SRS-40 Owner’s Manual Air Operations (SRS-40P) Operating Notes: Activating the compressor switch sends This rotary screw compressor must not be power to the cooling fan and normally used for breathing air. To do so will cause closed terminal (87A) of the Bosch relay.
The following table is a list of routine maintenance items, including service intervals. Service intervals are listed as hours, days, or weeks, whichever occurs first. American Eagle recom- mends that these service intervals be followed. Before performing any maintenance func- tion, turn off compressor, hydraulic system, truck engine and remove keys to assure that compressor is not started.
SRS-40 Owner’s Manual Oil Level The oil level in the compressor case is an important factor for the operational reliability of the system. Check Intervals: 1. Before starting unit. 2. Every 100 operating hours Check Procedures: 1. Turn off the compressor, hydraulic system and truck engine to ensure that compressor is not start- 2.
Maintenance Changing the Oil WARNING: COMPRESSOR MUST BE STOPPED AND ALL AIR RECEIVERS DISCHARGED BEFORE CHANGING OIL. COMPRESSOR OIL IS HOT, ABOVE 175 DEGREES F (80 DEGREES C) AND CAN CAUSE BURNS. Note: Change the oil with the compressor at operating temperature of 140-175 degrees F (60-80 degrees C).
SRS-40 Owner’s Manual Oil Filter The oil filter is located to the front of the unit. When viewing the unit from the oil fill cap end, the oil filter will be to the left front.

SRS-40 Owner’s Manual Hydraulic Oil Cooler/Compressor Oil Cooler For reliable operation and longevity of both compressor and hydraulic system, the cooler should be kept clean. The compressor system is protected from operation at high temper- ature by a switch gauge. If the compressor shuts down or is operating close to the shut down temperature, the cooler should be cleaned.

A 3/4” minimum low-pressure return line is connected to the oil cooler outlet and is routed to the oil reservoir. American Eagle recommends a sufficient sized reservoir be provided that includes the proper suction and return filters. The cooler on the compressor is designed and sized to cool the air compressor efficiently.
Troubleshooting Chapter 8 - Troubleshooting If symptoms of poor performance develop, the following chart can be used as a guide to investigate and correct the problem. When diagnosing faults in operations of the air compressor, always check that the hydraulic power source is supplying the correct hydraulic flow and pressure that is listed in the compressor specification section of this manual.
