5.3.
Operations to be carried out every 50 hours
(or more frequently, if the compressor operates in a dusty
atmosphere):
a)
Remove the air filter element (fig.8). Using stored air from
the compressor's tank, clean the filter with compressed air.
(Wear eye protection and DO NOT direct
air towards the body or hands). DO NOT operate the
compressor without the filter as foreign bodies or dust could
seriously damage the pump. Replace the filter element and
air filter housing.
b)
Check for oil leaks.
5.4.
Operations to be carried out every 100 hours:
a)
Check the automatic cut-out at max. pressure and the
automatic cut-in at 2bar below.
5.5.
Operations to be carried out every 400 hours:
a)
Replace the lubricating oil. For oil specifications see 5.7.
Remove the dipstick, then remove the oil drainer plug
(fig.4), draining the oil into a container. Drain when the
compressor is hot so that the oil drains rapidly and completely.
Replace oil drain plug and refill through the dipstick.
DO NOT overfill. Replace dipstick.
WARNING! Never mix different oils and DO NOT use
non-detergent/low quality oils as the compressor may be
damaged.
WARNING! Dispose of waste oil only in accordance with
local authority requirements.
b)
Replace air filter. (See fig.8)
c)
Check all tube fittings and electrical connections.
d)
Inspect pressure tank inside and out for damage or corrosion.

Inspection of pressure tank both inside and out.
Under the PRESSURE SYSTEMS SAFETY REGULATIONS 2000 it is
the responsibility of the owner of the compressor to initiate a system of
inspection that both defines the frequency of the inspection and appoints
a person who has specific responsibility for carrying out the inspection.

IMPORTANT WARNING - Air contaminants taken into the
compressor will affect optimum performance. Example: Body filler
dust or paint overspray will clog the pump intake filter and may
cause internal damage to pump/motor components. Please note
that any parts damaged by any type of contamination will not be
covered by warranty.
