• Long supply cables, extensions, cable reels etc.
cause a drop in voltage and can impede motor
start-up.
• At low temperatures below +5 °C, sluggishness
may make starting difficult or impossible.
8.4 ON/OFF switch (fig. 2)
• To switch on the compressor, press the button (8)
on position I.
•
To switch off the compressor, press the button (8)
on position 0.
8.5 Setting the pressure (fig. 2)
• You can adjust the pressure on the pressure gauge
(6) using the pressure regulator (7).
• The set pressure can be taken from the quick lock
coupling (5).
8.6 Setting the pressure switch
• The pressure switch is set at the factory.
Cut-in pressure approx. 6 bar.
Cut-out pressure approx. 8 bar.
8.7 Overload protection switch (fig. 8 pos. 12)
• The compressor has an automatic protection
against thermal overload. The overload protector
is activated at high engine temperature.
•
The device is turned off. Re-commissioning of the
device can be done only after cooling down and
manual reset.
• Follows after activation:
–
Let the unit cool down,
–
Press the overload protection switch (12)
9. Electrical connection
The electrical motor installed is connected and
ready for operation. The connection complies
with the applicable VDE and DIN provisions. The
customer‘s mains connection as well as the ex-
tension cable used must also comply with these
regulations.
Damaged electrical connection cable
The insulation on electrical connection cables is of-
ten damaged.
This may have the following causes:
• Passage points, where connection cables are
passed through windows or doors.
• Kinks where the connection cable has been im-
properly fastened or routed.
• Places where the connection cables have been cut
due to being driven over.
• Insulation damage due to being ripped out of the
wall outlet.
• Cracks due to the insulation ageing.
Such damaged electrical connection cables must not
be used and are life-threatening due to the insula-
tion damage.
Check the electrical connection cables for damage
regularly.
7. Before starting the equipment
Before you connect the equipment to the mains sup-
ply make sure that the data on the rating plate are
identical to the mains data.
• Check the equipment for damage which may have
occurred in transit. Report any damage immedi-
ately to the transport company which was used to
deliver the compressor.
• Install the compressor near the point of consumption.
• Avoid long air lines and supply lines (extension
cables).
• Make sure that the intake air is dry and dustfree.
• Do not install the compressor in a damp or wet
room.
• The compressor may only be used in suitable
rooms (with good ventilation and an ambient tem-
perature from +5 °C to 40 °C). There must be no
dust, acids, vapors, explosive gases or inflamma
-
ble gases in the room.
• The compressor is designed to be used in dry
rooms. It is prohibited to use the compressor in
areas where work is conducted with sprayed water.
8. Attachment and operation
m
Important!
You must fully assemble the appliance before
using it for the first time!
You will require the following tools for assembly and
installation: 2 x open-ended wrench size 14 mm and
17 mm (not included)
8.1 Fitting the wheels (fig. 6,7)
• Insert the wheel bolt (d) through the wheel (3) and
slide on a washer (e) with the bolt (d). Now feed
the wheel bolt (d) through the hole provided on the
compressor. Slide the washer (c) and the spring
washer (f) onto the bolt and secure the wheel with
the hexagonal nut (g).
• Carry out the same procedure with the second
wheel (3).
8.2 Fitting the supporting foot (fig. 5)
• Slide the hexagonal screw (a) through the foot
(4). Fit a washer (c) between the compressor and
the foot (4). Now feed the combination through
the hole provided and secure the screw (a) with a
washer (c) and nut (b).
• Carry out the same procedure with the second
foot (4).
8.3 Mains connection
• The compressor is equipped with a mains cable
with shock-proof plug. This can be connected to
any 230V~ / 50 Hz shock-proof socket which is
protected by a 16 A fuse.
• Before you use the machine, make sure that the
mains voltage is the same as the operating voltage
(see the rating plate).
