4.1 What to do
Find out how to switch off the compressor quickly and how all controls work.
Before any intervention, empty the compressor tank and disconnect the power supply in order to prevent
the unit from being switched on accidentally.
After every maintenance work, make sure that all components have been correctly reinstalled.
To ensure safe operation, always carry out the checks described in the “Commissioning“ chapter before
starting up the compressor.
Keep children and animals away from the work area to avoid injury from equipment connected to
the compressor.
Read the instructions for the assembled accessory carefully. Especially when using the spray gun,
make sure that the working area is sufficiently ventilated.
For the three-phase models, it is essential to always use the main switch on the wall to switch
the compressor on and off.
If you are working constantly near the compressor, it is recommended to use sound insulation measures.
4.2 What to refrain from
Do not work in closed rooms or near open flames.
Do not touch the cylinder head, cooling fins or pressure hose, as these parts reach very high temperatures
during operation and retain them for some time after shutdown.
Do not place flammable objects or nylon or fabric parts near the compressor.
Do not move the compressor when the container is under pressure.
Do not start the compressor if the power cable is damaged or the power connection is not secure.
Never aim the compressed air jet at persons or animals.
Ensure that no one can operate the compressor without first receiving appropriate instructions.
Do not hit the handwheel or fan wheels with pointed or metallic objects. These could break during operation.
Do not operate the compressor without an air filter.
Do not carry out any adjustment or repair work on the safety valve or the tank.
Do not use the compressor in a potentially explosive environment.
Never connect a line to the air tap with a maximum flow rate below that of the compressor.
Never operate the compressor at temperatures below 0°C (temperature 5°C / + 45°C) should be used.
