correct position of the moving parts, cables, manome-
ter, compressed air connections and all other parts im-
portant for the correct operation. Defective components
must be repaired or replaced by an authorized service
station, observing the instructions given in this manu-
al. The compressor may not be used with the pressure
control valve defective.

• The compressor may only be used for the purposes spe-

cified in this operating manual. Do not allow children
or inexperienced persons work with the compressor.
The compressor is a machine generating compressed
air. Use it according to the instructions given in this
manual. Any other use exceeds authorization. The ma-
nufacturer is not responsible for any damages resulting
from unauthorized use; risk is the sole responsibility of
the operator.

• Keep the venting grids clean, especially when working

in dirty conditions.

• Use the compressor at the rated voltage indicated on

the model plate with the electrical data. The admissible
tolerance range is +/- 5 %.

• Never use a defective compressor. If, during operation,

you note a strange noise, excessive vibrations or any
defects, switch it off immediately, check its good wor-
king order or contact your authorized service station.

• Only use original spare parts. The use of non-original

spare parts renders the warranty invalid, and it can
cause a malfunction of the compressor. Do not make
any arbitrary modification on the compressor. Have re-
pairs done by an authorized service station.

• Put the switch to OFF position when the compressor is

not used. Put the switch to „0“ (OFF) to interrupt the
power supply.

• Do not touch the hot parts of the compressor.
• Do not switch off the compressor by pulling the elec-

tric cable.

• Compressed air circuit. Use compressed air hoses and

tools made for a higher (or identical pressure) than the
maximum operating pressure of the compressor.

Additional safety notes for air compressors
Warning: Before connecting the compressor to the electric
power (main switch on machine, socket, etc.), make sure
the power supply corresponds with the data on the model
plate. A higher mains voltage can cause serious injuries
and damage the machine. Do not connect the machine in
case of doubt. If the mains voltage is too low, the motor
can get damaged.
Always pull the power supply plug before doing any mainte-
nance or adjustment work, including changing the oil.

1 Never try to remove a part from the compressor while

it is pressurized.

2 Never try to remove an electrical part while the com-

pressor is connected to the mains supply. Switch the
machine off and pull the power supply plug.

3 Do not adjust the safety valve.
4 If the drain plug underneath the switch cover (2)

does not work while the ON/OFF switch is depressed,
switch the power supply off and try to find the cause
for the defect.

5 Make sure the lubrication oil is clean and the

oil level remains in the centre of the red circle on the
oil sight glass (16).

6 Be careful when you vent the tank (from the

safety valve, the drain plug, or the air escape). Com-
