• The drain screw (21) is opened by turning it anti-clockwise (when looking at the screw on the bottom of the compressor) so that the condensate can be completely drained out of the pressure vessel (12).
• Then close the drain screw (21) again (turn clockwise).
• Check the pressure vessel (12) for rust and damage each time before use.
• The compressor shall not be operated if the pressure vessel (12) is damaged or rusty. If you discover damage, please contact the customer service workshop.

⚠ Attention!

The condensate from the pressure vessel contains oil residue. Dispose of the condensate in an environmentally friendly manner at a suitable collection point.

16.3 Safety valve (Fig. 2)

• The safety valve (20) is set to the maximum permissible pressure of the pressure vessel.
• It is not permitted to adjust the safety valve or to remove the connection lock (20.2) between the drain nut (20.1) and its cap (20.3).
• In order for the safety valve to function properly when needed, it must be actuated every 30 operating hours and at least 3 times a year.
• Turn the perforated drain nut (20.1) anti-clockwise to open it, then pull the valve stem outwards by hand via the perforated drain nut (20.1) to open the safety valve outlet.
• Now, the valve audibly releases air.
• Then turn the drain nut clockwise again to tighten.

16.4 Check the oil level at regular intervals (Fig. 12)

- Place the compressor on a level, even surface.

- The oil level must be at the centre of the oil sight glass (16) (red dot).

16.5 Oil change (Fig. 12)

The original oil filling must be changed after 10 operating hours; afterwards the oil must be drained and replaced with new oil after every 50 operating hours.

16.5.1 Draining oil

1. Switch the motor off and unplug the mains plug from the power outlet.

2. Remove the oil drain screw (15).

3. Additionally open the oil plug (18).
4. To prevent the oil from running out in an uncontrolled manner, hold a small metal chute under the opening and collect the oil in a vessel. If the oil does not drain out completely, we recommend tilting the compressor slightly.
5. Once the oil has fully drained out, replace the oil drain screw (15).
6. Dispose of the old oil at a drop-off point for old oil.

16.5.2 Filling in oil

1. To fill in the correct quantity of oil, make sure that the compressor stands on an even surface.
2. Remove the oil plug (18) and add new oil through the oil filling opening until the oil level in the oil sight glass (16) has reached the correct quantity (red dot). Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity. Overfilling may result in damage to the product.
3. Reinsert the oil plug (18) in the oil filling opening.

16.6 Cleaning the air filters (Fig. 5)

The air filters prevent dust and dirt being sucked in. It is necessary to clean this filter at least every 300 operating hours. A blocked air filter significantly reduces the compressor power.

1. Remove the air filters by opening the wing nut (1a) on the air filter housing (1).
2. Remove the wing nut (1a) and washer (1b).
3. Then draw the air filter housing (1) apart. You can now remove the air filter.
4. Carefully knock out the air filter and the parts of the filter housing.
5. These components must then be blown out with compressed air (approx. 3 bar) and reassembled in reverse order.
