Danger
Please observe the general safety
regulations in the compressor manual
when operating the compressor.
Operation of the oil temperature
controller is fully automatic. Mal-

Danger
Works on the brake system may only be
carried out in specialized workshops.
When replacing braking shoes, make
sure that all brake shoes of the axle are
replaced.
When working at the wheel brakes,
make sure that the springs, the brake
shoes and the spreading lever are
correctly installed; observe the correct
sense of rotation.
When adjusting the wheel brakes, turn
wheels in forward direction!
Basically, a readjustment according to
chapter 17.5 "Fitting of the braking
system" must be effected whenever
works are carried out at the brake
system.
If the wheel brakes or the brake drum
have got very hot, continue to drive
carefully on, if possible, until they have
somewhat cooled down.

16. Tool oiler option
Fig. 42
Attention
Danger
Only refill the tool oiler, when the screw
compressor is out of operation and
depressurized!
Only screw off the oiler reservoir, when
the screw compressor is out of
operation and depressurized!
Do not spill any oil!
Watch out for leakage!
The oil dosage is continuously variable at
the adjusting knob.
* Turning the adjusting knob clockwise
(symbol »–«) will reduce the oil flow up
to 0-quantity (i.e. no oil for tool
lubrication in the compressed air).
* Turning the adjusting knob counterclock-
wise (symbol »+«) will increase the oil
flow.
Fig. 43
* Shut down the screw compressor and
wait until the compressor is
depressurized.
* Unscrew the screw plug.
* The oil must be visible in the oiler
reservoir; refill, if necessary (oil to be
used: CompAir AES 82).
