Scheppach HC 51 Translation From The Original Instruction Manual page 15

cause a chemical reaction with aluminium that is used
in some paint spray cartridges and can cause an explo-
sion. If these liquids are used, make sure the spraying
is only done with spraying bins made of stainless steel.
The compressor is not impaired by these liquids.
• Never inhale directly the compressed air produced by
the compressor. Do not use the compressed air for fill-
ing breathing tanks.
• Do not use any welding equipment near the compressor.
Do not weld anything to the air tank of the compres-
sor: This could dangerously weaken the tank and would
render the warranty invalid.
• Do not work with the compressor in the open air while
it is raining, or on a wet base. Any of these situations
could cause an electric shock.
• Always switch off the compressor after use and be-
fore doing any maintenance work. Press the ON/OFF
button and wait until the compressed air has escaped
from the tank via the drain valve. Then pull the power
supply plug.
• Check the maximum admissible pressure of all devices
used with the compressor. The output pressure on the
compressor must be set in such a way that it never
exceeds the prescribed pressure of devices or acces-
sories.
• In order to reduce the risk of injury from moving parts,
never operate the compressor without the guard fitted.
Let hot components cool down before touching them.
• Read all labels and notes on the paint tank or on other
spray materials. Carefully observe all safety instruc-
tions. Wear a breathing mask when there is a risk of
inhaling spray materials. Carefully check the function
of the breathing mask before putting it on.
• Always wear goggles when handling the compressor.
Never direct the nozzle of an accessory towards your
body or towards another person.
• Do not try to adjust the pressure switch or the drain
valve underneath the pressure switch cover.
• Remove daily the liquid from the tank in order to avoid
corrosion.
• Pull the ring on the safety valve to make sure it works
well.
• Keep the compressor at least 300 mm away from the
wall in order to ensure sufficient venting for the cool-
ing.
• Before you transport the compressor, drain the com-
pressed air from the tank and secure the machine safe-
ly.
• Protect the air hose and the cable set from damage.
Regularly examine the components for weak and worn
spots, and replace them in case of need.
• Do not use an extension cable for this product. Use
instead an additional air hose in order to avoid a drop
in power and a possible motor damage. The use of an
extension cable makes the warranty invalid.
• After a long period of work, the outer metal parts can
get hot.
• Press the ON/OFF switch to switch off the compres-
sor. Only then cut the mains supply or pull the power
supply plug.
• Before working with the compressor, check the oil level.
It must be near the red circle as shown on the display.
Attention: Oil must be filled in before the initial putting
into operation.
• After using the compressor, press the ON/OFF switch,
cut off the mains supply, and open the drain valve in
order to reduce the pressure.
