MAINTENANCE

A T T EN T I ON

Bevor maintenance:

  • Switch off and disconnect from the power supply!
  • Let cool down the air compressor!
  • Depressurize the air tank

The machine does not require intense maintenance. However, to ensure a long lifespan, we strongly recommend following the upkeep and maintenance plan. Repairs must be carried out by specialists! Use original ZIPPER parts only!

N O T I C E

Only a properly maintained equipment may be a satisfactory tool. Care and maintenance deficiencies can cause unpredictable accidents and injuries.
Repairs should be performed only by authorized service centers.
Improper operation may damage the equipment or endanger your safety.

Cleaning

Keep the safety devices free of dirt and dust as far as possible. Wipe the machine with a clean cloth or blow it with compressed air at low pressure.

N O T I C E

Do not use cleaning agents or solvents; these could attack the plastic parts of the machine!

Put on all coatless flats a thin coat of oil.

Maintenance plan

Controls for the maintenance of the machine

Loose or lost screws, nuts, bolts| Regularly prior to each operation
Damage of any part of the machine| Regularly prior to each operation
Oil level| Regularly prior to each operation
Machine cleaning| Regularly after operation
Air filter cleaning| Every 20-30 working hours
Oil changing| Every 250 working hours

Air filter cleaning

The intake filter prevents dust and dirt being drawn in. It is essential to clean this filter. A clogged intake filter will decrease the compressor‘s performance dramatically. Open the air filter housing and remove the air filter. Use compressed air at low pressure (approx. 3 bar) to blow out all the parts of the filter and then assemble the filter in reverse order.

Condensation water

To ensure a long service life of the pressure vessel, drain off the condensed water by opening the drain cock each time after using.

The condensation water from the pressure vessel will contain residual oil. Dispose of the condensation water in an environmentally compatible manner

Storage

If the machine is stored for longer than 30 days:

  • Let the machine cool down
  • Clean the machine and dry
  • Depressurize the air tank.
  • Store in a dry, out of reach of children place, well packaged (protection against cuts)

Disposal

Do not dispose the machine, machine components fuel and oil in residual waste. Contact your local authorities for information regarding the available disposal options. When you buy at your local dealer for a replacement unit, the latter is obliged to exchange your old.
