Connection type Y
If it is necessary to replace the mains connection ca-
ble, this must be done by the manufacturer or their rep-
resentative to avoid safety hazards.
AC motor
• The mains voltage must be 230 V~.
• Extension cables up to 25 m long must have a
cross-section of 1.5 mm².
Please provide the following information in the
event of any enquiries:
• Type of current for the motor
• Machine data - type plate
• Motor data - type plate
11. Cleaning, maintenance, storage and
ordering spare parts
m Attention!
Pull out the mains plug before carrying out any clean-
ing or maintenance work! Danger of injury due to elec-
tric shocks!
m Attention!
Wait until the device has cooled down completely! Dan-
ger of burning!
m Attention!
Depressurise the device before carrying out any clean-
ing or maintenance work! Danger of injury!
11.1 Cleaning
• Keep the device as free of dust and dirt as possible.
Rub the device clean with a clean cloth or blow it off
with compressed air at low pressure.
• We recommend that you clean the device directly
after every use.
• Clean the device at regular intervals using a damp
cloth and a little soft soap. Do not use any cleaning
products or solvents; they could attack the plastic
parts of the device. Make sure that no water can
penetrate the device interior.
• The hose and injection tools must be disconnected
from the compressor before cleaning. The compres-
sor must not be cleaned with water, solvents or similar.
11.2 Maintaining the pressure vessel (fig. 1)
m Attention!
To ensure a long service life for the pressure vessel (3),
drain off the condensate after each use by opening the
drain screw (10).
Release the vessel pressure beforehand.
The drain screw (10) is opened by turning it anti-clock-
wise (when looking at the screw on the bottom of the
compressor) so that the condensate can be completely
drained out of the pressure vessel (3).
In order to drain the condensation water completely out
of the pressure vessel (3), it must be tilted slightly to
the side so that the drain screw (10) is the lowest point.
Then close the drain screw (10) again (turn it clock-
wise). Check the pressure vessel (3) for rust and dam-
age each time before use.
The compressor shall not be operated if the pressure
vessel (3) is damaged or rusty. If you discover damage,
please contact the customer service workshop.
The condensate from the pressure vessel may contain
oil residue. Dispose of the condensate in an environ-
mentally-friendly way at the appropriate collection
point.
11.3 Safety valve (Fig. 4)
The safety valve (4) is set to the maximum permissible
pressure of the pressure vessel (3). It is not permitted
to adjust the safety valve (4) or to remove it.
Actuate the safety valve (4) every 30 operating hours
but at least 3 times a year to ensure that it works when
required.
Turn the drain nut (4.1) anti-clockwise to open the safe-
ty valve (4) drain.
The safety valve (4) now audibly lets out air. Then turn
the drain nut (4.1) clockwise again to tighten.
11.4 Storage
m Attention!
Disconnect the mains plug, vent the device and all
connected compressed air tools. Store the com-
pressor in such a way that it cannot be used by
unauthorised persons.
m Attention!
Store the compressor only in dry locations that are
inaccessible for unauthorised persons. Do not tilt
the unit, only store it upright!
11.4.1 Releasing excess pressure
Release overpressure in the compressor by switching
off the compressor and using up the compressed air
still in the pressure vessel (3), e.g. with a compressed
air tool running at idle or with an air blow gun.
