INSPECTION, MAINTENANCE, AND CLEANING
1. CAUTION: Always disconnect the Air Compressor from its electrical supply source
before performing any inspection, maintenance, or cleaning.
2. BEFORE EACH USE, inspect the general condition of the Air Compressor. Check
all air fittings for leaks. Check for loose screws, misalignment or binding of moving
parts, cracked or broken parts, damaged power cord and plug, and any other con-
dition that may affect the safe operation of this tool. If abnormal noise or vibration
occurs, immediately disconnect the Air Compressor from its electrical supply source
and have the problem corrected before further use.
Do not use damaged equipment.
3.
DAILY: Check the Air Compressor oil level. If necessary, fill with a premium quality,
30-weight, non-detergent oil.
NOTE: When checking the oil level, make sure to
unscrew (do not pull) the Dip Stick (14B). (See Assy. Diagram B.)
4. DAILY: Purge the Air Tank (9A) of all air and moisture to prevent corrosion. To do
so, slowly and carefully unscrew (no more than four threads) the Water Drain Valve
(10A) until the compressed air and condensation begins to be released from the Air
Tank. Allow sufficient time for all of the air and condensation to escape from the Air
Tank. Then, firmly retighten the Water Drain Valve. (See Assy. Diagram A.)
5. EVERY 100 HOURS OF USE: Clean the Air Filter (7A) with a mild solvent. Then,
dry and reattach the Air Filter.
NOTE: Replace the Air Filter if it is too dirty to
properly clean. (See Assy. Diagram A.)
6. EVERY 500 HOURS OR 12 MONTHS: Replace the old oil with new, premium qual-
ity, 30-weight, non-detergent oil.
7. TO CLEAN: wipe with a damp cloth, using a mild detergent or mild solvent.
8. WHEN STORING: Keep the Air Compressor in a clean, dry location.

motor. If this occurs, shut off the pressure switch and wait at least 5 minutes.
Release the air pressure in the tank to ease restarting. Then press the breaker
button to reset it, and turn on the pressure switch.
