3. Remove hose and accessory.
DANGER: Risk of bursting. Drain tank daily. Water will condense in tank.
If not drained, water will corrode and weaken the tank causing a risk of
tank rupture.
4. Drain the air tank, see Draining Air Tank under Maintenance.
Ensure air tank pressure gauge reads 0 PSI (0 kPa).
5. Allow the air compressor to cool down.
6. Unplug air compressor and wrap cord loosely around handle.
7. Wipe compressor clean and store in a safe, non-freezing area.
Maintenance
To ensure efficient operation and longer life of the air
compressor, a routine maintenance schedule should be
prepared and followed. The following routine maintenance
schedule is geared to an air compressor in a normal working
environment operating on a daily basis. If necessary, the
schedule should be modified to suit the conditions under which
the air compressor is used. The modifications will depend upon
the hours of operation and the working environment. An air
compressor in an extremely dirty and/or hostile environment will
require a greater frequency of all maintenance checks.
Maintenance Schedule
Procedure
Check safety valve
Inspect air filter
Drain tank
Check pump oil level
Change pump oil
Oil leak inspection
Inspect drive belt
Check drive belt tension
Check pulley/flywheel alignment
Check for unusual noise/vibration
Check for air leaks
Clean air compressor exterior
Remove tank from service
* To check for air leaks apply a solution of soapy water around joints.
While air compressor is pumping to pressure and after
pressure cuts out, look for air bubbles to form.
** The pump oil must be changed after the first 20 hours of operation.
Thereafter, when using full synthetic non-detergent air compressor
oil, change oil every 100 hours of operation or once a year,
whichever comes first.
+ Perform more frequently in dusty or humid conditions.
