1.3
Intended use
The compressor conforms to the state of the art
and the applicable safety conditions at the time of
its bringing to market provided it is used for its in-
tended purpose.
From a design point of view, neither intentional
misuse nor all of the residual dangers can be
avoided, without limiting the intended functionality.
The compressor is designed for the compres-
sion of atmospheric air (compressed air for driving
pressure equipment). The compressor is not suit-
able for the compression of other gases.
