10. Cleaning, maintenance, and storage
n
Important!
Pull out the power plug before doing any cleaning and
maintenance work on the equipment. Risk of injury from
electric shock!
n
Important!
Wait until the equipment has cooled down completely!
Risk of burns!
n
Important!
Always depressurize the equipment before carrying out any
cleaning and maintenance work! Risk of injury!
10.1 Cleaning
• Keep the equipment free of dirt and dust as far as
possible. Wipe the equipment with a clean cloth or
blow it down with compressed air at low pressure.
• We recommend that you clean the equipment imme-
diately after you use it.
• Clean the equipment regularly with a damp cloth and
some soft soap. Do not use cleaningagents or sol-
vents; these may be aggressive to the plastic parts
in the equipment. Ensure that no water can get into
the interior of the equipment.
• You must disconnect the hose and any spraying tools
from the compressor before cleaning. Do not clean
the compressor with water, solvents or the like.
10.2 Maintenance work on the pressure vessel/con-
densed water (Fig. 1)
m Important!
To ensure a long service life of the pressure vessel
(7), drain off the condensed water by opening the
drain valve (9) each time after using.
Release the vessel pressure first (see 10.8). Open the
drain screw by turning counter-clockwise (looking at
the screw from the bottom of the compressor) so that
all the condensed water can run out of the pressure
vessel. Then close the drain screw again (turn it clock-
wise). Check the pressure vessel for signs of rust and
damage each time before using. Do not use the com-
pressor with a damaged or rusty pressure vessel. If you
discover any damage, then please contact the customer
service workshop.
10.3 Safety valve (Fig. 2/Pos. 16)
The safety valve (16) has been set for the highest per-
mitted pressure of the pressure vessel. It is prohibited
to adjust the safety valve or remove its seal. Actuate
the safety valve from time to time to ensure that it works
when required. Pull the ring with suffi cient force until
you can hear the compressed air being released.
There lease the ring again.

10.4 Checking the oil level at regular intervals (Fig-
ure 10
Place the compressor on a level and straight surface.
The oil level must be between the MAX and MIN marks
on the oil level window (18).
Oil change: we recommend SAE 15W 40 or equivalent.
The original oil fi lling must be changed after 100 hours
in operation; thereafter the oil must be drained and
replaced with new oil after every 500 hours in operation.
10.5 Changing the oil (Figure 10)
Switch off the engine and pull the mains plug out of the
socket. After releasing any air pressure you can un-
screw the oil drain plug (20) from the compressor pump.
To prevent the oil from running out in an uncontrolled
manner, hold a small metal chute under the opening
and collect the oil in a vessel. If the oil does not drain
out completely, we recommend tilting the compressor
slightly. When the oil has drained out, re fit the oil drain
plug (20).
Dispose of the old oil at a drop-off point for old oil.
To fill in the correct quantity of oil, make sure that the
compressor stands on an even surface. Fill new oil
through the oil filler opening (14.1) until it comes up to
the maximum level. This is marked with a red dot on the
oil level window (18) (Fig. 10 pos. 18.1). Do not exceed
the maximum filling quantity. Overfilling the equipment
may result in damage. Reinsert the oil sealing plug (14)
into the oil filler opening (14.1).
10.6 Cleaning the intake filter (Fig. 12, 13)
The intake filter prevents dust and dirt being drawn in.
It is essential to clean this filter after at least every 300
hours in service. A clogged intake filter will decrease
the compressor's performance dramatically. Open the
thumb screw (G) to the remove the intake filter.
Then pull off the fi lter cover (J). Now you can remove
the air filter (L) and the filter housing (K). Carefully tap
out the air filter, filter cover and filter housing. Then blow
out these parts with compressed air (approx. 3 bar) and
reinstall in reverse order.
10.7 Storage
m Important!
Pull out the mains plug and ventilate the equip-
ment and all connected pneumatic tools. Switch
off the compressor and make sure that it is secured
in such a way that it cannot be started up again by
any unauthorized person.
