General safety instructions
Important! The following basic safety precautions have to be taken when using this compressor in order to guard against the risk of electric shock, injury and fire. Read and note these instructions before you use the compressor.
-
Keep your work area tidy
- There is a higher risk of accident in an untidy work area.
-
Make allowance for environmental conditions
- Never leave the compressor in the rain. Never use the compressor in damp or wet conditions.
Provide good lighting. Never use the compressor near combustible liquids or gases.
- Never leave the compressor in the rain. Never use the compressor in damp or wet conditions.
-
Protect yourself from electric shocks
- Avoid physical contact with earthed parts, e.g. pipes, radiators, cookers, refrigerators.
-
Keep children away!

Replacing the power cable
To prevent injury, damaged power cables may only be replaced by the manufacturer or a qualified electrician.
Safety instructions for working with copressed air and blasting guns
- Compressors and lines reach high temperatures during operation. Avoid contact! Risk of burns!
- Gases or vapours drawn in by the compressor have to be kept free of constituents that may cause fire or explosions inside the compressor.
- When you disconnect the hose coupling, hold the coupling element in your hand to prevent injury from the whiplashing hose.
- Wear goggles when working with the blow-out gun. Injuries may easily result from foreign bodies and blasted parts.
- Never point the blow-out gun at other persons and never use it to clean clothes that are still being worn.
Safety information for paint spraying
-
Never process paints or solvents with a flash point below 55°C.
-
Never heat paints or solvents.
-
It is imperative to use filtering equipment (face masks) when processing harmful liquids. Note also the information concerning safety precautions published by the manufacturers of these liquids.
-
Smoking is prohibited during the spraying operation and in the work room. Paint vapours are highly flammable.
-
Make sure there are no open fires or open lights in the work room. Sparking machines are not to be used.
-
Do not keep or consume food and drink in the work room. Paint vapours are harmful.
-
The details and designations of the Ordinance on Hazardous Substances, which are displayed on the outer packaging of the processed material, must be observed. Additional protective measures are to be undertaken if necessary, particularly the wearing of suitable clothing and masks.
-
The work room has to be bigger than 30 m3 and have sufficient ventilation for spraying and drying. Never spray into the wind.
It is always imperative to observe the regulations of your local police authorities when spraying combustible or hazardous substances. -
Never process media such as white petroleum spirit, butyl alcohol and methylene chloride with the PVC pressure hose (reduced life span).
Operating pressure vessels
- n operator of a pressure vessel is required to keep the pressure vessel in good working order, to operate it properly, to supervise its use, to carry out essential maintenance and repair work immediately, and to introduce essential safety measures according to requirements.
- The supervisory authorities may order essential safeguards from case to case.
- A pressure vessel may not be operated if it has any defects which constitute a danger to employees or third parties.
- The pressure vessel must be regularly inspected for damage, e.g. rust. If you discover any damage, then please contact the customer service workshop.
Keep these safety instructions in a safe place.

Scope of use
The compressor is designed for generating compressed air for tools operated by compressed air.
Please note that our equipment has not been designed for use in commercial, trade or industrial applications. Our warranty will be voided if the machine is used in commercial, trade or industrial businesses or for equivalent purposes.
The machine is to be used only for its prescribed purpose. Any other use is deemed to be a case of misuse. The user / operator and not the manufacturer will be liable for any damage or injuries of any kind caused as a result of this.

Points to note when setting up the compressor
- Examine the machine for signs of transit damage. Report any damage immediately to the company which delivered the compressor.
- The compressor should be set up near the working consumer.
- Avoid long air lines and long supply lines (extensions).
- Make sure the intake air is dry and dust-free.
- Do not set up the compressor in damp or wet rooms.
- The compressor may only be used in suitable rooms (with good ventilation and an ambient temperature from +5°C to +40°C). There must be no dust, acids, vapors, explosive gases or inflammable 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.
Assembly and starting
Important!
You must fully assemble the appliance before using it for the first time.
Fitting the wheels (3)
Fit the supplied wheels as shown in Fig. 3.
Fitting the supporting foot (4)
Fit the supplied rubber stopper as shown in Fig. 4.
Voltage
The compressor is equipped with a mains cable with shock-proof plug. This can be connected to any 230V ~ 50Hz shock-proof socket which is protected by a 16 A fuse. Before you use the machine, make sure that the mains voltage complies with the specifications on the rating plate. Long supply cables, extensions, cable reels etc. cause a drop in voltage and can impede motor start-up. In the case of low temperatures below +5°C, motor start-up is jeopardized as a result of stiffness.
On/Off switch (8)
To switch on the equipment set the On/Off switch (8) to position 1.
Move the On/Off switch (8) to position 0 to switch off the equipment.
Adjusting the pressure: (Fig. 1)
- You can adjust the pressure on the pressure gauge (6) using the pressure regulator (7).
- The set pressure can be taken from the quicklock coupling (5).
Setting the pressure switch
The pressure switch is set at the factory.
Switch-on pressure 6 bar
Switch-off pressure 8 bar
Cleaning and maintenance
Important!
Pull the power plug before doing any cleaning and maintenance work on the
appliance.
Important!
Wait until the compressor has completely cooled down. Risk of burns!
Important!
Always depressurize the tank before carrying out any cleaning and
maintenance work.
Cleaning
- Keep the safety devices free of dirt and dust as far as possible. Wipe the equipment with a clean cloth or blow it with compressed air at low pressure.
- e recommend that you clean the appliance immediately after you use it.
- Clean the appliance regularly with a damp cloth and some soft soap. Do not use cleaning agents or solvents; these may be aggressive to the plastic parts in the appliance. Ensure that no water can get into the interior of the appliance.
- You must disconnect the hose and any spraying tools from the compressor before cleaning. Do not clean the compressor with water, solvents or the like.
Condensation water
The condensation water must be drained off each day by opening the drain valve (11) (on the floor of the pressure vessel).
Important! The condensation water from the pressure vessel will contain
residual oil.
Dispose of the condensation water in an environmentally compatible manner
at the appropriate collection point.
Safety valve (10)
The safety valve has been set for the highest permitted pressure of the pressure vessel. It is prohibited to adjust the safety valve or remove its seal. Actuate the safety valve from time to time to ensure that it works when required. Pull the ring with sufficient force until you can hear the compressed air being released. Then release the ring again.
Storage
Important!
Pull the mains plug out of the socket and ventilate the appliance and all
connected pneumatic tools. Switch off the compressor and make sure that it is
secured in such a way that it cannot be started up again by any unauthorized
person.
Important!
Store the compressor only in a dry location which is not accessible to
unauthorized persons.
Always store upright, never tilted!
