7. Before starting the equipment
• Before you connect the equipment to the mains sup-
ply make sure that the data on the rating plate are
identical to the mains data.
• Check the equipment for damage which may have
occurred in transit. Report any damage immediately
to the transport company which was used to deliver
the compressor.
• Install the compressor near the point of consump-
tion.
• Avoid long air lines and supply lines (extension ca-
bles).
• Make sure that the intake air is dry and dustfree.
• Do not install the compressor in a damp or wet
room.
• The compressor may only be used in suitable rooms
(with good ventilation and an ambient temperature
from +5 °C to 40 °C). There must be no dust, ac-
ids, vapors, explosive gases or inflammable gases
in the room.
• The compressor is designed to be used in dry
rooms. It is prohibited to use the compressor in ar-
eas where work is conducted with sprayed water.
• The compressor may only be used outdoor briefly
when the ambient conditions are dry.
• The compressor must always be kept dry and must
not be left outdoors after work is complete.
8. Attachment and operation
n Important!
You must fully assemble the appliance before us-
ing it for the first time!
8.1 Mains connection
• The compressor can be connected to any 220 -
240-240 V~ 50 Hz shock-proof socket which is pro-
tected 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.

8.2 ON/OFF switch (fig. 1)
• To switch on the compressor, press the button (2)
on position I.
• To switch off the compressor, press the button (2)
on position 0.
8.3 Establishing connections (fig. 3, 4)
m Attention! Switch the device off for this.
When doing so, hold the coupling firmly in order to
avoid injuries due to the hose springing back.
• Connect the fitting of your compressed air tool to
the compressed air hose (5) of the compressor.
• To disconnect this coupling again, pull the quick-cou-
pling (4) back at the compressed air hose (5).
8.4 Using the tyre inflation device (fig. 6, 7, 8)
The compressed air tyre inflation device (G) is used to
inflate car tyres. With the corresponding accessories it
can also be used to inflate and regulate bicycle tyres,
inflatable dinghies, air mattresses, balls etc.
Pressure can be released by actuating the vent valve (7).
m Attention! The manometer has not been officially
calibrated! After inflating, please check the air pres-
sure with a calibrated device.
8.5 Using an air blow gun
You can also use the tyre inflation device (G) as an air
blow gun to clean out cavities and to clean soiled sur-
faces and work equipment.
To do so, please first remove the hose with the valve
adapter (8).
Now screw the blow-out adapter (D) to the tyre infla-
tion device (G).
8.6 Using the adapter set
The adapter set enables you to use the following addi-
tional capabilities of the tyre inflation device:
• Pumping up balls with the help of the ball needle (F).
• The valve adapter (E) enables bicycle tyres to be
inflated.
• Filling pools, air mattresses or boats with the help of
the additional adapter (K).
• Filling items with threaded valves (e.g. Boats) with
the screw-in valve adapter (J).
• Deflating large volume items. The deflating adapter
(C) can be used for this.
• The two conical universal adapters (A/B) can like-
wise be used for inflating air mattresses.
