10.5 Changing the oil (Fig. 3,10)
Switch off the engine and pull the mains plug out of the
socket. Remove the oil sealing plug (16). After releasing any
air pressure you can unscrew the oil drain plug (12) from the
compressor pump (13).
To prevent the oil from running out in an uncontrolled man-
ner, 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 (12).
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 (20) until it comes up to the maximum
level. This is marked with a red dot on the oil level window
(18) (Fig. 11). Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity.
Overfilling the equipment may result in damage. Reinsert
the oil sealing plug (16) into the oil filler opening (20).
10.6 Cleaning the air filter (15) (Fig. 3, 12, 13)
The air filter (15) prevents dust and dirt being drawn in. It is
essential to clean this filter after at least every 300 hours in
service. A clogged air filter will decrease the compressor's
performance dramatically. Open the thumb screw (E) to the
remove the air filter (15).
Then pull off the filter cover (C). Now you can remove the
air filter insert (F). Carefully tap out the air filter insert, filter
cover and filter housing. Then blow out these parts with
compressed air (approx. 3 bar) and reinstall in reverse
order.
12. Transport
Use the handle to transport the compressor.
Observe the weight when lifting the compressor (see Technical Data).
When transporting the compressor in a motor vehicle, ensure good load securing.

10.7 Storage
m Important!
Pull out the mains plug and ventilate the equipment
and all connected pneumatic tools. Switch off the com-
pressor and make sure that it is secured in such a way
that it cannot be started up again by any unauthor-
ized person.
m Important!
Store the compressor only in a dry location which is
not accessible to unauthorized persons. Always store
upright, never tilted! Oil may leak out!
10.7.1 Releasing excess pressure
Release the excess pressure by switching off the compressor
and using the compressed air which is still left in the pres-
sure vessel, e.g. with a compressed air tool running in idle
mode or with a blow-out pistol.
11. Disposal and recycling
The equipment is supplied in packaging to prevent it from
being damaged in transit. The raw materials in this pack-
aging can be reused or recycled. The equipment and its
accessories are made of various types of material, such as
metal and plastic. Defective components must be disposed
of as special waste. Ask your dealer or your local council.
The packaging is wholly composed of environment-
ally-friendly materials that can be disposed of at a
local recycling centre.
Contact your local refuse disposal authority for more
details of how to dispose of your worn out electrical
devices.
Remedy
• Check the supply voltage, the power plug and the socket-outlet.
• Make sure that the extension cable is not too long.
Use an extension cable with large enough wires.
• Never operate with an outside temperature of below +5° C.
• Allow the motor to cool down. If necessary, remedy the cause of
the overheating.
• Have a service center replace the non-return valve (19).
• Check the seals and have any damaged seals replaced by a
service center.
• Tighten the screw by hand. Check the seal on the screw and
replace if necessary.
• Check the compressed air hose and tools and replace if necessary.
• Check the quick-lock coupling and replace if necessary.
• Increase the set pressure with the pressure regulator.
