The BOGE maintenance concept
Maintenance intervals
The maintenance intervals specified in the following table refer to average
operation and ambient conditions.
Extreme conditions may require shorter maintenance intervals.
The first table contains maintenance and repair work that should be carried out
by the customer himself at regular intervals between the annual service car-
ried out by BOGE service personnel. The intervals between this maintenance
work are shorter (weekly / monthly / every 1,500 operating hours).
The maintenance intervals specified in the second table are longer (every
3,000 / 9,000 operating hours, or once a year / every two years). To retain your
warranty entitlement, BOGE recommends that you have this work carried out
by BOGE service personnel.
Maintenance work between (annual) service
The following maintenance and repair work can be carried out yourself and will
ensure that your compressor operates trouble-free in the periods between the
fixed service dates.
