14.1. Condensation drain valve
Compressors (Fig.9, Fig.10)
During regular use, release condensation from the pressure tank. Switch
off the compressor at the mains. Reduce air pressure in the appliance to
max. 1 bar by releasing air via a connected device. Place the hose with
the drain valve into a container prepared in advance (for compressors
DK50 PLUS place the vessel under release valve) and open the drain
valve (1). Wait until condensation is fully drained from the pressure tank.
Close drain valve (1).
Compressors with condensation and filtration unit
(Fig.14)
During regular use, condensation is automatically released via the
release valve of the condensation unit filter. To check that the automatic
drain is working properly, open the valve (4) of the drain vessel (2) by
turning to the left. Release a small amount of condensate from the
vessel. Close the valve (4) by turning to the right.
Compressors with air dryer
In the case of a regular operation condensate is automatically excreted via air dryer and it is entrapped in a
bottle. Take out the bottle from a holder, release stopper and pour out the condensate.
If necessary, it is possible to connect the set for condensate discharge onto the condensate outlet
(see Chap. PARTS LIST - Auxiliary Equipment).
For compressor models DK50 S, DK50-10 S and DK50-10S/M the case must be removed
before beginning the following procedures.
For DK50 PLUS S, DK50 PLUS S/M - unlock the lock on the door and open the housing door (Fig.4)
14.2. Safety valve check
(Fig.8)
When the compressor is operated for the first time, make sure that the safety valve is working properly. Turn
screw (4) of safety valve (1) several rotations to the left until the safety valve releases air. Let the safety
valve blow out for only a few seconds. Turn screw (4) to the right until it seats, closing the valve.
The safety valve must never be used for depressurizing the air tank. It could damage the
safety valve. The valve is set to the maximum permitted pressure by the manufacturer.
Adjustments are not permitted.
Warning! Compressed air can be dangerous. Wear eye protection when blowing air out.
14.3. Replacement of input filter
(Fig.11)
It is necessary to replace the input filter (1) located in the lid of crank box of a
compressor.

Pull out the rubber plug (2) using a hand.

Take out the used and contaminated filter.

Insert new filter and put on a rubber plug.
