INTRODUCTION

Blitz piston compressors are the result of many years
of experience. Their high quality level and superior
design are your guarantee for their reliability, long
service life, and economical operation. In order to
avoid any unnecessary damage or danger, please read
these instructions carefully and always follow them
at all times.

PROPER USE

This compressor has been designed and built in
accordance with the latest state of the technical art
and the acknowledged safety regulations.

However, its use could cause potential danger to the
life and limb of the user or a third party, and possibly
damage to itself and other machinery, if:

• it is used for anything other than its proper

purpose

• it has been tampered with or converted improp-

erly

• the safety instructions are not observed.

This machine is intended exclusively for generating
compressed air for driving machinery. Its use for any
other purpose counts as improper use, and the
manufacturer cannot be held responsible for any
resultant damage; this risk must be borne by the user
alone. Proper use also includes adherence to the
operating instructions and to the service and mainte­nance instructions.

We reserve the right to make modifications without
prior announcement as part of our programme of
continuous technical improvement.

GUARANTEE

The guarantee period is six months.
You have no guarantee claim in the event of:

• operating mistakes

• inadequate maintenance

• incorrect consumable material

• installation of the wrong replacement parts

(please only ever use original Blitz parts)

• improper technical alterations to the machine

• failure to adhere to the operating instructions.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

The following safety instructions and precautions
should be observed in particular, and in addition to
the safety regulations generally applicable to air
compressors:

at all times.

• Make sure the machine is in a safe operating

condition at all times, and replace defective parts
immediately if they could have any effect on its
operating safety.

• Never reach inside the suction or air outlet

openings when the machine is running. Rotating
wheels, drive belts, or hot surfaces could cause
very serious injury.

• Only ever use original Blitz replacement parts.

• Technical modifications or alterations to the

machine are totally prohibited.

• The limit figures for pressures and temperatures

must be labelled in a permanent manner and
never exceeded.

• The machine is only allowed to be operated when

all the protective and safety devices are in place
and working perfectly.

• The warning and safety instructions for the

machine must be observed, and must always be
kept in a readily legible condition.
