1 - To check for air leaks apply a solution of soapy water around joints. While compres- sor is pumping to pressure and after pressure cuts out, look for air bubbles to form.

2 - Remove tank from service. For more information, call our Customer Care Center at 1-800-556-6696

** The pump oil must be changed after the first 20 hours of operation. Thereafter, when using ISO 100/SAE40, non-detergent, premium air compressor oil, change oil every 200 hours of operation or once a year, whichever comes first.

+ Perform more frequent in dusty or humid conditions

Checking Safety Valve (Fig. 1)

Hot surfaces. Risk of burn. Aftercooler, pump head, and surrounding parts are very hot, do not touch (see the Hot Surfaces identified in Fig. 2). Allow compressor to cool prior to servicing.

Risk of bursting. If the safety valve does not work properly, over-pressurization may occur, causing air tank rupture or an explosion.

Risk from flying objects. Always wear certified safety equipment :

ANSI Z87.1 eye protection (CAN/CSA Z94.3) with side shields when using the compressor.

Before starting compressor, pull the ring on the safety valve to make sure that the safety valve operates freely. If the valve is stuck or does not operate smoothly, it must be replaced with the same type of valve.

Checking Air Filter Element (Fig. 1)

Hot surfaces. Risk of burn. Aftercooler, pump head, and surrounding parts are very hot, do not touch (see the Hot Surfaces identified in Fig. 2). Allow compressor to cool prior to servicing.

1.Ensure the On/Off switch (A) is in the OFF position.

2.Allow unit to cool.

3.Remove air filter (L) from unit.

4.If element needs cleaning, blow out with air. Replace if needed. Purchase replacement parts from your local dealer or authorized service center. Always use identical replacement parts.
