OPERATING AND SERVICING INSTRUCTIONS

Thank you for choosing Com-Pak. This operating and service guide will provide you

with instructions on how best to use your compressor.

Your Com-Pak compressor has been manufactured to meet Australian Safety Standards. To obtain the

best results and operate the compressor safely, it is important that you read the safety instructions

below.

POWER-CORD CAUTION

Handle the power cord by the plug only. Do not pull out the plug by tugging the cord and never touch

the power cord when your hands are wet. The power cord should be routed such that they are not

likely to be stepped on or run over. A damaged cord can cause a fire or give you an electrical shock.

Check the power point, that your unit is to be operated from, is correctly earthed and in good working

order. CAUTION- Long extension leads result in voltage drop, which can cause motor burnout or

damage.

AUTOMATICLLY STARTING (240 VOLTS AND 415 VOLTS MODELS)

Your Com-Pak compressor can starts automatically when air is being used or the pressure drops to the

cut in pre-set power setting. CAUTION- Do not remove the belt guard or work on the compressor

(e.g. Check belt tension, filling oil, adjust pressure setting or moving unit.) without first disconnecting

the power cord.

CAUTION- Do not operate the compressor with out the belt guard fitted.

SAFTEY VALVE

The safety valve is manufactured and Pre-set set to meet Australian

Standards.

CAUTION- Do not pull the ring on top of the valve to drain tank of air

doing so can damage the valve and cause the safety valve to malfunction

and leak continuously.

INSTALLATION

LOCATE YOUR UNIT

1.) In the cleanest possible place.

2.) In a well ventilated and dry area.

3.) In an accessible place for serving.

4.) On level ground with the belt guard to the rear.

5.) Unit must vibrate, loose mount or similar mounts if fixing in position.

Damage caused by incorrect installation is not covered by warranty.

OPERATING AND SERVICING INSTRUCTION

COMPRESSOR PUMP

To ensure the unit has the correct amount of oil, visually check the oil level in the

sight glass located on the bottom left hand side of the compressor pump. (The

correct level of oil is marked on the sight glass.)

CAUTION- Check the oil level DAILY and top up if necessary.

CAUTION- Only use compressor oil. (RPM 100, ISO 100, SP 100,)

ELECTRIC MOTOR OVERLOAD (240 VOLTS MODLES ONLY)

Due to low voltage or overload the reset button on your electric motor my

automatically stop power flowing to your motor. The reset will have to be pushed

prior to the unit restarting. If the overload continues to disconnect, your compressor

may need servicing by Com-Pak.

The overload is located on to of the electric motor capacitor box. (The red button)

PRESSURE SWITCH (240 VOLTS AND 415 VOLTS MODELS)

Unless otherwise requested, the pressure control switch is pre-set.

Unloading pressure (Cut in) 90 PSI

Loading pressure (Cut out) 120 PSI

The working pressure can be re-set or changed, contact Com-Pak regarding

adjustment. Maximum cut out pressure is 150 PSI

(Automatic overload is located in the 415 Volts pressure switch)

CAUTION- Only turn off the compressor wile the unit is running at the pressure

switch. The Switch has an automatic head unloader system that lets your motor

restart without load.

DRAINING AIR RECEIVER

Loosen the drain tap located under the receiver to remove moisture.

Drain air tank every eight hours or four hours depending on the workload and

moisture content of the atmosphere.

CAUTION- Failure to do so will course corrosion in the air receiver and excessive

moisture in air tools.


APPLY BELT TENSION

The v-belt should be adjusted that a declination of 10-15mm will be obtained when a finger applies

pressure to the middle point of the v-belt.

CAUTION- A loose v-belt will course slipping and result in the compressor pump slowing down

under load. Excessive tension on v-belts can be even more detrimental than too little tension, affecting

not only the belts, but also over loading the motor, bearing and shafts.

DAILY REQUIREMENTS

1.) Drain air receiver.

2.) Check oil level on the pumps sight glass.

3.) Check oil lever on motor dip stick

4.) Check power lead and plug top are in good working order.

5.) Inspect pumps and motor air intake filter are free of dirt and foreign material.

6.) Check all safety equipment are in place and are in good working

Order. (e.g. Belt guard, switch cover, motor capacitor cover box and

Safety valve.)

CAUTION- Before doing any maintenance make sure the controlling pressure switch is

in the OFF position and the power cord is disconnected from the power supply.

PETROL AND DIESEL MODELS- Ensure that your engine (sump) is filled with good motor oil.

Only use the correct grade as specified by the manufacturer instruction book that is enclosed with

your compressor.


SERVICING

AFTER FIRST 100 HOURS OF OPERATION

1.) Drain air receiver.

2.) Change oil.

3.) Check power lead and plug top are in good working order.

4.) Inspect and clean air intake filters and replace if necessary.

5.) Check v-belt for wear and stretch (do not over tighten.)

6.) Check all safety equipment are in place and are in good working

Order. (e.g. Belt guard, switch cover, motor capacitor cover box and

Safety valve.)

PETROL AND DIESEL MODELS- Ensure that your engine (sump) is filled with good motor oil.

Only use the correct grade as specified by the manufacturer instruction book that is enclosed with

your compressor.

The above servicing procedure should be carried out every 1000 HOURS of operation, (or every six

months) replacing air filters and v-belt when necessary.

NOTE- If the unit is working hard or in a dirty surrounding’s (e.g. Woodworking shop, panal beating

shop,) where the air is full of foreign material such as dust. The servicing procedure should be carried

OPERATING AND SERVING INSTRUCTIONS

FIXED MOUNTING

Depending on where the compressor is mounted will determine the best type of mount. Com-Pak will

supply some rubber pads, but if not suitable the owner will need to purchase mounts or make better

pads. It is not suitable to use pads supplied and then render pads useless by bolting down too tightly-

i.e. Nuts must be loose so as mount can vibrate. Failure to do so will cause damage to your compressor

such as air receiver cracking, pulley and belt failure. This will not be covered by the compressor

WARRANTY.

Or if your stationary air compressor is not being bolted down, Com-Pak will supply the flowing rubber

feet.

AIR HOSE AND FITTINGS

Use good quality hose and fittings as supplied by Com-Pak. Small leaks cause excessive compressor

wear and excessive power bills.
