• Switch the machine off and pull the mains plug.
• Pull the ring on the safety valve (6) in order to make
sure that the compressed air has escaped from the
tank, or open the drain plug of the tank in order to let
the pressure escape.
Maintenance
Fig. 6
1 After every operating day, drain the condensate from
the tank using the drain plug (10).
2 Daily check the function of the safety valve. When
checking, the tank must be at maximum pressure.
For checking the valve, set the tank under pressure and
pull the ring on the safety valve to the outside.
There should be air escaping from the valve.
At releasing the ring from the safety valve, the escaping
air must stop.
Warnings
For this test goggles must be worn. Do not hold your face
close to the safety valve as there the air escapes at a high
pressure.
Should the safety valve not work properly as described
above, immediately switch off the compressor and have
the safety valve examined by your dealer.
Do not work with the compressor when the safety valve
does not work properly, as described above.
General inspection
1 Regularly check all the fixing bolts for their tight seat.
2 Regularly check, at short intervals, the electric cable
for damages. A damaged cable must be replaced by an
electrician in order to avoid any danger.
Cleaning
1 Always keep the air inputs and outputs free and clean.
2 Regularly remove dust and dirt with a soft brush or a
soft cloth.
3 Regularly grease all moving parts.
4 When the compressor must be cleaned, wipe it with a
soft, moist cloth. A mild rinsing agent may be used, but
no alcohol, gasoline, or another cleaning agent.
5 Never use any caustic agents for cleaning plastic parts.
Attention: Water may never come into contact with the com-
pressor.
