PARKING INSTRUCTIONS
Fixed tow bar with support leg and brakes
Release the adjustable handle to put the tow bar in a
vertical position. Secure the support leg (1) to support
the compressor in a level position.
Apply parking brake by pulling parking brake handle
(2) upwards. Place the compressor as level as
possible. It can be operated temporarily in an out-of-
level position not exceeding 15°. If the compressor is
parked on sloping ground, immobilize the compressor
by placing wheel chocks (available as an option) in
front of or behind the wheels.
Locate the rear-end of the compressor upwind, away
from contaminated wind-streams and walls. Avoid
recirculation of exhaust gas and warmed-up cooling
air. This causes overheating and engine power
decrease. Do not obstruct air evacuation from the
cooling system. The compressor oil lifetime will be
shortened when the compressor inlet air is
contaminated.
The operator is expected to apply all
relevant Safety precautions.
After the first 100 km travel:
Check and retighten the wheel nuts
and towbar bolts to the specified
torque. See section Compressor /
engine specifications.
When using a towing vehicle to
manoeuver the unit, take care that the
support leg is lifted maximally.
When the jockey wheel is on the ground,
the unit may only be manoeuvered by
hand.
