for each type of application (inflation, airpowered
tools, painting, washing with water-based deter-
gents only, clinching, etc.).
When using compressed air, you must know and
comply with the safety precautions to be adopted
for each type of application (inflation, airpowered
tools, painting, washing with water-based deter-
gents only, clinching, etc.).
Caution! Never switch the compressor on or off using
the plug. Pressure switch to be pressed at all times.
Do not leave the compressor on over night as it could
become a source of danger.
At the end of your working day, switch the appliance
off, release the air jet and unplug the compressor.
Warning: if the water that condenses is not drained,
it may corrode the receiver, reducing its capacity and
impairing safety.
As it is a contaminating product, condensate must be
DISPOSED of in accordance with laws on protection
of the environment and current legislation.
Never leave the appliance exposed to adverse wea-
ther conditions (rain, sun, fog, snow).
If this compressor is used outdoors, always remem-
ber to stow it after use in a covered or closed place.
Never use the compressor outdoors in rain or bad

The compressor must not be fitted in a vehicle for
industrial purposes without an inspection by an
expert!
If the compressor is used for industrial purposes, it
must be checked by an expert before putting into
operation for the first time. Such check must be orde-
red by the operator (under BetrSichV Section 17 No.
25 – operation safety regulation)
Caution! When fitted in automatic equipment, it is
necessary to install appropriate alarm or warning
devices in case of power outage or malfunction or
compressor (e.g. feed line, etc.) failure.
Keep unused machinery and tools safely in a dry
place out of the reach of children.
Operation of compressed air tools
To guarantee perfect and reliable operation of
the rotary and percussive pneumatic tools such as
impact wrenches, staplers or nailers, etc., the com-
pressed air must be supplied filtered - with oil via the
lubricator or maintenance unit
A filtered water separator should be used for var-
nishing in any case.
To select a suitable pneumatic tool, the tool air
consumption and the compressor effective amount
delivered must necessarily be considered.

found at www.guede.com)
Operation at lower temperatures
At lower temperatures, below 5°C, problems may
be experienced when starting. They are manifested
by growling of the electric motor. In such a case, the
