hi all
i got a brand new compressor,50l 2hp 230v the other day.
after an hour of reading the manual which was badly translated from
chinese to so called english i thought right were ready to go.
i plugged it in,it ran for less than a second and went bang.
at this point it sounded like the motor was trying to spin on its own but not
doing anything and smelled very much of burning.
i did use an extension as it will be took to sites and needs one,but after reading up on a few websites i maybe should not have done this but the
extension works fine on a veriety of other tools with no problems.
i have sent the compressor beack and am due to recieve a new one tommorow,i really dont want it to do the same thing again,any advice please?
thanks in advance
