10.2 Maintenance work on the pressure vessel
(fig. 3)
m Important! To ensure a long service life of the
pressure vessel (2), drain off the condensed water
by opening the drain valve (1) each time after us-
ing.
Release the vessel pressure first (see 10.3.1).
Open the drain screw by turning counter-clockwise
(looking at the screw from the bottom of the compres-
sor) so that all the condensed water can run out of the
pressure vessel. Then close the drain screw again
(turn it clockwise). Check the pressure vessel for signs
of rust and damage each time before using. Do not use
the compressor with a damaged or rusty pressure ves-
sel. If you discover any damage, then please contact
the customer service workshop.
10.3 Storage
m Important!
Pull out the mains plug and ventilate the equip-
ment and all connected pneumatic tools. Switch
off the compressor and make sure that it is se-
cured in such a way that it cannot be started up
again by any unauthorised person.
m Important!
Store the compressor only in a dry location which
is not accessible to unauthorised persons. Always
store upright, never tilted!
10.3.1 Releasing excess pressure
Release the excess pressure by switching off the com-
pressor and using the compressed air which is still left
in the pressure vessel, e.g. with a compressed air tool
running in idle mode or with a blow-out pistol.
10.4 Safety valve (fig. 1, 7)
The safety valve (3) has been set for the highest permit-
ted pressure of the pressure vessel. It is not permitted
to adjust the safety valve or remove the connection lock
(3.2) between the exhaust nut (3.1) and its cap (3.3).
Actuate the safety valve every 30 operating hours but
at least 3 times a year, to ensure that it works when
required. Turn the perforated exhaust nut (3.1) coun-
terclockwise to open it and use your hands to pull the
valve rod outwards over the perforated exhaust nut
(3.1) to open the safety valve outlet. Now, the valve
audibly releases air. Then, tighten the exhaust nut
clockwise again.
