19/12/2014
Congratulations on the purchase of a PILOT air compressor. This unit has been designed to provide reliable and trouble fee usage in servicing your compressed air requirements.
Please take a moment to familiarise yourself with the information contained in the following sections of this guide before attempting to operate this unit.
LOCATION OF UNIT:
For optimum efficiency locate unit in a clean, dry and cool environment with good ventilation. Avoid placing obstacles either on or around unit to facilitate maximum air flow and cooling.
OPERATION:
NOTE:
CHECK OIL LEVEL BEFORE USE IN CASE OF LOSSES
INCURRED DURING SHIPPING
A) ELECTRIC UNITS
Ensure ON/OFF switch is located on the pressure switch is in an ON/OFF position (down), before inserting power plug into appropriate receptacle and applying power.
Unit can then be switched on using the ON/OFF switch. The pressure switch will automatically start and stop the compressor when the air receiver drops below or reaches factory set cut-in and cut-out pressures respectively.
NOTE:
ALWAYS SWITCH UNIT ON AND OFF VIA
PRESSURE SWITCH TO ENSURE THE UNIT
DOES NOT START AGAINST HIGH PRESSURE
IMPORTANT:
TO PREVENT DAMAGE TO UNIT OR PERSONS DO NOT
ATTEMPT TO MODIFY, BYPASS OR REMOVE PRESSURE
SWITCH OR SAFETY VALVE IN ANY WAY.
“TM” OR “K” SERIES ARE DESIGNED TO OPERATE TO
A MAXIMUM PRESSURE OF 10 BAR.

switch cut-out failure. To prevent damage to the unit, do not attempt to modify, bypass or remove the pressure switch or safety valve in anyway.
The motor features a manual overload protection (where fitted). In poor power conditions or motor over temperature conditions, this overload protector will cut power to the motor. To reset, wait for the motor to cool then press reset button. If problems persist, check for power ratings, faulty power or poor connections.
B) PETROL/DIESEL DRIVEN
Please refer to OEM documentation in reference to care and operation of your petrol/diesel engine.
This unit has been designed to “idle down” to minimum operating speeds when factory set cut­out pressures are reached. This saves both fuel consumption and wear on moving parts. When pressure drops to set cut-in pressures the unit will automatically resume pumping at normal operating speeds.
To facilitate easy starting of the unit and to ensure no damage to the electric starter (where fitted) always open the “EASY START” valve until the unit is operating and then close for normal operation. This valve is located on the motor/pump platform (models K25P,K30P) or in the discharge pipe from the pump to the air receiver (other models).
SAFETY
• Pressure vessels (air receivers) are a type of plant, and as such, MAY be required to be
registered with the relevant statutory authority in your state. Regulations regarding plant registration vary from state to state. Check with your relevant government authority about plant registration.
• Compressed air can be dangerous. Never point compressed air tools or equipment towards
another person.
• After use, drain all residual air pressure or engage outlet tap to prevent accidental
discharge by children.
• Keep clear of compressor pump during and after operation. Heat build up in the pump may
cause burns to unwary.
• Never operate the unit without factory fitted belt guard.(belt drive models) or pump shroud
(direct drive models).
• Never operate the unit with damaged or exposed electrical wiring.
• Do not alter, adjust or remove any components on the unit without technical support.
• Whenever transporting an air compressor, ensure all air is drained from the air receiver.
There should be NO residual air pressure in the air receiver.

• Check that fuses or circuit breakers correspond to motor rating. In case of 415-Volt units, check
rotation as indicated by arrow attached to unit. On 240-Volt units, avoid using extension leads as they could cause voltage drop and power loss to motor. If extension is to be used, please follow the table below.
TABLE 1.
KW HP VOLTS RECOMMENDED WIRE SIZE
1.65 2.25 240 HEAVY DUTY, 1.5MM SQUARE WIRE (MAX LENGTH 20 M)
2.20 3.00 240 HEAVY DUTY, 1.5MM SQUARE WIRE (MAX LENGTH 10 M)
• Oil level must be obtained at centre of oil sight glass. Do not overfill as this could cause excessive
oil out going from the crank case breather.
• Oil is to be replaced every 1000 working hours or on a six (6) monthly basis.
RECOMMENDED OIL:
• PILOT PCO-40G or equivalent (Stationary models).
• PILOT PCO-30G or equivalent (Portable models).
Note: In humid and/or very low duty cycle environments, condensate may collect in the sump. Under these conditions, it is a requirement that the operator drain the residual water from the sump on a regular basis and/or change the oil more frequently than recommended above.
• Air filter element should be cleaned periodically and replaced every 500 working hours. (Under
normal environmental conditions).
• Routine maintenance should be performed on at least a six (6) monthly basis.
• Condensation must be drained from air receiver at least weekly.
• Unit must be kept clean to allow proper cooling to take effect. Special care should be taken to
clean the crankcase breather in order to allow proper crankcase breathing.
• Whenever attempting to carry out any maintenance to compressors, isolate power and release all
pressure from receiver.
• For information regarding spare parts and/or service, please always quote model and serial
number.
• PLEASE KEEP THIS INFORMATION NEAR MACHINE, SO IT CAN BE READ BY
ANYONE ATTEMPTING PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE.

DO NOT BOLT COMPRESSOR DIRECTLY ONTO FLOOR. THIS MAY
CAUSE CRACKS IN THE AIR RECEIVER. PLACE COMPRESSOR ON
THE RUBBER VIBRATION PADS PROVIDED. IF THE COMPRESSOR
MUST BE BOLTED, ENSURE RUBBER VIBRATION PADS ARE IN PLACE
AND FASTEN, LEAVING A GAP BETWEEN BOLT HEAD OR NUT AND
COMPRESSOR FOOT TO AVOID ANY METAL TO METAL CONTACT.
COMPRESSOR COMPONENT DESCRIPTIONS
• PRESSURE SWITCH: This switch is located on the top of the air receiver and functions as a
manual on/off switch in addition to automatically stopping and starting the compressor at factory pre-set pressures (electric models only).
• PRESSURE GAUGE: The Pressure Gauge is located on the air receiver and indicates the
pressure held in both PSI and KPA.
• SAFETY VALVE: The Safety Valve is located on the air receiver and is designed to release
pressure in the event of a pressure switch failure.
• OVERLOAD PROTECTION: Electric models are fitted with an overload protector, to protect
the motor in the event of an over temperature condition. These reset buttons are located either on the pressure switch or the motor itself.
• CHECK VALVE: The Check Valve is located at the junction of the pump discharge pipe and the
air receiver. The check valve prevents air pressure form returning from the air receiver to the pump.
• EASY START VALVE: (Petrol/Diesel models only) The Easy Start Valve is located on the check
valve for portable units and on the compressor platform for stationary units. This valve should be opened for ease of starting of the engine and closed when running for normal operation.
• RECEIVER DRAIN: The Receiver Drain is located at the underside of the air receiver and is
used for draining condensate from the receiver.
• OIL SIGHT GLASS: The Oil Sight Glass is located on the side of the compressor pump
(opposite the flywheel) and is used for examining the oil level of the unit.
