Once
the
compressor
disconnected from the mains, remove the protective
grate by turning the plastic clips (33) 90° using pliers.
Then remove the screw (31) including washers (32),
which connects the protective grate (2) with the motor
(4) using a 4 mm Allen key.
Now undo the four screws (33) on the motor (4) with
two size 14 spanners, so that you can subsequently
slide the motor.
It is now possible to change the V-belt (3).
After successfully changing the V-belt, perform the
same steps in reverse order to bring the device back
into operational condition. Make sure the motor is
bolted at a right angle to the running direction, in order
to guarantee fault-free running of the V-belt.
16.2 Maintenance of the pressure vessel
Attention!
To ensure a long service life for the pressure vessel
(12), drain off the condensate after each use by opening
the drain screw (21). Release the vessel pressure
beforehand (see 10.5).
The drain screw is opened by turning it counterclockwise
(when looking at the screw on the bottom of the
compressor) so that the condensate can be completely
drained out of the pressure vessel. Then close the
drain screw again (turn clockwise). Check the pressure
vessel for rust and damage each time before use.
The compressor shall not be operated if the pressure
vessel is damaged or rusty. If you discover damage,
please contact the customer service workshop.
m Attention!
The condensate from the pressure vessel contains
oil residue. Dispose of the condensate in an
environmentally friendly manner at a suitable collection
point.
16.3 Safety valve (Fig. B)
The safety valve (20) is set to the maximum permissible
pressure of the pressure vessel. It is not permitted to
adjust the safety valve or to remove the connection lock
(20.2) between the drain nut (20.1) and its cap (20.3).
In order for the safety valve to function properly when
needed, it must be actuated every 30 operating hours
and at least 3 times a year. Turn the perforated drain
nut (20.1) anti-clockwise to open it, then pull the valve
stem outwards by hand via the perforated drain nut
(20.1) to open the safety valve outlet.

Now, the valve audibly releases air. Then turn the drain
nut clockwise again to tighten.
16.4 Check the oil level at regular intervals (Fig. F)
Place the compressor on a level and straight surface.
The oil level must be at the centre of the oil sight glass
(16) (red dot).
16.5 Oil change (Fig. L)
The first oil filling must be changed after 10 operating
hours; afterwards, perform an oil change every 50
operating hours.
Switch the motor off and unplug the mains plug from
the power outlet. Remove the oil drain screw (15).
Additionally open the oil plug (18).
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.
Once the oil has fully drained out, replace the oil drain
screw (15).
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.
Remove the oil plug (18) and add new oil through the oil
filler hole until the oil level in the oil sight glass (16) has
reached the correct quantity (red dot).
Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity. Overfilling
the equipment may result in damage.
Reinsert the oil plug (18) in the oil filler hole.
16.6 Cleaning the air filter
The air filter prevents dust and dirt being sucked in.
It is necessary to clean this filter at least every 300
operating hours.
A blocked air filter significantly reduces the compressor
power.
Remove the air filter by opening the wing nut (27) on
the air filter housing (1). Remove the wing nut (27) and
washer (28).
Then draw out the air filter housing (1). Draw the air
filter housing (1) apart. You can now remove the air
filter. Carefully knock out the air filter and the parts of
the filter housing.
