7 Operating instructions
7.1 Initial start-up
Warning
A ‘The operator must apply all relevant Safety precautions.
A ‘Switch off the voltage before making any adjustment.
Outdoorialtitude operation
Ifthe compressor is installed outdoors or ifthe air inlet temperature can be below freezing point, precautions
must be taken. In this case, and also if operating at high altitude, consult the Customer Centre,
Movingllifting
‘The compressor can be moved by a lift truck using the slots in the frame. Make sure that the forks protrude
from the other side of the frame. The compressor can also be lifted after inserting beams in the slots. Make
sure that the beams cannot slide and that they protrude from the frame equally. The chains must be held parallel
to the bodywork by chain spreaders in order not to damage the compressor. The lifting equipment must be
placed in such a way that the compressor is lifted perpendicularly. Lift gently and avoid twisting,

Function
Upon @ start command (either local or remote) the automatic operation contaet will close. This signal will be
used by the customer to start a generator. A feedback signal from the generator (closed = ready) is connected
(oan additional Digital input on the Mk IV module (programmed as permissive start function). When this
input is OK within a certain time the unit will start.

Manually unloading
Press “Unload” key (F3), LED (8) goes out. The message “Manually Unloaded” appears on the display. The
compressor remains running unloaded unless it is loaded again manually
Manually loading
Press “Load” key (F3), LED (8) lights up. The command “Load” does not force the compressor into loaded
condition, but it will switch the compressor to automatic operation again; the compressor will be loaded if
the air net pressure drops below the programmed level.
