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 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.
NOTE: See "Operation" section for the location of controls.
