4.0 FIRST USE
1. Check if the instructions mentioned above have been executed.
2. On delivery the compressor mostly is filled with oil. Fill about 0,8 litres com-
pressor oil until the red circle on the oil leveler.
3. Install the air filter (1) in the cylinder head (first remove the synthetic plug).
4. Install the oil filler cap (6) on the crank case lid (first remove the synthetic plug).
5. Avoid the use of extension cables. If you use them, unroll them completely and
use cables of sufficient capacity. Table for extension cables:
0 - 10 meter: 3 x 2,5 mm

Switch on the compressor by means of the pressure switch (7).
The compressor will now operate, unless the air receiver is still under pressure
(pressure gauge 2).
Switch the machine, during operation, exclusively off by means of the button on
the automatic pressure switch (7); the pressure circuit will be vented and the
compressor can start again uncharged.
5.0 OPERATION
1. The automatically operating compressor will stop at a pressure of 8 bar. When air
is used again and the pressure in the tank falls to 6 bar, the compressor will start
again.
2. Most pneumatic machines are suitable for an operating pressure of about 6 bar.
For some applications this pressure is even lower. To be able to set the right
pressure, the compressor is provided with a reducing valve (3). This valve can set
the pressure of the air receiver (of course never higher than the pressure in the air
receiver).
3. The setting of the reducing valve is done as follows: switch the button to set the
right pressure (to the left to lower the pressure, to the right to increase it). The set
pressure can be read on the pressure gauge (4).
