9.1 Cleaning
• Keep the safety devices free of dirt and dust
as far as possible. Wipe the equipment with a
clean cloth or blow it with compressed air at
low pressure.
• We recommend that you clean the appliance
immediately after you use it.
• Clean the appliance regularly with a damp
cloth and some soft soap. Do not use
cleaning agents or solvents; these may be
aggressive to the plastic parts in the appliance.
Ensure that no water can get into the
interior of the appliance.
• You must disconnect the hose and any
spraying tools from the compressor before
cleaning. Do not clean the compressor with
water, solvents or the like.
9.2 Condensation water (Fig. 1)
Important. To ensure a long service life of the
pressure vessel (2), drain off the condensed water
by opening the drain valve (11) each time after
using. Check the pressure vessel for signs of rust
and damage each time before using. Do not use
the compressor with a damaged or rusty pressure
vessel. If you discover any damage, please
contact the customer service workshop.
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.
9.3 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.
Actuate the safety valve from time to time to
ensure that it works when required. Pull the
ring with sufficient force until you can hear the
compressed air being released. Then release the
ring again.

9.4 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 oil level window
(Fig. 9).
Changing the oil: Recommended hydraulic oil:
SAE 5W/40 or an alternative of the same quality.
It should be refilled for the first time after 10
hours of operation. Thereafter the oil should
be drained and refilled after every 100 hours in
service.

9.5 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 fi
ller opening (13) until it comes up to the required
level.
Then replace the oil sealing plug (14).
