WARNING! Read these electrical safety instructions thoroughly
before connecting the product to the mains supply.
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.
If the plug has to be changed because it is not suitable for your socket, or due to
damage, it should be cut off and a replacement fitted, following the wiring instructions
shown below. The old plug must be disposed of safely, as insertion into a mains socket
could cause an electrical hazard.
WARNING! The wires in the power cable of this product are
coloured in accordance with the following code:
Blue = Neutral Brown = Live Yellow and Green = Earth
If the colours of the wires in the power cable of this product do not correspond with the
markings on the terminals of your plug, proceed as follows.
• The wire which is
coloured Blue must be
connected to the
terminal which is marked
N or coloured Black.
• The wire which is
coloured Brown must be
connected to the
terminal which is marked
L or coloured Red.
• The wire which is
coloured Yellow and
Green must be
connected to the terminal which is marked E or or coloured Green.
We strongly recommend that this machine is connected to the mains supply via a
Residual Current Device (RCD)
If in any doubt, consult a qualified electrician. DO NOT attempt any repairs yourself

RESET BUTTON
This compressor has a thermal
overload device which protects the
motor.
If the motor overheats the thermal
overload device cuts the power, thus
preventing damage to the motor.
If the thermal overload device
activates, wait 5 minutes for the motor
to cool and press the reset button.
If you restart the compressor and the
overload cutout activates again,
• Switch off the compressor.
• Disconnect the compressor from the mains supply.
