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 immedi-
ately 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
•
cables).
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 tem-
perature from +5 °C to 40 °C). There must be no
dust, acids, vapors, explosive gases or inflamma-
ble gases in the room.
The compressor is designed to be used in dry
•
rooms. It is prohibited to use the compressor in
areas where work is conducted with sprayed water.

8. Attachment and operation

m Important!
You must fully assemble the appliance before
using it for the first time!
You will require the following tools for assembly
and installation:
2 x open-ended wrench size 14 mm (not included)
8.1 Fitting the wheels (fig. 6,7)
Screw on each wheel (3) one washer (C) and one
•
nut (B) on to the threads of the wheels.
Then mount the wheels (3) on the wheel holders,
•
at the bottom of the pressure vessel (2), by using
a wrench to fix the nut (B), washer (C) and flange
nuts (D) on the other side of the thread.
8.2 Fitting the supporting foot (fig. 5)
Mount the enclosed supporting foot (4) with the
•
two hex bolts (A), the two washers (C) and two
flange nuts (D), as shown in Figure 5.

8.3 Mains connection

The compressor is equipped with a mains cable
•
with shock-proof plug. This can be connected to
any 230V~ / 50 Hz shock-proof socket which is
protected 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.
8.4 ON/OFF switch (fig. 2)
To switch on the compressor, press the button (8)
•
on position I.
To switch off the compressor, press the button (8)
•
on position 0.
8.5 Setting the pressure (fig. 2)
You can adjust the pressure on the pressure gauge
•
(6) using the pressure regulator (7).
The set pressure can be taken from the quick lock
•
coupling (5).

8.6 Setting the pressure switch

The pressure switch is set at the factory.
•
Cut-in pressure approx. 8 bar.
Cut-out pressure approx. 10 bar.

9. Electrical connection

The electrical motor installed is connected and
ready for operation. The connection complies
with the applicable VDE and DIN provisions. The
customer's mains connection as well as the ex-
tension cable used must also comply with these
regulations.
Damaged electrical connection cable
The insulation on electrical connection cables is of-
ten damaged.
This may have the following causes:
Passage points, where connection cables are
•
passed through windows or doors.
Kinks where the connection cable has been im-
•
properly fastened or routed.
Places where the connection cables have been cut
•
due to being driven over.
Insulation damage due to being ripped out of the
•
wall outlet.
• Cracks due to the insulation ageing.
Such damaged electrical connection cables must not
be used and are life-threatening due to the insula-
tion damage.
Check the electrical connection cables for damage
regularly. Make sure that the connection cable does
not hang on the power network during the inspection.
Electrical connection cables must comply with the
applicable VDE and DIN provisions. Only use con-
nection cables with the marking „H05VV-F".
The printing of the type designation on the connec-
tion cable is mandatory.
AC motor
The mains voltage must be 230 V~
•
Extension cables up to 25 m long must have a
•
cross-section of 1.5 mm .
