Safety devices

Safety valve
The spring-loaded safety valve (18) is
incorporated into the pressure switch.
The safety valve opens if the max. per-
missible pressure is exceeded.

4. Operation

4.1

Mains connection

B
Danger! High Voltage
Operate machine in dry envi-
ronment only.
Operate machine only on a power
source complying with the following
requirements:
− outlets properly installed, earthed
and tested;
− fuse protection in accordance
with the technical specifications.
Position power cable so it does not
interfere with the work and is not
damaged.
Always check to see that the machine
is switched OFF before plugging in.
B
Check direction of rotation!
Depending on
sequence, the motor could turn in the
wrong direction. This can damage the
machine. Therefore the direction of
rotation is to be checked every time
the machine is connected to the
power supply: The pulley of the com-
pressor pump must turn in the direc-
tion indicated by the arrow on the belt
guard.
If it turns in the wrong direction, two
phases must be interchanged in the
power cable plug:
1. Unplug.
2. Interchange phases with a scre-
wdriver as illustrated:
− Depress switch (19) slightly.
− and turn by 180 °.

3. Plug power cable in again.
Protect
aggressive liquids and sharp edges.
Use only extension cables with suffi-
cient lead cross section (see "Techni-
cal Specifications").
Do not stop the machine by unplug-
ging, but switch OFF using the ON/
OFF switch.

Unplug after use.
4.2 Generating compressed
air
1. Connect air hose to compressor.
Depending on the purpose of appli-
cation two outlets are available.
− Air outlet for regulated, filtered
compressed air (20).
− Air outlet for non-regulated, unfil-
tered compressed air (21).

2. Start compressor (22) and wait until
the max. tank pressure is reached
(compressor shuts off).

The tank pressure is indicated by
the tank pressure gauge (23).

3. Set pressure regulator (24) to
required working pressure. The cur-
rent working pressure is indicated
by the regulated pressure gauge
(25).
A
Caution!
Before connecting an air tool,
make sure the max. operating pres-
sure of the air tool used is not excee-
ded!
4. Connect air tool to the compressor's
air hose. You are now ready to work
with the air tool.
5. Switch the compressor OFF, if you
do not continue working immediately
afterwards. Unplug after switching
OFF.

5. Care and Maintenance

A
Danger!
Prior to all servicing:
− Switch Off.
− Unplug.
− Wait until the compressor has
come to a complete stop.
− Ensure the compressor and all air
tools and accessories connected
to it are relieved from pressure.
After all servicing:
− Check to see that all safety
devices are operational.
− Make sure that no tools or other
parts remain on or in the machine.
Repair and maintenance work other
than described in this section must
only be carried out by qualified speci-
alists.
5.1

Periodic maintenance
