Roadworthy compressors for building site operations
Make sure that all lines and fittings are suitable for the maximum permissible operating pressure of the compressor.
Place of installation
Set up the compressor on an even surface.
Safety instructions for working with compressed air and blasting guns
- The compressor pump and lines can become very hot during operation. Touching these parts will burn you.
The air which is sucked in by the compressor must be kept free of impurities that could cause fires or explosions in the compressor pump. - When releasing the hose coupling, hold the hose coupling piece with your hand. This way, you can protect yourself against injury from the rebounding hose.
- Wear safety goggles when working with the blow-out pistol. Foreign bodies or blown off parts can easily cause injuries.
- Do not blow at people with the blow-out pistol and do not clean clothes while being worn.
Risk of injury!
Safety information for paint spraying
- Do not process any paints or solvents with a flash point below 55^ C. There is a risk of explosion!
- Do not heat up paints or solvents. There is a risk of explosion!
If hazardous liquids are processed, wear protective filter units (face guards). Also, adhere to the safety information provided by the manufacturers of such liquids.
The details and designations of the Ordnance 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. - Do not smoke during the spraying process and/or in the work area. There is a risk of explosion! Paint vapors are easily combustible.
- Never set up or operate the equipment in the vicinity of a fire place, open lights or sparking machines.
- Do not store or eat food and drink in the work area. Paint vapors are harmful to your health.
The work area must exceed 30 m and sufficient ventilation must be ensured during spraying and drying. Do not spray against the wind. Always adhere to the regulations of the local police authority when spraying combustible or hazardous materials. - Do not process media such as white spirit, butyl alcohol and methylene chloride with the PVC pressure hose. These media will destroy the pressure hose.

5. Before starting the equipment
Before you connect the equipment to the power supply make sure that the data on the rating plate are identical to the supply voltage.
- Check the equipment for damage which may have occurred in transit. Report any damage immediately to the transport company which was used to deliver the compressor.
Install the compressor in the vicinity of the point of consumption. - Avoid long air lines and supply lines (extension cables).
Make sure that the intake air is dry and dust-free. - 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 temperature from +5^ to 40^ ). There must
GB
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.
- Operate the equipment only on a firm, level surface.
During operation place the compressor on the rubber feet on the compressor rear wheel.
- Important! When you switch off the compressor, excess air will escape at the safety valve. This is not a fault, but arises in connection with the equipment's construction.
6. Assembly and starting
6.1. Power supply
Before you use the machine, make sure that the mains voltage complies with the specifi cations on 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^ , sluggishness may make starting diffic cult or impossible.
6.2 On/Off switch (4)
To switch on the equipment set the On/Off switch (4) to position 1.
Move the On/Off switch (4) to position 0 to switch off the equipment.
6.3 Compressed air hose with quick-lock coupling (3)
Connecting:
Insert the nipple of the air tool into the quick-lock coupling, the sleeve will spring forward automatically.
Disconnecting:
Pull back the sleeve and remove the tool.
Danger! When releasing the quick-lock coupling, be sure to hold the coupling piece to protect yourself against injury from the rebounding hose.
6.4 Tire pressure gauge with adapters (Fig. 2)
Working pressure in bar: 0-10
Range of applications:
You can use the tyre pressure gauge to inflate tyres. Adapters are included for other valve types. Use the pressure gauge to check the tyre pressure. Press the n + n pushbutton to increase the tyre pressure or the - , pushbutton to decrease the tyre pressure.
Do not exceed the maximum operating pressure of 10 bar (also indicated on the back of the tyre gauge).
Hazard! After inflating, please check the set tyre pressure with a calibrated gauge, for example at a petrol station.
Hazard! Never direct the flow of compressed air at yourself or at any other persons or animals! Caution! Inflating items above the recommended pressure can damage the items or cause injury to persons nearby!
After filling with air, please check the set tire pressure with a calibrated gauge, for example at a petrol station.
The tire pressure gauge comes with a valve adaptor for car tire valves. Other valve types can be filled using the supplied adapters (a - c).
7. Cleaning, maintenance and ordering of spare parts
Danger!
Pull the power plug before doing any cleaning and maintenance work on the appliance.
Danger!
Wait until the compressor has completely cooled down. Risk of burns!
Danger!
After use, always switch off the equipment immediately and pull out the power plug.
7.1 Cleaning
- Keep all safety devices, air vents and the motor housing 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.
We recommend that you clean the device
GB
immediately each time you have finished using it.
Clean the equipment regularly with a moist cloth and some soft soap. Do not use cleaning agents or solvents; these could attack the plastic parts of the equipment. Ensure that no water can seep into the device. The ingress of water into an electric tool increases the risk of an electric shock.
- 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.
7.2 Storage
Danger!
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.
Danger!
