To prevent hazards, leave the replacement of
damaged power cables strictly to the manufac-
turer or a qualified electrician. There is a risk of
electric shock!
19
Inflating tires
–
Directly after inflating tires, check the pressure
with a suitable pressure gauge, for example at
your filling station.
20
Roadworthy compressors for building site operations
–
Make sure that all lines and fittings are suitable for
the maximum permissible operating pressure of
the compressor.
21
Place of installation
–
Set up the compressor on an even surface.

Supply hoses at pressures above 7 bar should be
equipped with a safety cable (e.g. a wire rope).
ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Safety instructions for working with compressed air
and blasting guns
•
The compressor pump and lines can become very hot
during operation. Touching these parts will burn you.
•
The air which is sucked in by the compressor must be
kept free of impurities that could cause fires or explo-
sions in the compressor pump.
•
When releasing the hose coupling, hold the hose cou-
pling piece with your hand. This way, you can protect
yourself against injury from the rebounding hose.
•
Wear safety goggles when working with the blow-out
pistol. Foreign bodies or blown off parts can easily
cause injuries.
•
Do not blow at people with the blow-out pistol and do
not clean clothes while being worn. Risk of injury!
Safety information for paint spraying
•
Do not process any paints or solvents with a flash point
below 55° C. There is a risk of explosion!
•
Do not heat up paints or solvents. There is a risk of ex-
plosion!
•
If hazardous liquids are processed, wear protective fil-
ter units (face guards). Also, adhere to the safety infor-
mation provided by the manufacturers of such liquids.
•
The details and designations of the Ordinance on Haz-
ardous Substances, which are displayed on the outer
packaging of the processed material, must be ob-
served.
•
Additional protective measures are to be undertaken if
necessary, particularly the wearing of suitable clothing
and masks.
•
Do not smoke during the spraying process and/or in the
work area. There is a risk of explosion! Paint vapors are
easily combustible.
•
Never set up or operate the equipment in the vicinity of
a fire place, open lights or sparking machines.
•
Do not store or eat food and drink in the work area.
Paint vapors are harmful to your health.
•
The work area must exceed 30 m
3
and sufficient ven-
tilation must be ensured during spraying and drying.
Do not spray against the wind. Always adhere to the
regulations of the local police authority when spraying
combustible or hazardous materials.
•
Do not process media such as white spirit, butyl alcohol
and methylene chloride with the PVC pressure hose.
These media will destroy the pressure hose.
Operating pressure vessels
•
You must keep your pressure vessel in good working
order, operate the vessel correctly, monitor the vessel,
carry out necessary maintenance and repair work im-
mediately and meet the relevant safety precautions.
•
The supervisory authority may enforce essential control
measures in individual cases.
•
A pressure vessel is not allowed to be used if it has
faults or deficiencies that can endanger workers or third
parties.
•
Check the pressure vessel for signs of rust and dam-
age each time before using. Do not use the compressor
with a damaged or rusty pressure vessel. If you discover
any damage, then please contact the customer service
workshop.
