Troubleshooting

A
Danger!
Prior to all servicing:
– Switch machine OFF.
– Unplug power cable.
– Wait until the compressor has come
to a complete stop.
– Ensure the compressor and all air
tools and accessories connected to
it are relieved from pressure.
– Let the device and all air tools and
accessories cool down.
After all servicing:
– Reactivate all safety devices and
ensure they are operational.
– Make sure that no tools or other
parts remain on or in the machine.
Compressor does not run:
No mains voltage.
x
– Check cables, plug, outlet and
mains fuse.
Mains voltage too low.
x
– Use only extension cables of suf-
59
ficient lead cross section (see
'Technical Data'). When the ma-
chine is cold avoid extension ca-
bles and relieve the pressure in
the pressure tank.
Compressor was stopped by un-
x
plugging.
– Switch compressor OFF and
then ON again using the On/Off
switch.
Motor has overheated, e.g. due to
x
insufficient cooling (cooling fins cov-
ered).

using the ON/OFF switch and al-
low to cool.
– Eliminate the cause of overheat-
ing.
Only for version with AC motor:
– Check the motor protection
switch; reset if necessary.
– Switch the compressor back on.
Compressor runs but does not build
up sufficient pressure.
Condensate drain cock of pressure
x
tank leaky.
– Check gasket of drain cock(s);
replace if necessary.
– Tighten drain cock(s) hand-tight.
Check valve leaky.
x
ENGLISH
– Have check valve serviced by
qualified service centre.
Air tool is not supplied with suffi-
cient pressure.
Pressure regulator not opened wide
x
enough.
– Open pressure regulator more.
Hose connection between compres-
x
sor and air tool leaky.
– Check air hoses; replace defec-
tive parts if necessary.
Further work on the machine should
only be carried out by a qualified
