7. Before starting the equipment
Before you connect the equipment to the mains supply
make sure that the data on the rating plate are identical
to the mains data.
• Check the equipment for damage which may have
occurred in transit. Report any damage immediately
to the transport company which was used to deliver
the compressor.
• Install the compressor near the point of consumption.
• Avoid long air lines and supply lines (extension ca-
bles).
• Make sure that the intake air is dry and dustfree.
• Do not install the compressor in a damp or wet room.
• The compressor may only be used in suitable rooms
(with good ventilation and an ambient temperature
from +5 °C to 40 °C). There must be no dust, acids,
vapors, explosive gases or inflammable gases in the
room.
• The compressor is designed to be used in dry rooms.
It is prohibited to use the compressor in areas where
work is conducted with sprayed water.
• The oil level in the compressor pump has to be
checked before putting the equipment into operation.
8. Attachment and operation
m Important!
You must fully assemble the appliance before using it
for the first time!
You will require the following tools for assembly and in-
stallation: 2 x open-ended wrench size 19 mm (not in-
cluded)
You will require the following tools for assembly and in-
stallation: 2 x open-ended wrench size 14 mm (not in-
cluded)
8.1 Fitting the wheels (Fig. 5)
• Fit the supplied wheels (11) as shown.
8.2 Fitting the supporting foot (2x)(Fig. 6)
• Fit the supplied supporting foot (2x) as shown.
8.3 Fitting the air filter (2x)(Fig. 7,8)
• Remove the transportation stop (A) and screw the air
filter (14) to the equipment.
8.4 Changing the transportation cover (B) (Fig. 9,10)
• Remove the transportation cover from the oil filter
opening (19) and insert the supplied oil sealing plug
(15) into the oil filler opening.
8.5 Mains connection
• The compressor is equipped with a mains cable with
shock-proof plug. This can be connected to any 230-
240V ~ 50 Hz shock-proof socket.
• Before you use the machine, make sure that the
mains voltage is the same as the operating voltage
(see the rating plate).

GB
• Long supply cables, extensions, cable reels etc.
cause a drop in voltage and can impede motor start-
up.
• At low temperatures below +5°C, sluggishness may
make starting difficult or impossible.
8.6 ON/OFF switch (Fig. 2)
• Pull the ON/OFF switch (16) upwards to switch on the
compressor. To switch off the compressor, press the
ON/OFF switch down.
8.7 Setting the pressure (Fig. 1,3)
• Use the pressure regulator (5) to set the pressure on
the pressure gauge (4).
• The set pressure can be drawn from the quick lock
coupling (3).
• The vessel pressure can be read off the pressure
gauge (6).
• The vessel pressure is drawn from the quick lock cou-
pling (7).
8.8 Setting the pressure switch (Fig. 1)
• The pressure switch (2) is set at the factory. Cut-in
pressure approx. 6 bar Cut-out pressure approx. 8
bar.
8.9 Overload switch (Fig. 14)
The motor is fitted with an overload switch (18). If the
compressor overloads, the overload switch switches off
the equipment automatically to protect the compressor
from overheating. If the overload switch triggers, switch
off the compressor using the ON/ OFF switch (16) and
wait until the compressor cools down. Then press the
overload switch (18) and restart the compressor.
9. Electrical connection
The electrical motor installed is connected and ready for
operation. The connection complies with the applicable
VDE and DIN provisions.
The customer's mains connection as well as the exten-
sion cable used must also comply with these regula-
tions.
• The product meets the requirements of EN 61000-
3-11 and is subject to special connection condi-
tions. This means that use of the product at any
freely selectable connection point is not allowed.
• Given unfavourable conditions in the power supply
the product can cause the voltage to fluctuate tem-
porarily.
• The product is intended solely for use at connection
points that
a) do not exceed a maximum permitted supply im-
pedance "Z" (Zmax = 0.382 Ω), or
b) have a continuous current-carrying capacity of
the mains of at least 100 A per phase.
• As the user, you are required to ensure, in consulta-
tion with your electric power company if necessary,
that the connection point at which you wish to oper-
ate the product meets one of the two requirements,
a) or b), named above.
