source
The machine has been running at least 5 mi‐
nutes in LOAD mode.
The machine is fully vented,
the pressure gauge on the oil separator tank
reads 0 bar.
1. Close the shut-off valve
10
in the venting
line.
2. Start the machine and watch the oil separa‐
tor tank pressure gauge
2
until it reads 3–
5 bar.
3. Switch off the machine.
4. Wait at least 2 minutes to allow the oil to
flow back to the separator tank.
Cut-off the electrical power supply via the power
supply isolating device,
ensure that the device is locked off,
verify the absence of any voltage.
The machine is fully vented,
the pressure gauge on the oil separator tank
reads 0 bar.
An external source of compressed air is availa‐
ble.
1. Close the shut-off valve
10
in the venting
line.
2. With the shut-off valve closed, insert the
plug-in nozzle
6
into the hose coupling
3
.
3. Connect the maintenance hose to the exter‐
nal air supply.
4. Open the shut-off valve
7
until the pressure
gauge on the oil separator tank reads 3–
5 bar.
5. Close the shut-off valve
