compressor (e.g. feed line, etc.) failure.
Operation at lower temperatures
At lower temperatures, below 5°C, problems may
be experienced when starting. They are manifested
by growling of the electric motor. In such a case, the
appliance must be immediately switched off and oil
(5W30) changed in warmer conditions.
To guarantee perfect and reliable operation of the
rotary and percussive pneumatic tools such as impact
wrenches, staplers or nailers, etc., the compressed air
must be supplied filtered - with oil via the lubricator
or maintenance unit
A filtered water separator should be used for var-
nishing in any case.
To select a suitable pneumatic tool, the tool air
consumption and the compressor effective amount
delivered must necessarily be considered.
(Pneumatic tools and accessory equipment can be
Never yank the power cable to disconnect the plug
from the power outlet or to move the compressor.
Warning: the compressor may restart when power is
restored following a blackout.
