5.0 Commissioning
When commissioning the machine, the
safety regulations (see „Safety“ on
page 5.) and the additionally applicable
accident prevention regulations must be
observed.
Commissioning and all associated work may only be
carried out by suitably skilled personnel.
5.1 Prior to commissioning
Read the operating manual!
Train the operating personnel!
Carry out a visual inspection of the
machine!
5.2 Oil tank
Fill the storage oil tank (2) up to the lower edge of the
thread on the oil tank (Diagram 7 on page 12).
Oil tank capacity = 3.4 litres /
Useful capacity = 2.9 litres
Never allow the oil level to drop below the
minimum (lower notch on the oil dipstick
(4) level)!
After filling firmly close the plug (1) of the oil tank.
5.3 Shut-off fittings
Open all manually operated valves and slide valves on
the system.
5.4 Prelubricate
To prelubricate, inject about ¼ litre of oil in the intake
socket. Repeat every 15 minutes during the initial 1-2
operating hours.
5.5 Direction of rotation
Briefly switch on the drive and check the direction of
rotation according to the arrow on the housing.
5.6 Drive
Switch on drive and check whether pressure/vacuum
is produced.
5.7 Check operating parameters
Check pressure/vacuum, speed and temperature
according to the identification plate and technical data
(see „Technical data“ on page 3.)
5.8 Check safety valves
Check that the safety valves blow off!
5.9 Version with four-way cock
Link the connection (8) (R 2”) on the change-over
four-way cock with the tank.
Using a short pipe, an exhaust silencer can be fitted
on the connection (7) (R 2”), so as to effectively
dampen the exhaust noise. An agitating lance can be
operated here via a flexible tube.
The fitted change-over four-way cock (5) has the posi-
tion 9 = “Suction” and 10 = “Pressurise”.
The changeover lever must always be
pushed against the pertinent stop. An
intermediate setting is not permitted
whilst the machine is operating!
When the machine is at a standstill, the tank can be
quickly aerated or vented with an intermediate posi-
tion.
