NOTE: See "Operation" section for the location of controls.
To ensure efficient operation and longer life of the air compressor outfit,
a routine maintenance schedule should be prepared and followed. The
following routine maintenance schedule is geared to an outfit in a normal
working environment operating on a daily basis. If necessary, the schedule
should be modified to suit the conditions under which your compressor is
used. The modifications will depend upon the hours of operation and the
working environment. Compressor outfits in an extremely dirty and/or hostile
environment will require a greater frequency of all maintenance checks.
Pantone 165- Warning orange
Unit cycles automatically when power is on. When
performing maintenance, you may be exposed to voltage
sources, compressed air, or moving parts. Personal injuries can occur.
Before performing any maintenance or repair, disconnect power source
from the compressor and bleed off all air pressure.
To Check Safety Valve
Pantone 165- Warning orange
If the safety valve does not work properly, over-
pressurization may occur, causing air tank rupture or an
explosion.
1. Before starting compressor, pull the ring on the safety valve to make
sure that the safety valve operates freely. If the valve is stuck or does not
operate smoothly, it must be replaced with the same type of valve.
To Drain Tank
1. Set the On/Auto/Off lever to "OFF".
2. Pull the regulator knob out and turn counterclockwise to set the outlet
pressure to zero.
3. Remove the air tool or accessory.
4. Pull ring on safety valve allowing air to bleed from the tank until tank
pressure is approximately 20 psi. Release safety valve ring.
5. Drain water from air tank by opening drain valve (counter-clockwise) on
bottom of tank.
