8 Operating instructions
8.1 Initial start-up
Safety precautions
The operator must apply all relevant Safety precautions.
Ambient conditions / altitude opeartion
Refer to
Limitations for the limits of ambient conditions and altitude operation. If the compressor is
operated beyond these limits, precautions must be taken. If this is the case, consult your Atlas Copco
Customer Center.
Moving/lifting
In order not to damage the frame, the compressor must be moved either by a lift truck or by using lifting
equipment as described below.
When moving the compressor with a lift truck, use the slots in the frame. Make sure that the forks protrude
from the other side of the frame. When moving the compressor with a lifting device, insert 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.
General preparation
Make sure that the compressor is installed correctly.
See Dimension drawing, Installation proposal and Electric cable size, fuses and cable length.
A sticker summarizing the operating instructions is delivered with the compressor. Affix the sticker next to
the control panel.
A number of VCI (Volatile Corrosion Inhibitor) plates are available inside the bodywork to protect the
compressor against corrosion during transport. Remove these plates.
Protection during transport
The compressor and motor are secured to the frame, immobilizing the vibration dampers during transport.
All transport fixtures are painted red and must be removed.
