Operation Instructions Airbrush Compressor AS186: ARTICLE 34208
Read and follow the operating instructions and safety information before using for the first time.
Do not open the compressor in a wet or damp environment or when you are wet yourself and protect it
from direct sunlight. Install this device in a safe location so that nobody can step on the cable, fall over
or damage it. Make sure additionally you provide sufficient cooling through the ambient air and avoid
heat accumulation. Disconnect the power plug before cleaning the airbrush compressor and use only
a damp cloth for cleaning. Avoid using cleaning agents and take care that no fluids penetrate into the
device.
The interior of the airbrush compressor contains no parts that can be inspected or serviced by the
user. Leave the maintenance, adjustment and repair to qualified technical personnel. In case of
unauthorised intervention the 2-year warranty is no longer valid! Keep this operation instructions safe.
Safety guideline
BEWARE:
The use of this device is allowed only with fault current protection switch with a triggering nominal
current up to 30mA (according to VDE 0100 Article 702 and 738).
The device is not intended for use by persons (including children) with impaired or limited physical,
sensory and mental abilities or lack of experience and/or real knowledge, unless they are supervised
by a person responsible for their safety or you follow the instructions made by this person how to use
the device correctly.
Children should be supervised to make sure that they do not play with the device.
ATTENTION:
• The head of the compressor (with cooling fins) can get very hot.
• Run a visual inspection of the device before every use. Do not use the device if the safety
appliances are damaged or worn out. Never override safety regulations.
• Use the device exclusively according to the intended purpose stated in the instructions for
use.
• You are responsible for the safety of the working environment.
• If the cable or the plug is damaged due to external influences the cable must not be repaired!
It has to be replaced with a new one. This work can be carried out only by an electrician.
• The voltage indicated on the type plate of the device of 230 Volt alternating voltage has to
correspond to the existent mains voltage.
• Never lift, carry or fixate the device by using the power cable.
• Make sure that the electrical plug connection is placed in a flood-proof area and is protected
from moisture.
• Disconnect the mains plug before starting the maintenance work at the compressor.
• The user is responsible for complying with the location specific safety and mounting
regulations (you can ask an electrician)
• In case of device failure the repairs can be carried out only by an electrician or by the WilTec-
repair service.
• The user should choose the right compressor with the appropriate air volume and air pressure
to correspond to the actual work requirements.
• Never expose the device to dust, acid, steam, explosive or flammable gases or atmospheric
influences (rain, sun, fog, snow).
• The vacuum pump can be operated only in an appropriate environment (well ventilated,
ambient temperature +5 - +40 degrees C).
• Never use the compressor barefoot or with wet hands or feet.
• Never allow children to touch the switched-on compressor or to insert the plug. It may cause
burns or electric shocks.
• Do not open or damage any part of the compressor. If necessary please contact your seller.
• Release the water by opening the drain valve. Always do so before not using the compressor
for a long time. Store the compressor in a well ventilated place.
• Always wear goggles. Under no circumstances should you direct the airflow towards your
body or other persons’ bodies.
• Never use in areas with steam or moisture or close to water.
• Switch off the compressor if you do not use it. Disconnect from mains before you repair,
recondition, maintain, clean or replace parts. Never use the power cable as handle. Keep the
power cable away from hot objects, oil and sharp edges. Protect it against breakage. Do not
pull the power cable in order to unplug it from the power socket.
• If the compressor is used outdoors, only approved extensions may be used. Every wire of the
2
extension cable must have at least 1, 5 mm cross- section.
• Do not store the compressor with the plug inserted into the plug. Do not allow children or any
other people who are not able to handle this device to play or work with it.
• Be very careful when you are working with the compressor. Do not use it if you are tired.
Persons under the influence of alcohol, drugs or medication are not allowed to use this device.
• When you start working make sure that all screws are tightened.
• Do not use the compressor if it is damaged. If the compressor generates unusual noises and
strong vibrations or if other unusual signs occur that indicate some damage you should turn
off the compressor immediately. For repairs please use only original spare parts. Do not make
any technical modifications to the compressor. In case you cannot eliminate the malfunction
hand over the device to your seller.

User notes
Usually the compressor outlet has a 1/8 inch-external thread. If you need ¼ inch-external thread, you
need to use an adapter to connect it to different air hoses. The original air hose is airtight. If the air
hose is not airtight this affects the auto stop function (repeated switch on and off). The sealing of the
screw connections can be made with the help of Teflon band.
Connect the compressor, the air hose, and the airbrush-gun or other air tools, connect the compressor
to the voltage, turn it on and the compressor starts running. The manometer will show maximal
pressure and you can adjust the operating pressure with the pressure regulator.
The compressor AS 186 has a tank, in which compressed air can be stored before supplying the
airbrush. The tank has the following advantages:
1. The tank represents a supply of compressed air that you can use for airbrushing.
2. You can release air at the tank with its set pressure instead of working pistons with average
pressure.
3. Because you release the air from the tank you eliminate the small oscillatory air flows in the air
pressure which are caused by the movement of the pistons.
4. The lifetime of the compressor motor extends itself because the motor runs only when the tank
requires it instead of always being turned on.
5. Tanks are generally the first moisture traps.

b) Manometer
c) Water drain plug
Specifications:
The HS-F2 is an in-line low pressure regulator with 9 bar (100 psi) manometer and water drain plug.
This regulator allows you to control the pressure and helps generating clean, dry, pressure-stable air.
The regulator can be used only according to the operating instructions.
Operation:
1. The manometer reports the working pressure of the air tool.
2. Pull up the adjusting knob; its clockwise rotation increases the pressure, and a counter-clockwise
rotation reduces the pressure.
3. Rotate the adjusting knob to achieve the right working pressure and fixate it downwards by
clicking it into place.
4. Do not rotate the knob against high resistance. If necessary the height and the position of the of
the knob can vary slightly.
5. For emptying the condensed water collector use the water drain plug.
