Air compressor pump intake and exhaust valves
can occur. Before performing any maintenance or repair, disconnect power source from the compressor
and bleed off all air pressure.
To ensure efficient operation and longer life of the air compressor outfit, a routine maintenance schedule should
be prepared and followed. The following routine maintenance schedule is geared to an outfit in a normal working
environment operating on a daily basis. If necessary, the schedule should be modified to suit the conditions
under which your compressor is used. The modifications will depend upon the hours of operation and the work-
ing environment. Compressor outfits in an extremely dirty and/or hostile environment will require a greater fre-
quency of all maintenance checks.
NOTE: For the location of controls see "Discription of Operation" in the "Operation" section of this manual.
To Check Safety Valve
pressurization may occur, causing air tank
rupture or an explosion. Before starting com-
pressor, 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.

To Drain Tank

1. Set the On/Auto/Off lever to "OFF".
2. Close the globe valve.
3. Remove the air tool or accessory.
4. Open the globe valve and allow the air to slowly
bleed from the air tank until tank pressure is
approximately 20 psi.
5. Drain water from air tank by opening drain valve
(counter-clockwise) on bottom of tank.
drained, water will corrode and weaken the air
tank causing a risk of air tank rupture.
