Important Usage Guidelines:
Piston-type compressors are not designed for continuous operation.
- Direct Drive Models: 40–50% duty cycle
- Belt Drive Hobby Models: 60–70% duty cycle
- Industrial Belt Drive Models: 75–85% duty cycle
Exceeding these duty cycles may lead to compressor failure. Always check site voltage before operation—low voltage (under 230V) can damage the motor. Avoid extension leads, as they cause voltage drop; use longer air hoses instead.
