• Open the packaging and remove the device carefully.

• Remove the packaging material as well as the pack- aging and transport bracing (if available).

• Check that the delivery is complete.

• Check the device and accessory parts for transport damage.

• If possible, store the packaging until the warranty pe- riod has expired. m ATTENTION! The device and packaging materials are not toys! Children must not be allowed to play with plastic bags, lm and small parts! There is a risk of swal- lowing and suffocation! Intended use The compressor is designed to generate compressed air for compressed-air driven tools which can be driven with an air volume of up to approx. 180 l/min (e.g. tire in ator, blow-out pistol and paint spray gun). Due to the limited air output it is not possible to use the com- pressor to drive tools with very high air consumption (for example orbital sanders, rod grinders and hammer screwdrivers). The equipment is to be used only for its prescribed pur- pose. Any other use is deemed to be a case of misuse. The user / operator and not the manufacturer will be li- able for any damage or injuries of any kind caused as a result of this. Please note that our equipment has not been designed for use in commercial, trade or industrial applications. Our warranty will be voided if the equipment is used in commercial, trade or industrial businesses or for equiv- alent purposes.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

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 res or explosions in the compressor pump.

• When releasing the hose coupling, hold the hose cou- pling 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 ash 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 lter units (face guards). Also, adhere to the safety information provided by the manufacturers of such liquids.

• 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 cloth- ing and masks.

• Do not smoke during the spraying process and/or in the work area. There is a risk of explosion! Paint va- pors are easily combustible.16 GB inatable dinghies, air mattresses, balls etc. Pressure can be released by actuating the vent valve (7). m Attention! The manometer has not been ofcially calibrated! After inating, please check the air pressure with a calibrated device. Using an air blow gun You can also use the tyre ination device (G) as an air blow gun to clean out cavities and to clean soiled sur- faces and work equipment. To do so, please rst remove the hose with the valve adapter (8). Now screw the blow-out adapter (D) to the tyre ination device (G). Using the adapter set The adapter set enables you to use the following addi- tional capabilities of the tyre ination device:

• Pumping up balls with the help of the ball needle (F).

• The valve adapter (E) enables bicycle tyres to be in- ated.

• Filling pools, air mattresses or boats with the help of the additional adapter (K).

• Filling items with threaded valves (e.g. Boats) with the screw-in valve adapter (J).

• Deating large volume items. The deating adapter (C) can be used for this.

• The two conical universal adapters (A/B) can likewise be used for inating air mattresses. 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. Damaged electrical connection cable The insulation on electrical connection cables is often 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 improp- erly 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 insulation damage. Check the electrical connection cables for damage reg- ularly. Make sure that the connection cable does not hang on the power network during the inspection. Electrical connection cables must comply with the ap- plicable VDE and DIN provisions. Only use connection cables with the marking „H05VV-F“. 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 immediately 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 ca- bles).

• 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 temperature from +5 °C to 40 °C). There must be no dust, acids, vapors, explosive gases or inammable 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. Attachment and operation n Important! You must fully assemble the appliance before using it for the rst time! Mains connection

• The compressor can be connected to any 220 - 240- 240 V~ 50 Hz shock-proof socket which is protected by a 16 A fuse.

• Long supply cables, extensions, cable reels etc. cause a drop in voltage and can impede motor start-up.

• To switch off the compressor, press the button (2) on position 0. Establishing connections (g. 2-4) m Attention! Switch the device off for this. When doing so, hold the coupling rmly in order to avoid injuries due to the hose springing back.

• First connect the air hose (5) with the quick coupling of your compressor.

• Connect the tting of your compressed air tool to the compressed air hose (5) of the compressor.

• To disconnect this coupling again, pull the quick-cou- pling (4) back at the compressed air hose (5). Using the tyre ination device (g. 6, 7, 8) The compressed air tyre ination device (G) is used to inate car tyres. With the corresponding accessories it can also be used to inate and regulate bicycle tyres,17GB m Important! Store the compressor only in a dry location which is not accessible to unauthorized persons. Always store upright, never tilted! Storage power cord, hose and accessories (Fig. 2)

• The power cord can be stored sideways of the com- pressor.
