Check the pressure vessel for signs of rust and dam-
age each time before using. Do not use the compres-
sor with a damaged or rusty pressure vessel. If you
discover any damage, then please contact the cus-
tomer service workshop.
Safety valve (Fig. 1/Pos. 16)
The safety valve (16) has been set for the highest
permitted pressure of the pressure vessel. It is pro-
hibited to adjust the safety valve or remove its seal.
Actuate the safety valve from time to time to ensure
that it works when required. Pull the ring with suffi
cient force until you can hear the compressed air be-
ing released.
There lease the ring again.
Checking the oil level at regular intervals (Figure
6)
Place the compressor on a level and straight surface.
The oil level must be between the MAX and MIN
marks on the oil level window (18).
Oil change: we recommend SAE 15W 40 or equiva-
lent. The original oil fi lling must be changed after 100
hours in operation; thereafter the oil must be drained
and replaced with new oil after every 500 hours in
operation.
Changing the oil (Figure 6)
Switch off the engine and pull the mains plug out of
the socket. After releasing any air pressure you can
unscrew the oil drain plug (19) 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 compres-
sor slightly. When the oil has drained out, re fit the oil
drain plug (19).
Dispose of the old oil at a drop-off point for old oil.
To fill in the correct quantity of oil, make sure that the
compressor stands on an even surface. Fill new oil
through the oil filler opening until it comes up to the
maximum level. This is marked with a red dot on the
oil level window (18) (Fig. 6 pos. 18.1). Do not exceed
the maximum filling quantity. Overfilling the equip
-
ment may result in damage. Reinsert the oil sealing
plug (13) into the oil filler opening.
Cleaning the intake filter (Fig. 7, 8)
The intake filter prevents dust and dirt being drawn
in. It is essential to clean this filter after at least every
300 hours in service. A clogged intake filter will de
-
crease the compressor’s performance dramatically.
Then pull off the fi lter cover (K). Now you can remove
the air filter (L) and the filter housing (M). Carefully tap
out the air filter, filter cover and filter housing. Then
blow out these parts with compressed air (approx. 3
bar) and reinstall in reverse order.
Electrical connection cables must comply with the
applicable VDE and DIN provisions. Only use con-
nection cables with the marking „H05VV-F“.
The printing of the type designation on the connec-
tion cable is mandatory.

Cleaning, maintenance, and storage
n
Important!
Pull out the power plug before doing any cleaning and
maintenance work on the equipment. Risk of injury
from electric shock!
n
Important!
Wait until the equipment has cooled down complete-
ly! Risk of burns!
n
Important!
Always depressurize the equipment before carrying
out any cleaning and maintenance work! Risk of in-
jury!
Cleaning
• Keep the equipment free of dirt and dust as far as
possible. Wipe the equipment with a clean cloth or
blow it down with compressed air at low pressure.
• We recommend that you clean the equipment im-
mediately after you use it.
• Clean the equipment regularly with a damp cloth
and some soft soap. Do not use cleaningagents or
solvents; these may be aggressive to the plastic
parts in the equipment. Ensure that no water can
get into the interior of the equipment.
• You must disconnect the hose and any spraying
tools from the compressor before cleaning. Do not
clean the compressor with water, solvents or the
like.
Maintenance work on the pressure vessel/con-
densed water (Fig. 1)
m
Important!
To ensure a long service life of the pressure ves-
sel (7), drain off the condensed water by opening
the drain valve (15) each time after using.
Release the vessel pressure first. Open the drain
screw by turning counter-clockwise (looking at the
screw from the bottom of the compressor) so that
all the condensed water can run out of the pres-
sure vessel. Then close the drain screw again (turn
it clockwise).
