Cleaning The Air Filter; Disposal And Recycling - Scheppach HC550TC-230V Original Bedienungsanleitung

Do not use the compressor with a damaged or rusty
pressure vessel. If you discover any damage, then
please contact the customer service workshop.
m Important!
The condensed water from the pressure vessel will
contain residual oil. Dispose of the condensed water
in an environmentally compatible manner at a suita-
ble collection point.
15.3 Safety valve (fig. B)
The safety valve (20) has been set for the highest
permitted pressure of the pressure vessel.
It is prohibited to adjust the safety valve or re-
move its seal.
15.4 Checking the oil level at regular intervals
(Fig. F)
Place the compressor on a level and straight surface.
The oil level must be at the centre of the oil sight glass
(16) (red dot).
15.5 Changing the oil (fig. L)
The first oil filling must be changed after 100 oper-
ating hours; afterwards perform an oil change every
500 operating hours.
Switch the motor off and unplug the mains plug from
the power outlet. Remove the oil drain screw (15). Ad-
ditionally open the oil sealing plug (18).
To prevent the oil from running out in an uncontrolled
manner, hold a small metal chute under the opening
and collect the oil in a vessel. If the oil does not drain
out completely, we recommend tilting the compressor
slightly.
When the oil has drained out, re-fit the oil drain plug
(15).
Dispose of the old oil at a drop-off point for old oil.
To fill in the correct quantity of oil, make sure that the
compressor stands on an even surface. Remove the
oil sealing plug (18) and add new oil through the oil
filler opening, until the oil level in the oil sight glass
(16) has reached the correct quantity (red dot).
Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity. Overfill-
ing the equipment may result in damage.
Reinsert the oil sealing plug (18) in the oil filler open-
ing.

15.6 Cleaning the air filter

The air filter prevents dust and dirt being sucked in.
It is necessary to clean this filter at least every 300
operating hours. A blocked air filter significantly re-
duces the compressor power. Remove the air filter by
opening the wing nut (32) on the air filter housing (1).
Remove the wing nut (32) and washer (33).

Then draw out the air filter housing (1). Draw the air
filter housing (1) apart. You can now remove the air
filter. Carefully knock out the air filter and the parts of
the filter housing.
These components must then be blown out with com-
pressed air (approx. 3 bar) and reassembled in re-
verse order.
