4.5 Electric connection
The compressor is delivered with a plug containing an appropriate protective
contact. It is essential to respect the local electrical regulations. The mains
voltage and frequency must comply with the information on the Data Label.
The power cord for the connection to the mains supply and the tubing of the
airhoses must not be broken. The power cord must not be stressed or have
any tension exerted upon it, and must always be free.
• If the appliance is connected to the mains supply by the means of a plug, the
socket must be accessible due to safety reasons, in order for the appliance to be
safely disconnected from the mains supply in the case of danger.
• The relevant current circuit (circuit breaker) must be safeguarded maximally to
10 A.
• Connection of the equipotential connection with other appliances must be
completed according to local valid electrical regulations.
4.6 First use
• Check whether all fixing screws used during transport were removed.
• Check that the connections of the compressed air supplies are correct.
• Check for proper connection to the mains supply.
• Switch on the compressor to position ‘I’.
After first putting the compressor into operation, the air chamber of compressor is
pressurized to a ‘switching-off’ pressure and the compressor will then be
automatically switched off. During the following time period the compressor works in
an automatic mode, i.e. according to the consumption of compressed air, the
compressor is switched on and off by the pressure switch.
During the operation, the appliance releases condensed water from the condenser
(filter) automatically to the evaporative vessel.
