ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
This section refers to the various components which require periodic maintenance and
replacement.
The Maintenance Chart indicates the various components' descriptions and the intervals when
maintenance has to take place. Oil capacities, etc., can be found in the General Data Section.

Compressed air can be dangerous if incorrectly handled. Before doing any work on the unit,
ensure that all pressure is vented from the system and that the machine cannot be started
accidentally.
If the automatic blowdown fails to operate, then pressure must be gradually relieved by
operating the manual blowdown valve. Suitable personal protective equipment should be
worn.
Ensure that maintenance personnel are adequately trained, competent and have read the
Maintenance Manuals.
