Prior to first commissioning, observe the following:
Necessary steps are described on the next page.
• Ensure that cooling air can flow freely.
• Check compressor oil level with the oil dipstick (see next page).
• Check all connections and retighten if necessary.
• Check if the filter cartridge is in place (see "Service and Maintenance").
• Check the V-belt tension (see next page).

the OFF button and contact an authorised electrician.
3. Check oil pressure (if oil pressure gauge is installed).
4. Run the compressor for about 2 minutes.
5. Close the open filling valve carefully.

the compressor. If the final pressure switch does not shut off, switch off the compressor with
