Connecting pressure equipment to the compressed air supply

The pressure equipment is connected to a compressed air cartridge (included in the scope of delivery).

The admissible working pressure of the pressure equipment is 10 bar. If the admissible operating pressure is exceeded, the dial on the pressure gauge (6.) for the operating pressure moves into the red range.

This can occur under the following conditions:

If both safety valves are defective and
- you have connected the pressure equipment to an unsuitable compressed air cartridge.

WARNING

Risk of explosion if the maximum operating pressure is exceeded.

If this happens, immediately disconnect the compressed air supply from the pressure equipment.

Attach compressed air cartridge

• Screw the stoppers (8.) out of the connecting threads for the compressed-air cartridge.

Screw the seal cap (10.) off the compressed-air cartridge.

• Check the fitting and the connecting thread for the compressed air cartridge for foreign matter and soiling.
  Clean the fitting and connecting thread, if necessary.
  Check the condition of the pressure equipment (see page 14).

WARNING

Operating with unsuitable compressed air cartridges can cause damage on the pressure equipment.

Operate the pressure equipment only with type KT-3500 compressed air cartridges.

Screw the compressed air cartridge hand-tight into the thread of fitting (8).

The pressure gauge (9.) on the fitting for the compressed air cartridge now shows the pressure currently prevailing in the cartridge. The pressure equipment is ready for operation when the pointer of the pressure gauge (9.) is in the green part of the scale.

The pressure gauge (6.) for the operating pressure displays the current operating pressure.

If you use an unsuitable compressed air cartridge and if both safety valves are defective, the pressure in this cartridge can exceed the maximum admissible operating pressure of the pressure equipment. In this case the pointer of the pressure gauge (6.) indicates an operating pressure of more than 10 bar.

WARNING Risk of explosion if the maximum operating pressure is exceeded.

• Immediately disconnect the compressed air cartridge from the pressure equipment.

When the pointer of the pressure gauge (9.) on the fitting for the compressed air cartridge is in the red zone of the scale, the pressure in the compressed air cartridge is no longer sufficient to operate the pressure equipment.

In this case replace the compressed air cartridge with a full compressed air cartridge.
You can refill the compressed air cartridge using the PKT-FILLMASTER 350 compressor, which is available as an accessory. You can also purchase a full compressed air cartridge in exchange for an empty cartridge from your dealer.

Using the pressure equipment

You can operate the pressure equipment in the carrier bag directly on your body. That facilitates efficient and effective operation of pressure equipment independent of a stationary source of compressed air.

Operation with the controller mount

To transport the pressure equipment over long distances, proceed as follows:

• Place the transport case in a horizontal position with the lid facing upwards. Open the transport case and the latch for the lid.

  You can now run various compressed air tools on the compressed air hose (17.) quick coupler.

Please carefully read the manual of the involved accessory for technical attributes and the instructions for correct use.

Controlling operating pressure

You can control the operating pressure on the operating pressure controller (4.).

i Set the operating pressure such that the operating pressure desired for the application is just obtained. This offers the following advantages:

• You save energy (compressed air),
• You reduce the noise level, and
• You reduce the wear on the accessory unit.

To adjust the operating pressure, proceed as follows:

• Hold the pressure equipment so that you can easily read the pressure gauge (6.) for the operating pressure.
• Pull the operating pressure controller (4) up and away from the pressure gauge.
• Turn the operating pressure controller until the pressure gauge dial (6.) stands at about 5 bar:

The average operating pressure is now set.

Adjust the desired operating pressure as below:

To increase the operating pressure, turn the operating pressure controller (4.) clockwise.
To decrease the operating pressure, turn the operating pressure controller (4.) anticlockwise.

A quarter turn of the operating pressure controller changes the operating pressure by roughly 0.5 bar.

• While doing so, observe the indicator on the pressure gauge for the operating pressure (6).
• Push the operating pressure controller (4.) towards the pressure gauge.
• Check the operating pressure controller in the corresponding accessory manual.
  Repeat these steps until the desired operating pressure is set.
