2.1 Description o the workplace
Whenever the model is a table model place it on a firm and stable table. Place the model on the
ground in a well ventilated and luminated space when you’re dealing with a floor model. Make sure
the Audionvac isn’t exposed to sunshine, extreme temperatures, humidity, dust or sand.
The Audionvac mustn’t be exposed to mechanical shocks and vibrations. Always leave room free
around the machine.
+ = OK ?!
Make sure the voltage, consumption and frequency of the power supply are the same as on the identification panel
2.2 Checking the oil level
Make sure the Audionvac is in the OFF position. If necessary switch the main switch to the OFF
position see fig. 3.1) before one can start with the process of connecting the power supply.
In order to be able to check the oil level the machine must be at a flat underground, well leveled.
The oil level glass figure 2.2b) has been mounted in one of the sides of the machine, or in the
backside of the machine. The oil level must lie between the signs: “MIN” and “MAX”. For the
machines the rule is that the oil reservoir must be filled until 80%. An exception is the VMS43
from which the oil reservoir must be filled only until 60%. A little less oil is better than a bit more.
In practice this means that the oil in the oil reservoir mustn’t be higher than 2mm above the
measurement point in the middle of the measurement-glass.
=
When the oil reservoir is empty it must e filled with oil first
To replace the oil or to fill the oil reservoir you do the following:
− Turn off the machine.
− Loosen the oil drain plug (figure 2.2c) and drain
the oil.
− In case the oil drain plug is behind de back
plate, remove the back plate.
− When there is no oil drain plug present, the oil
level glass functions as drain plug (figure 2.2b).
− Mount the oil drain plug again.
− or further instructions see: “filling oil reservoir”
− Turn off the machine.
− Unscrew oil filling plug (figure 2.2a) above the oil
level glass.
− In case the oil-filling plug is behind de back plate,
remove the back plate.
− Pour in new oil and let the oil level stabilize after
every little bit.
− Repeat this until the oil level has reached the right
level (look at the oil level glass).
− Screw the oil-filling plug back on.
− Mount the back plate again.
