DANGER
Always observe the safety notes in Section
4 of the user manual.
Pay attention to the weight-bearing capacity
of the ground.
DANGER
Risk of explosion - The compressor intake
should be set up such that hazardous
mixtures (solvent vapors etc.) cannot be
sucked in. The same applies to flying
sparks.
CAUTION
Burn Hazard - Pipework or other parts with
a surface temperature of over 158 °F must
be appropriately protected from being
touched and labeled.
NOTICE
The operator must always provide sufficient
ventilation and exhaust for the compressor
station.
The screw compressor must be placed so that it lies
level. The system may not be run while on the transport
pallet.
Maintain distance from walls, other machines, etc. so
that enough free space is available for maintenance
and repairs (see Fig. 7).
When running the screw compressor system, heat is
created by the electric motor and the compression
process. A part of this heat is given off by the screw
compressor to its surroundings.
The output and service life of the compressor are strongly
influenced by good quality ventilation and exhaust.
Once the compressor has been installed, the R-clips
(- 1 - Fig. 6) can be removed from the hinge pins
(- 2 - Fig. 6). The R-clips prevent the doors from falling
off while being transported from the manufacturer.
