tracted.
14. Check the compressor for damage. Before
using the compressor again, check the safety
devices or any slightly damaged parts to
ensure that they are in good working order.
Check that the moving parts are working cor-
rectly, that they do not jam, and that no parts
are damaged. Make sure that all parts are fit-
ted correctly to ensure that the equipment re-
mains safe to use. Unless otherwise stated in
the operating instructions, damaged guards
and parts have to be repaired or replaced
by a customer service workshop. Damaged
