About these Operating Instructions
1 — 2 01_0003_0802GB
These Operating Instructions are intended to familiarise the user with
the machine and to assist him in using the machine properly in va-
rious possible applications.
The Operating Instructions contain important information on how to
operate the machine safely, properly and economically. Taking these
instructions into consideration will help
-- to avoid dangers,
-- to reduce repair costs and downtimes,
-- to increase the reliability and service life of the machine.
The Operating Instructions must be supplemented by the relevant
national rules and regulations for accident prevention and environ-
mental protection.
The Operating Instructions must always be available wherever the
machine is in use.
The machine owner must make the location of these Operating In-
structions known to all personnel charged with performing jobs
on the machine and ensure they are accessible. These operating
instructions must be read and applied by any person who carries out
work with or on the machine, e.g.
-- operation, including setting up, fault rectification in the course of
work, removal of production waste, care and disposal of fuels and
consumables,
-- service (maintenance, inspection, repair), and/or
-- transport.
The generally recognised rules of technology for safe and proper
working must be observed in addition to the Operating Instructions
and mandatory rules and regulations for accident prevention and
environmental protection in the country and place of use of the ma-
chine.

The Branch or Agent serving you, or the Aichtal Works, will be happy
to give you more information, should you have any questions follo-
wing your study of the Operating Instructions.
You will make it much easier for us to answer any questions if you
can give us the details of the machine model and the machine num-
ber.
Modifications are made from time to time in the interests of constant
improvement and it could be possible that we were unable to take
these into consideration when these Operating Instructions were
printed.
These operating instructions are not covered by the Amendment
Service of Maschinenbau Rudolf GmbH. Alterations may be made
to these operating instructions without prior notification.
The contents of this document may not be reproduced, even in part,

2 Safety Regulations
This chapter summarises the most important safety regulations. This
Chapter must be read and understood by all persons who handle
the machine. The various regulations are also repeated once more at
the appropriate points in the Operating Instructions.
Notes
Special safety regulations may be necessary for some tasks. These
special safety regulations will only be found in the description of the
particular task.
The following safety instructions should be regarded as a supple-
ment to already existing valid national accident prevention regula-
tions and laws.
Existing accident prevention regulations and laws must be observed
in all cases.

Safety Regulations
2 — 2 03_0018_0508GB
Use only machines in a technically perfect condition, as designated
and being conscious of safety and the dangers, taking account of
the Operating Instructions. Any faults, especially those affecting the
safety of the machine, must, therefore, be rectified immediately.
Make sure that
-- no safety equipment is removed, rendered inoperable or modified,
-- safety equipment removed for the purposes of maintenance work
is refitted immediately after the work is completed.
Check operational safety every time you start work. Any defects
found or suspected must be eliminated immediately. If necessary,
inform the project supervisor.
If defects or faults are found or suspected during operation, opera-
tion must cease immediately. Eliminate the defect or fault before re-
starting.
The following should be noted if you sell the machine on:
Pass on to the new operator all the accompanying documentation
(Operating Instructions, Maintenance Instructions, diagrams, ma-
chine cards, inspection certificates etc.) you received with your ma-
chine. If necessary, you may have to order the papers from us, quo-
ting the machine number. The machine may not be sold on without
the accompanying documentation under any circumstances.
Reporting an onwards sale or acquisition to Maschinenbau Rudolf
ensures that you will be sent any information relating to modifications
or in-novations relevant to safety, and you will also be eligible for
technical consultancy from our works.
2.1 Principle
Onwards sale

Safety Regulations
2 — 3
03_0128_0802GB
The machine has been built in accordance with the state of the art
technology and recognised safety rules. Nevertheless, its use may
constitute a risk to life and limb of the operator or of third parties, or
cause damage to the machine and to other property.
The machine must only be used as specified in the Operating
Instructions and the enclosed documentation. All information and
safety regulations in the Operating Instructions must be observed.
The machine is designed for generating compressed air for
industrial use!
It compresses atmospheric air of the usual degree of purity to
operating overpressure and delivers a given volume flow at this
pressure.
Use for other purposes, operation with intake mediums other than
breathable air, use of the compressed air for non-industrial purposes
and operation above or below the factory-set operating ranges for
pressure, speed, temperature, etc. is unspecified use!
The operator must provide personal protective equipment which
should be used by the operating personnel.
Personal protective equipment includes:
-- Protective helmet
-- Ear defenders
-- Protective goggles
-- Face protection visor
-- Protective suit
-- Protective gloves
-- Protective boots

designated use. Maschinenbau Rudolf GmbH accepts no liability for
damage resulting from such use. The risk of such misuse lies
entirely with the machine operator.
Never make any modifications, additions or conversions to the ma-
chine which might affect safety without first obtaining the manufactu-
rer’s approval. This also applies to the installation and adjustment of
safety devices and valves as well as to welding work on load-bea-
ring elements.
