Operating instructions PARKING, TOWING AND LIFTING PARKING INSTRUCTIONS INSTRUCTIONS Safety precautions The operator is expected to apply all relevant Safety precautions. Attention After the first 100 km travel: Check and re-tighten the wheel nuts and towbar bolts to the specified torque.
TOWING INSTRUCTIONS Label on towbar, towing instructions Fixed towbar with support leg and brakes Towing position of jockey wheel For both non-adjustable - and adjustable towbar, the Before towing the compressor, ensure towbar should be as level as possible and the that the towing equipment of the vehicle compressor and towing eye end in a level position.

HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT (with adjustable towbar) Remove spring pin (1). Release locking nut (2). Adjust required height of the towbar. Tighten locking nut (2) by hand. Secondly tighten locking nut (2) using an extension tube (3) and hand force of 45 N/ 100 lbf. ...
BALL COUPLING (OPTION) LIFTING INSTRUCTIONS Coupling: Open coupling jaw by pulling the lever vigorously upwards in the direction of the arrow. Lower the opened coupling onto the ball of the vehicle coupling and the lever will automatically be lowered. Closing and locking are carried out automatically.
OPERATING THE COMPRESSOR BEFORE STARTING PREVENT LOW LOADS Low loads may lead to: 1. Before initial start-up, prepare battery for operation if not already done. See section High oil consumption: prolonged no-load/low Recharging a battery. load operation of the engine may cause it to blue/ grey smoke at low rpm with an associated increase 2.
CONTROL PANEL STARTING PROCEDURE Before operating the unit first read the manual. (P1) (H2) (PG) (F1) (S1) 1. Open air outlet valve, do not connect a hose yet. 2. Open the hood and switch the main switch at the back of the control panel to ON. 10 SEC 3.
1. Close the air outlet valves (AOV). turned off (start switch to position 0; also when, failure. Only the Atlas Copco customer due to cooling off, the thermocontact has closed center or an authorized distributor may 2.
GENERATOR (OPTION) Using switch (2) you can switch on the automatic control system. As soon as the generator is switched on, the automatic control system will continuously check for electric load in order to rev up the engine from idle to nominal speed only when needed. This saves fuel and reduces emissions.
Maintenance DAILY MAINTENANCE COMPRESSOR BEFORE STARTING A JOB Unauthorised modifications can result in injuries or machine damage. Drain condensate and water from spillage-free frame see Spillage-free frame Always keep the machine tidy to prevent Empty air filter vacuator valves see Air filter engine/compressor fire hazard.
