8.2 Condensation water (Fig. 1)
Important. To ensure a long service life of the
pressure vessel (2), drain offthe condensed wa-
ter by opening the drain valve (11) each time after
using. Check the pressure vessel for signs of rust
and damage each time before using. Do not use
the compressor with a damaged or rusty pressure
vessel. If you discover any damage, please con-
tact the customer service workshop.
Important!
The condensation water from the pressure
vessel will contain residual oil. Dispose of the
condensation water in an environmentally
compatible manner at the appropriate collec-
tion point.
8.3 Safety valve (10)
The safety valve has been set for the highest per-
mitted pressure of the pressure vessel. It is prohi-
bited to adjust the safety valve or remove its seal.
Actuate the safety valve from time to time to en-
sure that it works when required. Pull the ring with
sufficient force until you can hear the compressed
air being released.Then release the ring again.
8.4 Check the oil level at regular intervals
Place the compressor on a level and straight sur-
face.The oil level must be between the MAX and
MIN marks on the oil sealing plug (Fig. 9).
Oil change: We recommend SAE 5W/40 or an
alternative of the same quality.
It should be refilled for the first time after 10 hours
of operation.Thereafter the oil should be drained
and refilled after every 120 hours in service.
8.5 Changing the oil
Switch offthe engine and pull the mains plug out
of the socket. After releasing any air pressure you
can unscrew the oil drainage screw (15) from the
compressor pump.To prevent the oil from running
out in an uncontrolled manner, hold a small metal
chute under the opening and collect the oil in a
vessel. If the oil does not drain out completely, we
recommend tilting the compressor slightly.
Dispose of the old oil at a drop-offpoint for
old oil.
When the oil has drained out, re-fit the oil draina-
ge screw (15). Fill new oil through the oil filler ope-
ning (27) until it comes up to the required level.
Then replace the oil sealing plug (14).
8.6 Cleaning the intake filter (1)
The intake filter prevents dust and dirt being
drawn in. It is essential to clean this filter after at
least every 300 hours in operation.
A clogged intake filter will decrease the
compressor‘s performance dramatically. Undo the
screw on the air filter so that the halves of the air
filter housing can be opened. Use compressed
air at low pressure (approx. 3 bar) to blow out all
the parts of the filter and then assemble the filter
in reverse order. When cleaning, take adequate
precautions against dust (e.g. use a suitable face
mask).
8.7 Storage
Warning!
Pull the mains plug out of the socket and ventilate
the appliance and all connected pneumatic tools.
Switch offthe compressor and make sure that it is
secured in such a way that it cannot be started up
again by any unauthorized person.
Important!
Store the compressor only in a dry location
which is not accessible to unauthorized per-
sons. Always store upright, never tilted!
