NOTE: See "Operation" section for
the location of controls.
To ensure efficient operation and
longer life of the air compressor unit,
a routine maintenance schedule
should be prepared and followed.
The following routine maintenance
schedule is geared to an unit in a
normal working environment
operating on a daily basis. If
necessary, the schedule should be
modified to suit the conditions under
which your compressor is used. The
modifications will depend upon the
hours of operation and the working
environment. Compressor units in an
extremely dirty and/or hostile
environment will require a greater
frequency of all maintenance checks.
Risk of Unsafe
Operation. Unit
cycles automatically when power is
on. When servicing, you may be
exposed to voltage sources,
compressed air, or moving parts.
Before servicing unit unplug or
disconnect electrical supply to the
air compressor, bleed tank of
pressure, and allow the air
compressor to cool.
To Check Safety Valve
Risk of Bursting. If
the safety valve
does not work properly, over-
pressurization may occur, causing
air tank rupture or an explosion.
1. Before starting compressor, pull
the ring on the safety valve to
make sure that the safety valve
operates freely. If the valve is
stuck or does not operate
smoothly, it must be replaced
with the same type of valve.
