MAINTENANCE 41

. the machine cannot be started accidently or otherwise.

Prior to attempting any maintenance work on a running machine, ensure that:–

DANGER

Only properly trained and competent persons should undertake any maintanence tasks with the compressor running or with electrical power connected.

. the work carried out is limited to only those tasks which require the machine to run.

. the work carried out with safety protection devices disabled or removed is limited to only those tasks which require the machine to be running with safety protection devices disabled or removed.

. all hazards present are known (e.g. pressurised components, electrically live components, removed panels, covers and guards, extreme temperatures, inflow and outflow of air, intermittently moving parts, safety valve discharge etc.).

. appropriate personal protective equipment is worn.

. loose clothing, jewellery, long hair etc. is made safe.

. warning signs indicating that Maintenance Work is in Progress are posted in a position that can be clearly seen.

Upon completion of maintenance tasks and prior to returning the machine into service, ensure that:–

. the machine is suitably tested.

. all guards and safety protection devices are refitted and correctly working.

. all panels are replaced, canopy and doors closed.

. hazardous materials are effectively contained and disposed of in a manner compliant with local or National environmental protection

codes.

WARNING

Do not under any circumstances open any drain valve or remove components from the compressor without first ensuring that the compressor is FULLY SHUT– DOWN, power isolated and all air pressure relieved from the system.

TOP UP COOLANT PROCEDURE

The reservoir is designed to prevent overfill. With warm unit stopped in the normal way, coolant should be at the top of the sight glass. The level should not drop beyond the bottom of the sight glass when running with steady load.

CAUTION

Ensure that SSR ULTRA coolant is used. Failure to do so will void manufacturers warranty.

COOLANT CHANGE PROCEDURE

It is better to drain the coolant immediately after the compressor has been operating as the liquid will drain more easily and any contaminant will still be in suspension.

1.Stop the machine, electrically isolate and vent all trapped pressure.

2.Place a suitable container close to the drain valve.

3.Slowly remove fill/vent cap.

4.Remove plug from drain valve.

5.Open the drain valve and drain coolant into container.

6.Close the drain valve.

7.Replace plug in drain valve.

8.Refill the machine following the ”top up coolant” procedure above. After initial fill, to purge any airlocks, the machine should be run for a few minutes cycling between load and no load, before checking that the level is correct.

9.Replace and tighten oil fill cap.

COOLANT FILTER CHANGE PROCEDURE

1.Stop the machine, electrically isolate and vent all trapped pressure.

2.Loosen filter with the correct tool.

3.Remove the filter from the housing.

4.Place the old filter in a sealed bag and dispose of in a safe way.

5.Clean the mating face of the housing taking care to avoid any particles entering the machine.

6.Remove the new Ingersoll Rand replacement filter from its protective package.

7.Apply a small amount of lubricant to the filter seal.

8.Screw the new filter down until the seal makes contact with the housing, then hand tighten a further half turn.

9.Start the compressor and check for leaks.

AIR FILTER ELEMENT CHANGE PROCEDURE

1.Stop the machine, electrically isolate and vent all trapped pressure.

2.Unclip the retaining cap and withdraw the old element.

3.Fit the new element.

4.Replace the retaining cap.
