V100-VL400 User Manual – Maintenance
1.6 Leaks
Inspect the unit for leaks, loose pipe connections
and dirt build-up prior to carrying out routine
maintenance. Tighten loose connections and repair
or replace damaged pipes immediately.
1.7 Regular Checks
The 'Maintenance Schedule' lists the routine checks
and services which are important for the efficient
running of the compressor. The user should ensure
that the Daily and Weekly Checks become an
integral part of planned maintenance, even if the
major servicing work is contracted to a CompAir
Distributor.
1.8 Lubricating Oil
It is essential to maintain the correct level of oil and
to change the oil completely at the specified
intervals. Details of the recommended oil are given
in 'Leading Particulars'.
2. MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE
Regular maintenance should be carried out as
recommended in the Schedule below. The Schedule
is appropriate to most normal circumstances but in
some instances, changes in detail may be required.
The Schedule should always be used as an initial
guide, but if experience shows that an alteration is
necessary, advice should be sought from the local
CompAir distributor.
The services for lubricated and oil free compressors
are almost identical. Any variations are indicated in
the schedule and should be observed.
