If it is dirty, replace it with a new filter.
1. Using a pair of needle nose pliers or a screwdriver pull or
pry out the old filter and carefully clean the filter area.
2. Push the new air filter in place. Refer to the "Repair Parts"
for the correct part number.
IMPORTANT: Do not operate the compressor with the air filter removed.
Safety Valve-Replacement
If the safety valve does not work properly, over-
pressurization can occur and cause air tank rupture or
explosion. Daily pull the ring on the safety valve and make sure it operates
freely. If the valve is stuck or does not operate smoothly, it must be
replaced with the same type of valve having an identical pressure rating.
To Remove Safety Valve:
1. Make sure the air compressor unit is off and
disconnect the spark plug wire.
2. Open the shut-off valve and allow all air to bleed
from the tank. Monitor tank pressure gauge as
tank is emptied.
3. When tank is empty, remove safety valve (A) from
manifold.
To Install New Safety Valve:
1. Verify new safety valve is the correct pressure rating
for your air compressor.
2. Verify threads for safety valve in manifold are clean.
3. Apply thread sealant to the threads of new safety valve.
4. Install new safety valve and tighten securely.
5. Reconnect spark plug wire to engine.
