7. Before starting the equipment

• Before you connect the equipment to the mains
supply 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 consumption.
• 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 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
using it for the first time!

8.1 Mains connection

• The compressor is equipped with a mains cable
with shock-proof plug. This can be connected to
any 230-240 V~ 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.
8.2 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 Setting the pressure (Fig. 1)
• Use the pressure regulator (8) to set the pressure
on the pressure gauge (7).
• The set pressure can be drawn from the quicklock
coupling (6).
• The vessel pressure can be read off the pressure
gauge (4).

8.4 Setting the pressure switch

• The pressure switch is set at the factory.
Cut-in pressure approx. 6 bar.
Cut-out pressure approx. 8 bar.
m Important!
The accessories used must be adapted to the
maximum allowable pressure of the mobile com-
pressor. Use pressure hoses with safety cable
(eg wire rope)

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 extension cable used must also comply with
these regulations.
When working with spray attachments and during
temporary use outdoors, the device must be connect-
ed to a residual current circuit breaker with a trigger
current of 30 mA or less.
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
