Troubleshooting Guide
The air compressor should be turned
off and unplugged from the power
source before any maintenance is performed as well as the
air bled from the tank and the unit allowed time to cool.
Personal injuries could occur from moving parts, electrical
sources, compressed air, or hot surfaces.
PROBLEM POSSIBLE CORRECTION
Air leak from safety valve. Operate the safety valve manually by pulling on the ring. If the valve continues to
leak when in the closed position, it should be replaced.
Pressure reading on the
regulated pressure gauge
drops when an accessory is
used.
Excessive tank pressure.
Air leaks from the tank body
tank welds.
If there is an excessive amount of pressure drop when the accessory is used,
replace the regulator.
NOTE:
Adjust the regulated pressure under flow conditions (while accessory is being used).
It is normal for the gauge to show minimal pressure loss during initial use of the
tool.
Move the On/Off switch to the OFF position. If the unit doesn't shut off, unplug it
from the power source and contact a local authorized service center.
Never drill into, weld or otherwise modify the air tank. The tank can rupture or
explode. Contact a local authorized service center if a replacement tank is needed.
