Cleaning:
– After 1500 operating hours, however, at the latest after one year.
NOTICE!
The service life of the compressed air/oil cooling unit depends on the degree
of soiling (dust, oil vapour) of the suctioned cooling air. Extreme external soil-
ing of the cooling unit leads to an increased temperature in the oil circuit.
– Switch off the compressor using the OFF button.
WARNING: Risk of injury!
Prior to any maintenance and servicing work take all necessary safety pre-
cautions described on page 44!
WARNING!
Do not use any sharp objects for cleaning!
These could damage the cooling unit.

ning taking all safety measures into consideration.
