10. Cleaning, maintenance and storage

⚠ Attention!

Pull out the mains plug before carrying out any cleaning and maintenance work! Risk of injury from electric shock!

⚠ Attention!

Wait until the equipment has cooled down completely! Danger of burning!

⚠ Attention!

Always depressurise the equipment before carrying out any cleaning and maintenance work! Risk of injury!

10.1 Cleaning

  • Keep the device as free of dust and dirt as possible. Rub the device clean with a clean cloth or blow it off with compressed air at low pressure.
    • We recommend that you clean the device directly after every use.
  • Clean the device at regular intervals using a damp cloth and a little soft soap. Do not use any cleaning products or solvents; they could attack the plastic parts of the device. Make sure that no water can penetrate the device interior.

- The hose and injection tools must be disconnected from the compressor before cleaning. The compressor must not be cleaned with water, solvents or similar.

10.2 Maintenance of the pressure vessel (Fig. 1) △ Attention!

To ensure a long service life for the pressure vessel (8), drain off the condensate after each use by opening the drain screw (10).

Release the boiler pressure beforehand (see 10.7.1). The drain screw is opened by turning it counterclockwise (when looking at the screw on the bottom of the compressor) so that the condensate can be completely drained out of the pressure vessel. Then close the drain screw again (turn clockwise). Check the pressure vessel for rust and damage each time before use.

The compressor shall not be operated if the pressure vessel 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.

10.3 Safety valve (Fig. 1, 3)

The safety valve (17) 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 (17.2) between the drain nut (17.1) and its cap (17.3).

Actuate the safety valve every 30 operating hours but at least 3 times a year to ensure that it works when required. Turn the perforated drain nut (17.1) anti-clockwise to open it, then pull the valve stem outwards by hand via the perforated drain nut (17.1) to open the safety valve outlet. Now, the valve audibly releases air. Then turn the drain nut clockwise again to tighten.

10.4 Check the oil level at regular intervals (Fig. 11)

Place the compressor on a level and straight surface. The oil level must be positioned between the MAX and MIN of the oil sight glass (12).

Oil change: Recommended oil: SAE 5W 40 or equivalent.

The first oil filling must be changed after 10 operating hours; afterwards, perform an oil change every 50 operating hours.

10.5 Oil change (Fig. 1, 10, 11)

Switch the motor off and unplug the mains plug from the power outlet. Remove the oil plug (15). After releasing any air pressure, you can unscrew the oil drain screw (12) on the compressor pump (13).

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. Once the oil has fully drained out, replace the oil drain screw (12).

Dispose of the old oil at a drop-off point for old oil.

To fill in the correct quantity of oil, make sure that the compressor stands on an even surface. Fill the new oil into the oil filler hole (18) until the oil level reaches the maximum fill quantity. This is indicated by a red dot on the oil sight glass (12) (Fig. 11). Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity.

Overfilling the equipment may result in damage. Reinsert the oil plug (15) into the oil filler hole (18).

10.6 Cleaning the intake filter (Fig. 3, 12, 13)

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

Remove the intake filter (2x) by opening the screw (E). Then pull off the filter cover (D). You can now remove the air filter (F).

Carefully knock out the air filter, filter cover and filter housing.

These components must then be blown out with compressed air (approx. 3 bar) and reassembled in reverse order.

10.7 Storage

⚠ Attention!

Pull out the mains plug and ventilate the equipment and all connected pneumatic tools. Store the compressor in such a way that it cannot be used by unauthorised persons.

Attention!

Store the compressor only in a dry location which is not accessible to unauthorised persons. Always store upright, never tilted! Oil may leak out!

10.7.1 Releasing overpressure

Release overpressure in the compressor by switching off the compressor and using up the compressed air still in the pressure vessel, e.g. with a compressed air tool running at idle or with an air blow gun.
