When parking a compressor, secure support leg (1) or
jockey wheel (2) to support the compressor in a level
position. Be sure that the jockey wheel (2) is blocked
by the blocking pin (4).
Apply parking brake by pulling parking brake handle
(3) upwards. Place the compressor as level as
possible; however, it can be operated temporarily in
an out-of-level position not exceeding 15°. If the
compressor is parked on sloping ground, immobilize
the compressor by placing wheel chocks (available as
option) in front of or behind the wheels.
Never load the vehicles in excess of the
permissible total weight.
Never overstress the coupling or
suspension system due to reckless or
aggressive driving or mishandling.
Avoid subjecting the axles to any
impacts or jolting. Adapt your driving
speed at all times to the road conditions.
Ensure that wheels and tyres are not
misaligned or out-of-balance.
Only use the jacking points indicated by
Atlas Copco.
The operator is expected to apply all
relevant safety precautions, including
those mentioned on the pages 7 - 13 of
this book.
Before putting the compressor into use,
check the brake system as described in
section Brake (= option) adjustment.

every 5000 km:
