• Install the compressor near the point of consumption.
• Avoid long air lines and supply lines (extension ca
bles).
• Make sure that the intake air is dry and dustfree.
• 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 tem
perature from +5 °C to 40 °C). There must be no
dust, acids, vapors, explosive gases or inflamma
ble gases in the room.
• The compressor is designed to be used in dry
rooms. It is prohibited to use the compressor in ar
eas where work is conducted with sprayed water.
• The compressor may only be used outdoor briefly
when the ambient conditions are dry.
• The compressor must always be kept dry and must
not be left outdoors after work is complete.
8. Attachment and operation
m Important!
You must fully assemble the appliance before us-
ing it for the first time!
You will require the following tools for assembly and
installation: 2 x openended wrench size 14 mm (not
included)
8.1 Fitting the wheels (fig. 6,7)
• Screw on each wheel (3) one washer (C) and one
nut (B) on to the threads of the wheels.
• Then mount the wheels (3) on the wheel holders,
at the bottom of the pressure vessel (2), by using a
wrench to fix the nut (B), washer (C) and flange nuts
(D) on the other side of the thread.
8.2 Fitting the supporting foot (fig. 5)
• Mount the enclosed supporting foot (4) with the two
hex bolts (A), the two washers (C) and two flange
nuts (D), as shown in Figure 5.
8.3 Fitting the holding (fig. 8)
• Screw the holder 2 (E) in the threaded holes on the
right and left of the transport handle (9), and secure
the holder with the nuts (8.1) against twisting.
8.4 Mains connection
• The compressor is equipped with a mains cable
with shockproof plug. This can be connected to
any 230V~ / 50 Hz shockproof socket which is pro
tected by a 16 A fuse.
• Before you use the machine, make sure that the
mains voltage is the same as the operating voltage
(see the rating plate).
• Long supply cables, extensions, cable reels etc.
cause a drop in voltage and can impede motor
startup.

• At low temperatures below +5 °C, sluggishness
may make starting difficult or impossible.
8.5 ON/OFF switch (fig. 2)
• To switch on the compressor, press the button (8)
on position I.
• To switch off the compressor, press the button (8)
on position 0.
8.6 Setting the pressure (fig. 2)
• You can adjust the pressure on the pressure gauge
(6) using the pressure regulator (7).
• The set pressure can be taken from the quick lock
coupling (5).
8.7 Setting the pressure switch
The pressure switch is set at the factory. Cutin pres
sure approx. 8 bar. Cutout pressure approx. 10 bar.
9. Electrical connection
The electrical motor installed is connected and
ready for operation. The connection complies
with the applicable VDE and DIN provisions.
The customer's mains connection as well as
the extension cable used must also comply with
these regulations.
When working with spray attachments and during
temporary use outdoors, the device must be connect
ed to a residual current circuit breaker with a trigger
current of 30 mA or less.
Damaged electrical connection cable
The insulation on electrical connection cables is of
ten damaged.
This may have the following causes:
• Passage points, where connection cables are
passed through windows or doors.
• Kinks where the connection cable has been im
properly fastened or routed.
• Places where the connection cables have been cut
due to being driven over.
• Insulation damage due to being ripped out of the
wall outlet.
• Cracks due to the insulation ageing.
Such damaged electrical connection cables must not
be used and are lifethreatening due to the insulation
damage.
Check the electrical connection cables for damage
regularly. Make sure that the connection cable does
not hang on the power network during the inspection.
Electrical connection cables must comply with the
applicable VDE and DIN provisions. Only use con
nection cables with the marking „H05VVF".
The printing of the type designation on the connec
tion cable is mandatory.
