To ensure efficient operation and lon-
ger life of the air compressor, a routine
maintenance schedule should be pre-
pared and followed. The above 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 your air compressor is used.
The modifications will depend upon
the hours of operation and the work-
ing environment. Compressors in an
extremely dirty and/or hostile environ-
ment will require a greater frequency of
all maintenance checks.
NOTE:See Operation section for the
location of controls.
