INSPECTION, LUBRICATION, AND MAINTENANCE

This section contains instructions for performing the inspection, lubrication, and maintenance
procedures required to maintain the compressor in proper operating condition. The importance of
performing the maintenance described herein cannot be over emphasized.
The periodic maintenance procedures to be performed on the equipment covered by this manual
are listed below. It should be understood that the intervals between inspections specified are
maximum interval. More frequent inspections should be made if the unit is operating in a dusty
environment, in high ambient temperature, or in other unusual conditions. A planned program of
periodic inspection and maintenance will help avoid premature failure and costly repairs. Daily
visual inspections should become a routine.
The LUBRICATION AND MAINTENANCE CHART lists serviceable items on this compressor
package. The items are listed according to their frequency of maintenance, followed by those
items which need only "As Required" maintenance.
The maintenance time intervals are expressed in hours. The hourmeter shows the
total number of hours your compressor has run. Use the hourmeter readings for determining your
maintenance schedules. Perform the maintenance at multiple intervals of the hours shown. For
example, when the hourmeter shows "100" on the dial, all items listed under "EVERY 10 HOURS"
should be serviced for the tenth time, and all items under "EVERY 50 HOURS" should be
serviced for the second time, and so on.
COMPRESSOR MUST BE SHUT DOWN AND COMPLETELY RELIEVED OF
PRESSURE PRIOR TO CHECKING FLUID LEVELS. OPEN SERVICE VALVE TO
ENSURE RELIEF OF SYSTEM AIR PRESSURE. FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THIS
WARNING MAY CAUSE DAMAGE TO PROPERTY AND SERIOUS BODILY HARM.
