AIR COMPRESSOR
Air compressor maintenance consists of keeping the unit clean and dry. Be sure to store the unit in a
clean and dry environment, where it will not be exposed to excessive dust, dirt, moisture or any
corrosive vapors. Cooling slots should always be clean and free from clogs.
Note: Do not use a garden hose to clean the air compressor. Water can enter the fuel and intake
system and cause problems.
● To clean the air compressor, use a damp cloth to wipe the exterior surface.
● Use a soft bristle brush to loosen caked on dirt of oil.
● Use a vacuum cleaner to pick up loose dirt and debris.
● Compressed air (not to exceed 25psi) may be used to blow away dirt.

Turn the fuel valve off and remove the sediment cup with the O-ring. Wash them thoroughly in
non-flammable solvent. Dry them thoroughly and reinstall them tightly. Turn the fuel valve ON
and look for leaks.
Note: Try not to spill fuel, if the fuel is spilled, clean the area first before starting the engine. The
engine will create a spark when started, so if there is fuel around, it may ignite the fuel causing a
serious fire or explosion.

● Remove the wire from the spark plug.
● Use a deep socket or spark plug socket to remove the spark plug.
● Check for mechanical damage and or carbon buildup.
● If the spark plug is fouled, replace spark plug with new one.
● Spark plugs may come pre gapped, if not an ordinary gap of. 7mm or.028 inches would
do just fine. To fix a gap, bead the side of the electrode with a spark plug gapping tool.
Note: Make sure the replacement spark plug is in the correct heat range. An incorrect heat range
spark plug can damage your engine. Also, never tough the muffler during or after the engine has
been run.
● Make sure the spark plug washer is in good condition or brand-new.
● Threat the spark plug in by hand first before using a tool. This will prevent stripping the
threads on the cylinder head assembly and the spark plug.
