Risk of Unsafe
Operation. Unit cycles automatically when power is on. When servicing, you may be exposed to voltage sources, compressed air, or moving parts. Before servicing unit unplug or disconnect electrical supply to the air compressor, bleed tank of pressure, and allow the air compressor to cool.
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.
