NOTE: For constant run operation or units: after the compressor
reaches cut-out pressure the unit will continue to run but will not charge
air. A slight air noise may be heard which is the unloading of the air
through the pump head. For Stop/Start units: after the compressor
reaches cut-out pressure the unit will turn off and a slight air noise will
be heard which is the unloading of the head through the pressure
switch. If unit does not stop, refer to the Dual Control section in the
Common Procedures section.
NOTE: If any unusual noise or vibration is noticed, stop the
compressor and refer to the troubleshooting section.

Check pump oil level X
Oil leak inspection X
Drain condensation in air tank(s) X
Check for unusual noise/vibration X
Check for air leaks* X
Inspect belt X
Inspect air filter X
Clean exterior of compressor X
Check safety relief valve X
Check belt adjustment X
Change pump oil ** X
* To check for air leaks apply a solution of soapy water around joints.
While compressor is pumping to pressure and after pressure cuts out
look for air bubbles.
** The pump oil must be changed after the first 20 hours of operation.
Thereafter, when using D
EWALT synthetic oil, change oil every 200
hours of operation or once a year, whichever comes first. In harsh
environments, maintenance must be performed on a more accelerated
schedule.
