LIFTING INSTRUCTIONS
To lift the compressor, use a lift truck or crane with
sufficient capacity (weight: see indication on Disposal).
See to it that the compressor will be lifted vertically and
remains level.
Lifting acceleration and retardation must
!
be kept within safe limits (max. 2xg).
Helicopter lifting is not allowed.
Lifting is not allowed when the unit is
running.
When hoisting, the apex angle of the
hoisting sling is not to exceed a maximum of
60°.
BEFORE STARTING
1.
Before initial start-up, prepare battery for operation if
not already done. See section Recharging a battery.
2.
Check that the draining caps in the spillage-free
frame are firmly tightened.
3.
With the compressor standing level, check the level
of the engine oil. Add oil, if necessary, up to the
upper mark on the dipstick. Also check the engine
coolant level. Consult the Engine Operation Manual
for the type of coolant and type and viscosity grade
of the engine oil.
4.
Remove the air receiver drain plug (1), see figure,
and open the valve to drain possible condensate.
Close the valve when oil comes out and reinstall the
drain plug. The interval between draining operations
may be determined by experience, as the amount of
condensate depends on the operating condition.
Before draining, ensure that the pressure is
!
released.
5.
Check the level of the compressor oil. See section
Check compressor oil level. The pointer of oil level
gauge (OLG) should register in the green range. Add
oil if necessary. See section Compressor oil for the
oil to be used.
Before removing oil filler plug (FP), ensure
!
that pressure is released by opening an air
outlet valve.

6.
Check that the fuel tank contains sufficient fuel. Top
up, if necessary. Consult the Engine Operation Man-
ual for the type of fuel
Make sure the unit is in a level position not
exceeding 8° before refuelling.
7.
Drain any water and sediment from the fuel filters
until clean fuel flows from the drain cock.
8.
Empty the dust trap of each air filter (AF). See sec-
tion Replacing the filter element and the safety car-
tridge.
9.
Clogged air filter(s) will be indicated on the display
of the control panel, see section Fault codes. If indi-
cated, replace the filter elements.
10. Check coolant level in engine coolant top tank inte-
grated in radiator. Top up, if necessary. Consult the
Engine Operation Manual for coolant specifications.
11. Check that the battery switch is "ON". The battery
switch may only be switched off after the control unit
has been switched off.
12. Attach the air line(s) to the closed air outlet valve(s).
13. Use hoses with suitable pressure rating and fit for the
environmental conditions. Always install the pull
relief (2), see figure. Inspect hoses and connections
daily.
No external force may be applied to the air
!
outlet valve(s), e.g. by pulling hoses or by
connecting equipment directly to the
valve(s).
