● Cleaning the intake filter
The intake filter prevents dust
and dirt being drawn into the
machine. This filter has to be
cleaned at intervals of no
longer than 300 operating
hours. A clogged intake filter
has a considerable negative
effect on the compressor's
power.
The filter can be removed as
shown in Figure 3. Wash out
the filter with petroleum ether
and reinsert.
Caution! Wait until the
compressor has cooled
completely!
Risk of burns!
