Do not switch off the compressor by pulling the elec-

Compressed air circuit. Use compressed air hoses and
tools made for a higher (or identical pressure) than the
maximum operating pressure of the compressor.
Additional safety notes for air compressors
Warning:
Before connecting the compressor to the electric
power (main switch on machine, socket, etc.), make sure
the power supply corresponds with the data on the model
plate. A higher mains voltage can cause serious injuries
and damage the machine. Do not connect the machine in
case of doubt. If the mains voltage is too low, the motor
can get damaged.
Always pull the power supply plug before doing any mainte-
nance or adjustment work, including changing the oil.
1 Never try to remove a part from the compressor while
it is pressurized.
2 Never try to remove an electrical part while the com-
pressor is connected to the mains supply. Switch the
machine off and pull the power supply plug.
3 Do not adjust the safety valve.
4 Do not use an electrical extension cable.
5 If the drain plug underneath the switch cover (2) does
not work while the ON/OFF switch is depressed, switch
the power supply off and try to find the cause for the
defect.
6 Make sure the lubrication oil is clean and the oil level
remains in the centre of the red circle on the oil sight
glass (16).
7 Be careful when you vent the tank (from the safety valve,
the drain plug, or the air escape). Compressed air can
be extremely dangerous. Make sure the air current does
not whirl up any dust, stones or other foreign bodies.
Be also sure that the air does escape in a safe way.
s
In order to reduce the risk of fire or explosions, never
spray inflammable fluids in an enclosed room. It is
normal that sparks escape from the motor during op-
eration. When these sparks get in touch with gasoline
vapours or inflammable liquids, they can ignite and
cause fire or explosions.
s
Always operate the compressor in a well vented room.
Do not smoke during spraying. Do not spray in the
presence of sparks or flames. Keep the compres-
sor as far as possible away from the spraying place.
