19. Inflating tyres
- Check the tyre pressure immediately after filling
using a suitable pressure gauge, e.g. at a petrol
station.
20. Street-legal compressors in construction site op-
eration
- Ensure that all hoses and fixtures are suitable for
the maximum permissible working pressure of the
compressor.
21. SeT-uP location
- Only set up the compressor on a flat surface.
22. It is recommended to equip the feed hoses with a
safety cable in case of pressure above 7 bar, e.g.
using a wire cable.
23. Avoid over-stressing the piping system by using
flexible hose connections to prevent kinking.
24. Make sure that the oil cooling devices are kept
clean and that the protective devices are kept in
good operating condition.
25. Risk of burns from hot oil
- Wear suitable protective gloves.
- Never work with the compressor near naked
flames.
- Be careful not to spill oil.
26. Starting the motor is forbidden if the temperature
is below 0°C.
27. Warning: Clogged oil filters or valve failure lead to
lack of lubrication.
m WARNING! This power tool generates an elec-
tromagnetic field during operation. This field can im-
pair active or passive medical implants under certain
circumstances. In order to prevent the risk of serious
or deadly injuries, we recommend that persons with
medical implants consult with their physician and the
manufacturer of the medical implant prior to operating
the power tool.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Observe the corresponding operating manuals of
the respective compressed air tools / compressed
air attachments! The following general instructions
must also be observed:
Safety instructions for working with compressed
air and air blow guns
• Ensure there is sufficient distance to the product, at
least 2.50 m, and keep the compressed air tools /
compressed air attachments away from the com-
pressor during operation.
• Compressor pump and lines reach high temperatures
during operation. Touching them will cause burns.
• The air which is sucked in by the compressor must
be kept free of impurities that could cause fires or
explosions in the compressor pump.
• When disconnecting the hose coupling, hold the
coupling piece of the hose firmly with your hand.
• This will ensure that you avoid injuries caused by the
hose recoiling.
• Wear safety goggles and a respirator when working
with the compressed air pistol. Dusts are harmful to
health! Foreign objects or blown off parts can easily
cause injuries.
• Do not blow on people or clean clothing whilst on the
body with the air blow gun. Danger of injury!
Safety instructions when using spraying attach-
ments (e.g. paint sprayers)
• Keep the spray attachment away from the compres-
sor when filling so that no liquid comes into contact
with the compressor.
• Never spray in the direction of the compressor when
using the spraying attachments (e.g. paint sprayers).
Moisture can lead to electrical hazards!
• Do not process any paints or solvents with a flash
point below 55° C. Risk of explosion!
• Do not heat up paints or solvents. Risk of explosion!
• If harmful liquids are processed, filter devices (face
masks) are required for protection. Also observe the
information on protective measures provided by the
manufacturers of such substances.
• The information and labelling of the hazardous sub-
stances ordinance affixed to the outer packaging of
the processed materials must be observed. If neces-
sary, take additional protective measures, in particu-
lar wear suitable clothing and masks.
• Do not smoke during the spraying process or in the
working area. Risk of explosion! Paint vapours are
also highly flammable.
• Fireplaces, naked flames lights or sparking machin-
ery must not be present or operated.
• Do not store or consume food or drinks in the work
area. Paint fumes are harmful to health.
• The working area must be larger than 30 m³ and suf-
ficient air exchange must be ensured during spray-
ing and drying.
• Do not spray into the wind. Always observe the reg-
ulations of the local police authorities when spraying
flammable or hazardous spraying materials.
• Do not use media such as white spirit, butyl alcohol
and methylene chloride in conjunction with the PVC
