Metabo Mega 350-50 W Compressor F.A.Q.

How do I properly set up the Metabo Mega 350-50 W Compressor for the first time?

To set up the Metabo Mega 350-50 W Compressor, first place it on a stable, level surface. Ensure that all components are securely attached. Connect the compressor to a power source with the correct voltage. Finally, attach the air hose and any necessary tools or accessories.

What is the recommended maintenance schedule for the Metabo Mega 350-50 W Compressor?

It is recommended to check the oil level daily, drain the tank of moisture after each use, clean the air filter monthly, and inspect the hoses and connections regularly for leaks or wear.

How can I troubleshoot if the compressor does not start?

If the compressor does not start, check the power supply and ensure that the power switch is on. Verify that the circuit breaker has not tripped. Inspect the air pressure switch and reset if necessary. If the issue persists, consult the user manual or contact customer support.

What should I do if the compressor overheats?

If the compressor overheats, turn it off immediately and allow it to cool down. Check for blocked ventilation and ensure that the ambient temperature is within operational limits. Clean any dust or debris from the cooling fins and restart the unit once cooled.

How to adjust the pressure settings on the Metabo Mega 350-50 W Compressor?

To adjust the pressure settings, locate the pressure regulator knob on the compressor. Turn the knob clockwise to increase pressure or counterclockwise to decrease it. Monitor the pressure gauge to achieve the desired setting.

What type of oil should be used for the Metabo Mega 350-50 W Compressor?

Use a high-quality air compressor oil with a viscosity grade recommended in the user manual, typically ISO VG 100 or equivalent. Avoid using automotive oils, as they may not provide the necessary lubrication.

How often should the air filter be cleaned or replaced?

The air filter should be inspected monthly and cleaned if dirty. Replace the filter every 6 months or more frequently in dusty environments. Ensure the compressor is turned off before performing maintenance on the air filter.

What is the maximum operating pressure of the Metabo Mega 350-50 W Compressor?

The maximum operating pressure of the Metabo Mega 350-50 W Compressor is 10 bar (145 psi). Ensure not to exceed this limit to maintain safe operation.

How do I drain moisture from the compressor tank?

To drain moisture, turn off the compressor and relieve the pressure. Locate the drain valve at the bottom of the tank, place a container underneath, and open the valve to release any accumulated water. Close the valve after drainage.

What safety precautions should be taken when using the Metabo Mega 350-50 W Compressor?

Always wear safety goggles and hearing protection when operating the compressor. Ensure the work area is well-ventilated and free of flammable materials. Regularly inspect hoses and connections, and never modify safety features or pressure settings beyond recommended limits.
