Frequently Asked Questions - 200-012 Meec Tools

How do I start the compressor?

Ensure the ON/OFF button is in the OFF position. Plug the power cord into an earthed socket (230 V/50 Hz) protected by a 16 amp breaker. Turn the ON/OFF button to ON. The compressor will start and build up pressure. If the motor does not start, check the power supply and the motor protection switch.

What type of oil should I use and how do I check the oil level?

Use SAE 15W/40 or equivalent oil. The oil level should be visible in the sight glass between the red mark and top edge. Check regularly before use.

How often should I change the oil?

Change the oil for the first time after 100 hours of operation, and then every 500 hours thereafter. Drain the old oil via the oil drain screw and refill with new oil to the red mark on the sight glass.

What is the maximum working pressure and how do I adjust it?

The maximum working pressure is 8 bar. Use the pressure reducer and pressure gauge to set the desired output pressure. The pressure relief valve is pre-set and must not be adjusted.

What should I do if the motor does not start?

Check the power cord and socket. If the motor protection switch has tripped, disconnect the compressor from the power outlet, let it cool for five minutes, then press the reset button. Ensure the extension cable cross section is adequate (≥1.5 mm² for 10 m).

How do I drain condensation water?

Open the drain valve daily to release condensation water from the tank. This prevents rust and ensures safe operation.

Can I use the compressor in damp or wet conditions?

No. The compressor must not be used in damp or wet places. It is rated IP20 (not protected against water). Operate only in dry, well-ventilated areas with ambient temperature between 5°C and 40°C.

What personal protective equipment (PPE) should I wear?

Always wear ear protection (sound level 97 dB(A)) and eye protection. If the work generates dust, wear a dust mask. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery.

How do I clean the intake filter?

Clean the intake filter every 300 hours (or weekly). Remove the filter, gently remove dirt, and reinstall. A blocked filter reduces performance.

What maintenance does the pressure vessel require?

Inspect the pressure vessel weekly for visible damage or rust. Do not operate if defects are found. The wall thickness after corrosion must not be less than 2 mm on shell and heads. Contact an authorised service centre if damaged.

Wear hearing protection!

The declared vibration value, which has been measured by a standardised test method, can be used to compare different tools with each other and for a preliminary assessment of exposure.

WARNING!

The actual vibration level when using power tools may differ from the specified maximum value, depending on how the tool is used. It is therefore necessary to determine which safety precautions are required to protect the user, based on an estimate of exposure in actual operating conditions (taking into account all stages of the work cycle, e.g. the time when the tool is switched off and when it is idling, in addition to the start-up time).

ENGLISH

• Follow the instructions for maintenance and safety in this manual. Even if you wear protective glasses and other protective gear, you may get tiny particles of dust or dirt in your eyes or on your face.
• Always pay attention to what you are doing. Keep other people at a safe distance from where you are working.
  • If the compressor or air pressure line becomes damaged, contact your dealer to have it repaired.
• If the compressor emits a strange noise, unplug it immediately and contact your dealer.

Electrical connection

The compressor is equipped with a power cord with an earthed plug. This can be connected to an earthed socket (230 V/50 Hz) protected by a 16 amp breaker. Long supply lines and extension cables, cable reels, etc. cause voltage drops and can prevent the motor from starting. It can be difficult to start the motor at temperatures below 0°C. The use of over-long extension cables with a cross section that is too small will result in loss of voltage. This can make it difficult to start the motor and increases the load on the motor. If possible, always plug the motor cable directly into the socket and preferably use longer air hoses.

Recommended cable cross sections

Lengths up to approx. 10 m = 1.5 mm ^2 . Lengths up to approx. 20 m = 2.5 mm ^2 .

ENGLISH

Use of compressed air units and tools

Check the air consumption data from each manufacturer. Check that your compressor capacity is adequate.

Pressure vessel volume (litres) and theoretical suction capacity l/min

8 litres/50 l/min.

Motor protection switch

The compressor is equipped with a motor protection switch which is located on the compressor body. Excessive current to the motor causes the protector to trip and the power supply automatically shuts off. The cause must first be determined and then the machine must be disconnected from the power outlet to eliminate the risk of electric shock. Leave to cool for five minutes. Then press the reset button to enable the machine to start.
