DESCRIPTION OF THE INTENDED USE
Compressed air can be dangerous when used improperly! Before any operation, maintenance or machine repairs - the
pressure system should be completely empty (free from over-pressure). Besides this, the machine shall be secured against
accidental starting.
Guarantee the machine will be operated on nominal pressure only and the compressor operating personnel are acquainted
with this instruction. Pressure level of compressed air equipment connected to the machine must be at least the same as the
machine nominal pressure level.
Warning
Under no circumstances compressed air is allowed to be used for direct human respiration!
Warning
Compressed air can cause serious injury or death. Relieve overpressure before removing filler plugs/caps, fit-
tings or covers.
Warning
Residual air pressure in the air system can cause serious injury or death. Always carefully vent the air supply
line to tools or cocks before any maintenance.
Output air contains a small amount of compressor oil. For this reason it is necessary to verify the compatibility of all used
equipment connected to the compressed air source.
If compressed air flows into the closed space, it is necessary to provide cooling of the air.
All personnel should always wear proper protective clothes when working with compressed air.
All pressure loaded parts including the pressure hoses should be tested regularly. No signs of damage should be observed
and all parts should be used in conformance with instructions for their use and/or for their intended purpose.
Avoid contact with compressed air.
The safety valve on the oil separator should be tested regularly according to given instructions.
When the machine is stopped, compressed air can flow back into the compressor system from devices or systems
downstream of the machine, unless the service valve is closed. Install a back pressure valve at the machine outlet cocks to
avoid reverse flow in the event of an unexpected shut-down when the outlet cocks are open.
Disconnected air hoses whip and can cause serious injury or death. Always attach a safety flow restrictor to each hose
according to safety rules.
The supposed ways of the machine use are presented below. If the machine should be used in an unusual way or in an
unusual surroundings, please contact the manufacturer.
This machine has been designed and supplied for use under following conditions only:
∙
compressing the usual air that does not contain any additional gases, vapours or additives,
∙
the machine will be operated at temperatures shown in chapter Technical parameters on page 6 ,
∙
the machine will be operated in conformance with this Operation and maintenance handbook.,
∙
the generator will be operated up to nominal current and voltage (when the machine is equipped with a generator).
