Important! The condensation water from the pressure
vessel will contain residual oil. Dispose of the condensation
water in an environmentally compatible manner at the
appropriate collection point.
7.3 Safety valve (10)
The safety valve has been set for the highest permitted
pressure of the pressure vessel. It is prohibited to adjust the
safety valve or remove its seal.
7.4 Check the oil level at regular intervals
Place the compressor on a level and straight surface. The
oil level must be between the two marks MAX and MIN on
the oil level window (Fig. 11/Item 15). Changing the oil:
Recommended hydraulic oil: SAE 15W/40 or an alternative of
the same quality. It should be refilled for the first time after
100 hours of operation. Thereafter the oil should be drained
and refilled after every 500 hours in service.
7.5 Changing the oil
Switch off the engine and pull the mains plug out of the
socket. After releasing any air pressure you can unscrew
the oil drainage screw (15) 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 compressor slightly.
Dispose of the old oil at a drop-off point for old oil.
When the oil has drained out, re-fit the oil drainage screw
(15). Fill new oil through the oil filler opening until it comes
up to the required level. Then replace the oil sealing plug
(14).
7.6 Cleaning the intake filter (1)
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 decrease the compressor's
performance dramatically. Remove the filter from the
compressor and undo the thumb screw on the air filter.
You can then remove the filter from the two halves of the
plastic housing, tap it to remove the dirt, blast it down with
low-pressure compressed air (approx. 3 bar) and re-insert it.
(Fig. 12)
7.7 Storage
Important!
Pull the mains plug out of the socket and ventilate the
appliance and all connected pneumatic tools. Switch off
the compressor and make sure that it is secured in such a
way that it cannot be started up again by any unauthorised
person.
Important!
Store the compressor only in a dry location which is not
accessible to unauthorised persons.
Always store upright, never tilted!
