8.5 Checking the oil level (Figure 6)
m Warning: For the first use, check the oil level
of the compressor.
1. Operating the machine without oil will cause irrep-
arable damage and render the warranty invalid.
2. Remove the plastic oil inlet plug on top of the
crank box of the compressor casing.
3. Fill the device with sufficient oil (included in con-
tent of delivery / see fig. 7)
4. Check the oil level in the sight glass (17). The oil
level should be in the centre of the red circle. (see
fig. 6 pos. 17.1)
5. Attach the closing plug (12), which is included and
pull it tight.
8.6 Mains connection
• The compressor is equipped with a mains cable
with shock-proof plug. This can be connected to
any 230`- 230 V~ 50 Hz shock-proof socket which
is protected by a 16 A fuse.
• Before you use the machine, make sure that the
mains voltage is the same as the operating voltage
(see the rating plate).
• 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.
8.7 ON/OFF switch (Fig. 3 Pos. 16)
• Pull the ON/OFF switch (17) upwards to switch
on the compressor. To switch off the compressor,
press the ON/OFF switch (17) down.
8.8 Setting the pressure (Fig. 3)
• Use the pressure regulator (3) to set the pressure
on the pressure gauge (5).
• The set pressure can be drawn from the quicklock
coupling (Fig. 3/Pos. 4).
8.9 Setting the pressure switch
• The pressure switch (2) is set at the factory.
Cut-in pressure approx. 8 bar
Cut-out pressure approx. 10 bar.
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 extension cable used must also comply with
these regulations.
When working with spray attachments and during
temporary use outdoors, the device must be connect-
ed to a residual current circuit breaker with a trigger
current of 30 mA or less.

Damaged electrical connection cable
The insulation on electrical connection cables is of-
ten damaged.
This may have the following causes:
• Passage points, where connection cables are
passed through windows or doors.
• Kinks where the connection cable has been im-
properly fastened or routed.
• Places where the connection cables have been cut
due to being driven over.
• Insulation damage due to being ripped out of the
wall outlet.
• Cracks due to the insulation ageing.
Such damaged electrical connection cables must not
be used and are life-threatening due to the insulation
damage.
Check the electrical connection cables for damage
regularly. Make sure that the connection cable does
not hang on the power network during the inspection.
Electrical connection cables must comply with the
applicable VDE and DIN provisions. Only use con-
nection cables with the marking „H05VV-F".
The printing of the type designation on the connec-
tion cable is mandatory.
AC motor
• The mains voltage must be 230 V~
• Extension cables up to 25 m long must have a
cross-section of 1.5 mm
.
