This equipment is supplied without batteries and without a charger and is allowed to be used only with lithium-ion batteries and chargers from the Power X-Change series!
Please note that the equipment's performance will be limited if it is used with the following batteries:
• Power X-Change 18V 1.5 Ah
• Power X-Change 18V 2.0 Ah
• Power X-Change 18V 2.5 Ah
• Power X-Change 18V 2.6 Ah

Danger!
Noise
The noise emission values were measured in accordance with EN ISO 3744.
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 those of the rechargeable battery.
- 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.
- 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 °C to 40 °C). There must 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.
- Use flexible hoses in order to prevent transmitting unacceptable loads to the pipeline system at the connection between the compressor system and the pipeline system.
- It is essential to use separators, traps and drains which process the liquids produced by the compressor before the compressor system is put into operation.
- Supply hoses at pressures above 7 bar should be equipped with a safety cable (e.g. a wire rope).
5.1 Charging the battery (Fig. 3)
-
Take the battery pack out of the equipment. Do this by pressing the side pushlock buttons.
-
Check that your mains voltage is the same as that marked on the rating plate of the battery charger. Insert the power plug of the charger (d) into the socket outlet. The green LED will then begin to flash.
-
Slot the battery pack (12) onto the battery charger (d).
-
In the section entitled „Charger indicator“ you will find a table with an explanation of the LED indicator on the charger.
GB
The battery pack can become a little warm during the charging. This is normal.
If the battery pack fails to charge, check:
• whether there is voltage at the socket outlet
- whether there is good contact at the charging contacts
If the battery pack still fails to charge, send
• thecharger
• and the battery pack
to our customer service center.
To ensure that items are properly packaged and delivered when you send them to us, please contact our customer service or the point of sale at which the equipment was purchased.
When shipping or disposing of batteries and cordless tools, always ensure that they are packed individually in plastic bags to prevent short circuits and fi res.
To ensure that the battery pack provides long service, you should take care to recharge it promptly. You must recharge the battery pack when you notice that the performance of the device drops. Never allow the battery pack to become fully discharged. This will cause it to develop a defect.
Fitting the battery (Fig. 2)
Flip up the battery cover (14) as shown in Figure 2. Then insert the battery pack (12) in the mount.
Battery capacity indicator (Fig. 4)
Press the battery capacity indicator switch (a). The battery capacity indicator (b) will indicate the charge status of the battery by means of 3 LEDs.
All 3 LEDs are lit:
The battery is fully charged.
2 or 1 LED(s) are lit:
The battery has an adequate remaining charge.
1 LED fl ashes:
The battery is empty, recharge the battery.
All LEDs blink:
The battery temperature is too low. Remove the battery from the equipment, keep it at room temperature for one day. If the fault reoccurs, this means that the rechargeable battery has undergone exhaustive discharge and is defective. Remove
the battery from the equipment. Never use or charge a defective battery.
6. Assembly and starting
Important!
You must fully assemble the equipment before using it for the first time.
6.1 On/Off switch (Fig. 1)
To switch on the equipment, set the On/Off switch (8) to position 1.
To switch off the equipment, move the On/Off switch (8) to position 0.
6.2 Setting the pressure (Fig. 1)
- You can adjust the pressure on the pressure gauge (6) using the pressure regulator (7).
- The set pressure can be drawn from the quick-lock coupling (5).
6.3 Setting the pressure switch
The pressure switch is set at the factory. Cut-in pressure approx. 6 bar Cut-out pressure approx. 8 bar
7. Cleaning, maintenance and ordering of spare parts
Hazard!
Remove the rechargeable batteries before doing any cleaning and maintenance work.
Warning!
Wait until the compressor has completely cooled down. Risk of burns!
Warning!
Always depressurize the tank before carrying out any cleaning and maintenance work.
Warning!
After use, always switch off the equipment immediately and pull out the rechargeable batteries.
7.1 Cleaning
- Keep the safety devices 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.
GB
• We recommend that you clean the appliance immediately after you use it.
- Clean the appliance regularly with a damp cloth and some soft soap. Do not use cleaning agents or solvents; these may be aggressive to the plastic parts in the appliance. Ensure that no water can get into the interior of the appliance.
- 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 Condensed water (Fig. 1a)
Important! To ensure a long service life of the pressure vessel (2), drain off the condensed water by opening the drainage cock (11) each time after using.
Check the pressure vessel for signs of rust and damage each time before using. Do not use the compressor with a damaged or rusty pressure vessel. If you discover any damage, please contact the customer service workshop.
7.3 Safety valve (10)
The safety valve is set to the maximum permissible pressure of the pressure vessel. It is not permitted to adjust the safety valve or remove its seal. It should be pressed from time to time to check the function. To check the safety valve, carefully unscrew the screw cap while the boiler is pressurized. When opening the cap, air will escape at the valve. After you have opened the screw cap, screw it back on completely.
7.4 Cleaning the intake fi Iter (3)
The intake fi liter prevents dust and dirt being drawn in. It is essential to clean this fi liter after at least every 300 hours in operation. A clogged intake fi liter will decrease the compressor's performance dramatically. Open the halves of the air fi liter housing. Use compressed air at low pressure (approx. 3 bar) to blow out all the parts of the fi liter and then assemble the fi liter in reverse order.
When cleaning, take adequate precautions against dust (e.g. use a suitable face mask).
7.5 Storage
Warning!
Pull out the rechargeable batteries and ventilate the equipment 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.
Warning!
Store the compressor only in a dry location which is not accessible to unauthorized persons. Always store upright, never tilted!
7.6 Transport
- Transport the equipment only by carrying it by the transport handle.
- Protect the equipment against unexpected knocks and vibrations.
