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.
