Installation of air filter
Twist the threaded rod with the
short thread into the opening of the
compressor head and tighten it a
little with pliers.
Then place the air filter housing,
into which the filter cartridge has
already been inserted, over the
threaded rod into the opening of the
compressor.
Then secure the filter on the threa-
ded rod with the wing nut.
Electrical connection
Types 300/50 W and 300/100 W
are fitted with a mains supply with
safety plug. They can be connected
to any 230 V - 50 Hz socket outlet
with earthing contact with a 16 A
fuse.
The motor is protected against
overloading with a thermal overload
circuit breaker. If the rated power
current is exceeded, the overload
circuit breaker switches off. Long
leads, extensions, cable drums etc.
cause a voltage drop and can
reduce the the ability of the motor
to start. At temperatures under 0°
C, sluggishness will cause pro-
blems with the motor starting up.
Types 400/50D and 400/100D are
supplied only with mains wiring,
without CEE plug. Fiting of a CEE
mains plug must be carried out by a
specialist.

Important note:
Make sure that direction of rota-
tion is correct – see directional
arrow on belt guard or fan pro-
peller.
The three-phase motor is protected
against winding damage by an
overload circuit breaker in the
motor terminal box in the event of
phase failure, overloading and
short-circuiting. It is switched back
on by pressing the rocker switch on
the overload circuit breaker.
Important:
Unplug from the mains before
carrying out maintenance, repair
and inspection work.
Care and maintenance
G Condensation water:
The condensation water is to be
let out every day by opening the
drainage valve (underside of
pressure vessel).
G Safety valve:
The safety valve is set at the hig-
hest permissible pressure of the
pressure vessel. No-one is allo-
wed to adjust the safety valve or
to remove its lead seal.
The safety valve should be ope-
rated from time to time to ensure
that it works properly when nee-
ded.
For this, turn the knurled screw
to the left until the compressed
air can be heard blowing off.
Then turn the knurled screw as
far as possible to the right and
tighten by hand.
G Check the oil level regularly:
The oil level must be visible in
the inspection glass between the
upper and the lower marks.
Oil change: recommended oil:
SAE 15W/40 or equivalent.
The first batch of oil should be
changed after 100 operating
hours.
After this, the oil should be drai-
ned off and replaced with new oil
every 500 operating hours.
