Blown gaskets.

Replace blown gaskets and torque head bolts to 20 ft./lbs.

 

 

CAUTION — Replace head gasket with a new one each time

 

 

the head is removed to ensure proper sealing.

 

 

 

Air leaks at fittings:

Fittings are not tight enough.

Tighten fittings where air can be heard escaping. Check fittings with soapy water solution. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.

Restricted air intake filter.

Clean or replace the filter element.

 

Air leaks.

Check for leaks by applying soap solution to all fittings and

 

 

connections. Bubbles will appear at leakage points. Tighen or

 

 

replace leaking fittings or connections as needed.

Hose or hose connections are too small or long.

Replace with larger hose or connectors.

Air compressor is not large enough for air requirement.

Check the accessory air requirement. If it is higher than the CFM or pressure supply of the air compressor, you need a larger air compressor.

Leaking (reed) valve.

Drain air tank and measure pump up time. Compare to

 

 

 

specifications. If lower, remove pump head and inspect valve

 

 

plate, valve seats, and valve reeds. Clean or replace as needed.

 

Restricted pilot valve.

Clean or replace.

 

Low compression.

Low pressure may be due to worn piston rings and cylinder

 

 

walls. Inspect for excessive wear and replace worn parts as

 

 

needed.

Clean or replace air filter element.

 

Air compressor on unlevel surface.

Do not incline the air compressor more than 10 degrees in

 

 

any direction while running.

Repair.

 

Worn piston rings or scored cylinder.

Replace worn or damaged parts as needed.

 

Improper oil viscosity.

Drain oil. Refill to proper level with 30 weight non-detergent

 

 

air compressor oil.

 

 

 

Oil has milky appearance:

Water in oil due to condensation.

Change oil and move air compressor to a less humid environment.

Moisture in discharge air:

Condensation in air tank caused by

 

high level of atmospheric humidity or
